"All Brother Cadfael fans trust me, do not waste your money on collection IV. I bought it and could not get through any of the three tapes. I would have to agree with another reviewer who said that the episodes in collection IV seem to be more gruesom than the others. The characters have changed drastically. It seems that they have become less holy and even Brother Cadfael doesn't seem quite like himself. I can't really put my finger on it but Cadfael fans, just treasure the enjoyment you received from the previous episodes and forget about collection IV."
I love these stories!

"I had never read the books or of this series when I bought the videos. Maybe because of this I really enjoyed the videos. I am a fan of Sir Derek Jacobi too as I have seen him in one other program and loved his acting. He seems to be perfect in this role. If you want a unique take on detective work, these can't be beat."
A darker set of Cadfael videos

"I am a big Brother Cadfael video fan. However, the IV Series is overall a darker, more pessimisstic, and depressing set of mysteries than the previous three sets. Cadfael's fellow monks and the Abbey come across as very ugly. Even Hugh Beringer seems brutal. Overall, I did not care for this collection as much as the others."
