I ADORED Shadow of the Wind. It is one of my favorite books of my literate lifetime -- while a mere 25 odd years may not seem overly complimentary in the grand scheme of things, I assure you that my library and Borders Rewards cards have been worn thin during that time. Anyway, I read about the pending release of Angel's Game here on Goodreads a couple months ago and had put myself on the hold list at the library within the hour. Unfortunately, this series second is not nearly as good as the first. Not that they typically are. Nonetheless, it is still an entertaining dose of intrigue even if it does fall a little flat in parts. Of course, any comparison to Shadow is a hard sell.

A pesar de que terminar el libro se me hizo un poco difícil y la trama es genuinamente complicada, he amado este libro hasta más que el primero. Se podría decir que es difícil de entender y lo es, pero es su mayor fuerte en realidad, no hay que tratar de buscarle la realidad a todo. Esta es la realidad.
