Review:Lectura que te tiene en suspenso continuo. Los personajes son los mismos de El Juego del Angel y El prisionero del Cielo. Las historias se continuan de una a otra novela dando un panorma mas amplio. Read more
Review:I would have never heard of the first book Shadow on the Wind--it had just been published in English for the first time and my cousin sent me a copy.Everyone in the house ended up reading the first and second book.
Both books were well written with many plots-characters and subplots-very interesting read.
A must read--especially if you have read the first book. Read more
Review:The author pulls the reader into the place and time with all of his novels. He weaves the story like fine silk and the reader begins to be one of the characters in the book. The characters become friends who one cares about, and has concerns for. My biggest regret is that I have finished it and there are no more in this series. Read more

Review:Yoshimoto provides an insight into death and life and how, even though one may have their circle of friends for support, it's the family circle that matters in the end. I really enjoyed Yoshimoto's close description of Mikage and Eriko, the 'supposed' mother who is transvestite.It was the first book I have read that describes the characters and their emotions. A job well done and this novella deserves many rewards! Read more

BRAND NEW,GOOD QUALITY AND FAST DELIVERY. ALL HAVE FREE TRACKING NUMBER WITH REGISTERED.
What I really get is a broken case, and two of the volumes are not in a good condition. Still the inside is good and the product is what I asked for.

Review:This novel is sweeping in its scope, telling the story of the violence in Jamaican politics, the death of Bob Marley and the rise of the Jamaican drug posses, all revealed in spurts and starts through the eyes of a disparate series of characters who come and go but who all leave an indelible mark on the novel. A history lesson told by an engaging ensemble cast on all sides of the crisis, from the jaded CIA operatives to the killers and the politicians that turned Jamaica into a bloodbath in the ...
