The King Arthur Case
The King Arthur Case: A Brittany Mystery | Jean-Luc Bannalec
5 posts | 5 read
The King Arthur Case is the seventh installment of Jean-Luc Bannalec's bestselling mystery series. The forest of Broceliande, with its picturesque lakes and castles, is the last remnant of the fairy kingdom, if Breton lore is to be believed. Innumerable legends spanning thousands of years are set here, inclding the tale of King Arthur and the Round Table. It seems to be an appropriate destination for Commissaire Dupin and his team to take a late summer field trip. But when the body of a historian turns up, Dupin is called upon to investigate in the brutal murder case. Before too long, there are more victims. What knowledge do the assembled scientists have about the most recent archaeological digs in the area? Where do they stand on the controversial decision to turn parts of the forest into an amusement park? And why is no one willing to talk? Even Nolwenn, Dupin's unshakeable assistant, is concerned. And that means trouble. Mysterious, ingenious, and suspenseful: Dupin's seventh case takes him and his team into the very heart of Brittany.

I really enjoyed the literary theme of this crime novel centering around the arthurian legend and it‘s breton roots. It was however a bit crammed, stuffing a 24hr plot into a 14hr audiobook. Comissaire Dupin and his team are, howrver, as relatable as ever in the series seventh installment. #audiobookvacation

Got up super early today for a spontaneous long weekend with my parents for my father‘s birthday. When not nodding off uncomfortably in the back seat the 7hr drive actually got me quite a way into this arthurian legend inspired crime novel

I‘m always a bit biased with this series because I feel like he tries a bit to write like Walker and also there‘s too much conversation in the writing for my liking. But this one I liked a lot! It‘s a completely different setting with the fairy-forest, the Arthus-Saga and the scientists-world and there are also a couple of little climaxes in the story.
