Written with confidence, keen literary sensibilities, but an accesible and easy to read style. This is one of those books that once you start reading you will find it very hard to stop. From the powerful opening to the satisfying conclusion I found myself turning pages at a rate of knots. There's depth to the story too that left me thinking afterwards. The world of Loisada is complex, there are no heroes and few things are black and white. <br /><br />Thoroughly recommended to all lovers of good modern writing.
