The Thin Executioner by Darren Shan
5.0
Darren Shan has been one of my favorite authors since I, a day in the autumn or winter of 2003, laid my hands on the Norwegian edition of Cirque du freak, the first book in the Saga of Darren Shan. Since then I’ve been hooked.
Therefore I got quite happy when I came a cross his two newest creations at Stansted Airport UK. One of them was “The Thin executioner.”
The thing that always attract me with Darren Shan’s books is the really serious matter hidden inside the book. In “The Thin executioner” we meet young Jebel Rum, he is the youngest child of the towns executioner in a world and society that seems to be far from ours but we soon realize that is closer to ours than first anticipated.
I enjoyed this book very much, as I always does when I read any of Darren Shan’s books. He has a way of telling a story which makes everything so clear and he always leave small hints for you (you usually finds them the second time you read the given book). There’s always a red tread through the story, the characters develop.
