Book Description
A runaway international bestseller and winner of Spain’s top literary prize, Little Indiscretions is part ingeniously entertaining whodunit and part sparkling social satire.
Business is slow for Nestor Chaffino, pastry chef to the rich and famous, until he’s invited to cater a party in a villa on the Costa del Sol. When Nestor is found frozen to death in a walk-in freezer with a notebook in his hand, the party guests gathered that evening are the natural suspects. But who could have it in for a harmless cook?
The answer, it turns out, is just about everyone who happens to be staying in the house. Nestor, while quietly stirring his sauces and whisking his egg whites, had decided to publish a compendium of gastronomic secrets that revealed, along with the culinary tricks of his trade, more than a few damning details of the hosts’ and houseguests’ private lives. To what lengths would they go to ensure that Nestor maintained a more permanent sense of discretion?
Not since Nick and Nora Charles’s last cocktail party has such a merry band of mischief makers convened in one place. Little Indiscretions marks the discovery of a phenomenal writer with tremendous flair. It’s a gourmet treat readers will pounce on.
From the Hardcover edition.

A let down.......2007-08-19
I was engaged in this novel until the end, which I found a HUGE letdown. It wasn't that I necessarily disliked the ending, but it made the rest of the novel pointless. Posadas' writing is quite good, but her storytelling is lacking. In the end, all the threads never really come together.
Each of these characters has something to hide and each fears the main character will reveal those secrets or "little indiscretions." An intriguing premise, but it ended like a bad foreign film...from the 1960s.
Intelligent, original, delightful.......2005-11-30
This little gem is about as far from the cliche "spunky single mom investigates murder for no fathomable reason and falls in love with the cop, recipes/crosswords/knitting patterns included" fluffy frothy books as you can get. Not only is there no spunky single mom - there's no cop. Nor are there recipes. There's a lot of talk about recipes - but that's all.
Nevertheless, it passes all the tests. It's got the "Gee what happens next?" factor that keeps you turning pages. It has lovely writing (my compliments to the translator). It has non-cardboard characters whose lives are woven together in unexpected but believable ways. And if the ending isn't a tidy tying up with a big pink bow and a chocolate mint, well, life is like that.
A very unusual, elegant, highly entertaining, well crafted, funny, heart-tugging and shocking novel. Just wonderful.
no point.......2005-08-02
the book starts with the death of a highly renowned pastry chef. then it goes to describe other characters, not even mentioning the death pf of the pastry chef. the description of the characters are very good, but they should be after most than 3/4 of the book are spent describing them. the murder isn't even discussed until the last 50 pages. and to me, the murder scenario, seemed like a let down.
Elegant.......2003-09-01
A prize-winning mystery, Little Indiscretions, is based on the death of Nestor, a pastry chef who dies in a walk-in freezer that someone locks behind him. Why? Because Nestor knew secrets about just about every other character in the book. This is a very elegant, very European, very wonderful book. Recipes are included, but just as a good book doesn't answer all of a reader's questions, neither are the recipes complete enough to permit duplication. Damn.
Little Indiscretions.......2003-08-20
Nestor Chaffino, a pointy-moustachioed pastry chef who was privy to too many secrets, found himself standing in the dark at 4:00 in the morning among the frozen carcasses in Ernesto Teldi's 1980-s model Westinghouse cool room, the door having swung shut behind him with a click and, oddly enough, a laugh. At twenty degrees below zero, Nestor didn't manage to live until morning, when a Häagen Dazs-seeking employee finally opened the door, but he did have time to come to an imperfect understanding of the circumstances of his death. The fortune teller he had seen two weeks before had given him enough information to figure out some of it.
In Little Indiscretions Carmen Posadas pieces together the coincidences and peccadilloes that surrounded Nestor's demise--not his own failings, as he was a discreet confidant, and a loyal friend, and he ran a clean kitchen, but those of his acquaintances: from his friend Carlos's love affair with a picturesque woman to the skeletons in the
Teldis' separate bedroom closets to the unwelcome longings of widower Serafin Tous.
Posadas's story is a good one, and the reader is eager, nearing the end, to discover which--if any--of the indiscretions uncovered in its course has culminated in Nestor's death by freezing. But I found the solution to Nestor's puzzle, the reason, finally, that the freezer door closed behind him, hard to believe. The story was also more difficult to follow than it might have been because the author tells it in disconnected chunks, going backward in time from Nestor's death, then forward, and incorporating memories of much older, yet still haunting, events.

Customer Reviews:
Terrible book.......2006-07-12
This book was terrible - the writing dragged and the plot was lame. The story had little to do with dragons (the hero could change into a dragon but rarely did so, and for no real heroic purpose). The djinn was hardly even a character in the story, despite being given credit in the title. This book should only be read by a die-hard fan of medieval knights.
Well the Djinn is a Genie in a bottle.......2001-06-18
The book was pretty good but nothing stands out in my mind when I think of it. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful
A little on the disappointing side.......2000-09-09
Althought I love the entire series of these books this one only grabs your attention at the end of the book. Admittidly this has a very exciting ending but the body of the book was much slower than the rest. Of course I still enjoyed the battle of the Jim and Brian but it seemed to stray too far away from the other books. However if you have come this far you have to keep going becuase the following books raise back up to the usual standard that is expected. So in short, read the book. It isn't bad but you have to do it to get to the next two which are much better.
One of the best in the series.......1999-09-13
After the first two books in this series, this was the best. We finally get to see what happened to Geronde's father. And there's a wonderful moment when Angie seemingly defies the rules of magick (and upsets Carolinus quite a bit in the process)--delightful! The only pssible way it could have been improved is if Daffydd had had a nice large role, too. *sigh* (Okay, I'm obsessed with Daffydd.) Great book!
Very Entertaining.......1999-06-26
This is the first of this series that I've read and I thought it was highly imaginative. His alternative uses of magic as based on a 20th century person's perspective were most enjoyable. I'll certainly be looking for the other books in this series.

Customer Reviews:
Kosciusko suddenly turns bland.......2007-06-06
Ideally, succeeding installments of a multi part saga should build on what's come before, amplifying established themes while exploring new ground. When done right, a long series can hold readers' attention and still present a challenge to the writer--a perfect example of this ideal is Dan Simmons' Hyperion Cantos, a tetralogy whose many virtues were extolled by Bill Sheehan in the previous issue of Nova Express. Most such efforts , however, do not achieve this ideal--a case in point is Susan Matthew's Andrej Kosciusko series. Despite the promise shown in Matthew's debut, the justifiably acclaimed AN EXCHANGE OF HOSTAGES, later novels have not fulfilled this potential.
The character driven EXCHANGE, runner up for the 1997 Philip K. Dick Award, introduced the charismatic Andrej Kosciusko, a brilliant surgeon who discovers he has a penchant for torture, a skill highly prized by the Fleet, the dominating political/military force in a far future interstellar civilization. In EXCHANGE, Matthews created a strong cast of characters and established an intriguing sociopolitical context, all the while milking Kosciusko's fragile psyche to great dramatic effect. Unfortunately, subsequent novels in the series-1998's PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE and now HOUR OF JUDGMENT-have not lived up to the promise of their predecessor. Matthews has written two soap operas in a row, books that squander the excellent work she did in her first novel.
HOUR OF JUDGMENT is set some four years after the events of PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE. Nearing the end of his service aboard the Fleet ship Scylla, Ship's Surgeon/Inquisitor Kosciusko is desperate to return to civilian life. The Fleet, however, has other plans for its most proficient torturer, and is working behind the scenes to force him to reenlist. Asked to treat the wounds of a slave woman brutally raped by a ship's officer, Kosciusko once again finds himself acting in the antithetical role of Inquisitor when that officer is murdered in revenge. To complicate matters, Kosciusko has been marked for death by a powerful enemy--distracted by personal problems and his role in the murder investigation, he fails to sense the many dangers around him.
As in PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE, the formerly dynamic Kosciusko is more spectator than protagonist; his once towering presence, the force behind the success of AN EXCHANGE OF HOSTAGES, has been diminished. He seems to be a different character entirely, less intelligent, passively accepting what fate brings him, rather than mastering his destiny. Distracted or not, the Kosciusko of EXCHANGE would never miss the obvious clues thrust in his face at the murder scene.
In the end, the watered down version of Kosciusko detracts from Matthew's storytelling. Despite her considerable skills, the presence of her inexplicably bland lead proves fatal to the book, which sometimes reads more like an unemotional newspaper account than a story that personally engages its readers. If this series is to continue, Matthews needs to go back to basics, to the more intimate, impassioned storytelling style evident in her debut--only then will she fulfill the considerable promise demonstrated there.
I can hardly wait for the next instalment.......2001-05-15
I would have given this 5 stars if I hadn't read "Exchange..." and "Prisoner..." first. It's not that the quality of writing is any less, or that the characters have run their course (far from it!), only that there is too great a time gap between the action at the Dommitt Prison and the story in this book. Why was Andrej transferred from Scylla? What happened to Code and Chief Sammons? And, most importantly, what has been happening to Andrej himself? The last question is only obliquely answered in "...Judgment."
The tantalising glimpses that Miss Matthews gives us of the Bench Federation of Worlds might be an excellent way of filling in these frustrating gaps. It would be fascinating to know how the bonds came to be bonds (were they Free Government? What exactly is the Free Government? &c). Miss Matthews - if you read your reviews, how about the story from Robert's point of view, or Joslire's (a wonderful but sadly wasted character)?
Having made the complaint about the series, I have to say that this is a great book, and Bruce Applebaum is gibbering! Andrej Kosciusko is simply the most extraordinary character in science fiction.
Susan Matthews is the most underrated sci-fi writer around........2001-03-15
One of Harold Bloom's criterion for great literature (he's talking about Dante, Shakespeare and Virgil) is "strangeness." He goes on to explain that the greatest literature in Western Civilization shares two seemingly conflicting characteristics--that the work is unique--he calls it "strange." It's like nothing else that's ever been written before. Yet on the other hand, the work is also familiar. Somehow the work resonantes with the reader--at once both familiar and yet strange. I think Susan Matthews falls into this cateogry very neatly. In terms of science fiction. I don't agree that this series has run its course. Her character, Andrej Kosciuscko-however-you-spell-his- name, is fascinating. He emboies the worst and best qualities of humanity. Sheri Tepper performs the same kind of feat in Grass. Though she has written many other novels, some good, some simple rehashes of her other novels, Grass has that familiar other world feel, but it is also one of the strangest worlds I've ever read. It's better than Ringworld, Gaiea, or any other world that sci-fi writers have come up with. If you haven't read this very talented writer's effort, do read them. Colony Fleet and Avalanche Soldiers are both [bad], especially Avalanche. Colony Fleet is readable but unremarkable, but Avalanche Soldier is really bad.
Susan Matthew's trilogy that feature the torturer, Andrej Koscuiscko(?????) is without a doubt the best series I've read since John Varley's Titan, Wizard and Demon. She's right up there with Joan Slonszewski, Sherri Tepper, Pamela Sargent and David Gerrold.
Excellent read........2000-01-06
This novel had much less of the sadistic torture involved and so I liked it better than its predecessors and I felt better about myself reading this one. The story however depends on the previous more violent novels for support. This novel does not stand alone without its predecessors.
It was a good novel and a good read in any case and I had difficulty putting it down. I very much look forward to Ms. Matthew's next novel I the series and how it is out soon.
Time to move on.......1999-12-14
This is the third in a series featuring the same universe and main character. What started as a rather novel premise, the inquisitor medical officer using physical and chemical means of torture in the name of "justice" has just about petered out.
Matthews is a wonderful writer, but I think she's run out of steam on this line. The writing is there, but the plot just doesn't have that Andrej zing.
I hope that her newest (Avalanche Soldier) starts fresh anew.

Book Description
Written by a leading authority on the subject, this intriguing book explores the history of Freemasonry and its relationship to many of the ancient mystical rites of Egypt, Greece, Crete, and medieval Europe. It concludes with a discussion of the Scottish Rite and the Co-Masonic Order of the twentieth century.

Freemasonry and Its Ancient Mystic Rites.......2007-01-25
This was purchased as a Christmas present and was very well received. He's enjoying it enormously.
Seership and Science.......2006-06-17
The original title to this classic work was "Glimpses of Masonic History." This showed the author's purpose to demonstrate a direct connection between modern masonry and the ancient mystery religions. How well he made this case is up to the reader to decide. Personally, it is obvious to me that there is a golden thread connecting the traditions. This is most obvious at the level of the Occult School (as opposed to the "Authentic", Anthropological", and "Mystical" Schools.)
Leadbeater showed a remarkable knowledge of the Egyptian, Cretan, Jewish, Greek, and Mithraic mysteries. This is knowledge based not merely on a deep familiarity with ancient written source works and archeological finds, but on the unconventional knowing of the clairvoyant. Leadbeater was considered one of the most distinguished clairvoyants of his day. You will find much here that is not included in more "scholarly" works. Needless to say, such knowledge is not varifiable to the satisfaction of most of the scientific establishment. Yet, this is not to say that it is in error.
The second half of the book covers the operative masonry of Medieval Times, and then the more traditional history of speculative masonry in the early 17th century. It ends with an examination of the Co-Masonic Order (a more metaphysical branch of masonry closely associated with the Theosophical Society, and which accepts both men and women.)

Free would not be a good enough price.......2006-06-10
This book was not only a waste of money, but a waste of my time to read it. This writer is out there, on a mystical scale at 10+++. It belongs in a refuse container, I wouldn't even donate it as I didn't want to make society dumber.
Illustrations.......2006-03-08
This is a reprint of a previous book. While the text is fairly good, it makes references to many illustrations which are not in the reprinted edition. Therefore, I would not recommend it!
Leadbeater's book.......2004-12-24
The gentleman who states so dismissively that masons didnt come from the Ancient Mystery Schools of Egypt should note that in Oregon many tend to style themselves as a sort of Rotarian club in regalia. I hope that you do not spend your entire life with such limits placed on your understanding of things. The corporate posturing of a few does not speak for all practicing builders. If you leave the beefsteak dinner scene alone for minute and actually travel to Egypt, you'd be surprised what you find on the walls. In the meantime, readng with such a closed mind shows an alliance with the I-ness of one's self and ego. This will inevitably cut you off from any true enlightenment. None of this validates Leadbeater's admittingly eccentric ways and writings by the way. (smile)

New insight.......2000-05-08
Most Masons of today will consider this book too metaphysical, yet as the author himself points out, there are at east three distinct kinds of Freemasonry, ie: social, mystical, and occult. He follows the thread of Freemasonry from earliest times to the present, a connection which many modern day Masons deny exists. It is true that the author was a noted clairvoyant and acquired much of his information from his own innate abilities. Nevertheless, year by year, more and more evidence keeps turning up that indeed shows the links that this man said were there. I think this book is very insightful and useful for the Freemason looking for the deeper meanings of his craft.
