Review: The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s The Shadow of the Wind has been one of my favorite books since it arrived on my doorstep 4 years ago. This book has something for everyone: romance, revenge, mystery, action, and spectacular plot twists. In the words of Stephen King:
If you thought the true gothic novel died with the nineteenth century, this will change your mind. [The Shadow of the Wind] is the real deal, a novel full of cheesy splendor and creaking trapdoors, a novel where even the subplots have subplots…. This is one gorgeous read.
