Pel and the faceless corpse

There's quite a few Pel books featuring many of the same characters. They are, like this one, a good read. Characterisation is good and consistent through all the books.

A struggle to get into this, set in a place I do not know, with loads of characters with names and occupations that are new to me. I persevered though and by the end was quite enjoying it - certainly enough to want to read more.
