5.0 out of 5 stars Warm, exciting, colorful mystery about pottery and family, 9 Jun 2001
By A Customer
Telling us about things we didn't know and reminding us of facts of life that we might have forgotten are important parts of a writer's job, and nobody performs those chores better than Margaret Maron. In the early pages of her eighth book about North Carolina judge Deborah Knott, we learn about the art and craft of making clay pottery and the collecting of these lovely objects; about the equally delicate but much more painful art of dividing community property after a divorce; and above all how if you come from a large family (as does Knott as well as most of the story's feuding characters) you don't have to go far to witness the damage love and hate can do. Called down to Randolph County - where pottery is a cottage industry - to preside over the breakup of a couple whose objects are highly prized, Deborah manages to become involved in a couple of murder investigations. She also tries to forget her faithless game warden lover with a handome judicial colleague - leading to a hilarious sight gag that reminds us of how funny Maron can be on top of everything else.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 24 Jan 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Uncommon Clay (Mass Market Paperback)
Margaret Maron's books are always worth a read and a lot better than some of the other stuff sold in the genre these days but this is a disappointing entry in the collection of Deborah Knott mysteries. The background appears meticulously researched but we just don't care enough about the characters in the murder plots and the solution is far fetched to say the least. Interesting but disappointing
