Giordano Bruno fiction thrillers

If you are familiar with the work of Robert Anton Wilson, you are probably familiar with the name Giordano Bruno (1548-1600), who espoused many interesting ideas until he was killed by the Inquisition. But I did not know there is a series of well-reviewed thrillers starring Bruno as the main character, by S. J. Parris, until Nick Helweg-Larsen sent me this book review from the Guardian.  (The latest book also mentions John Dee).

S .J. Parris is a pen name for Stephanie Merritt, here is the official website.
