This guy can write an ending !
As always Dan Stevens reads Zafon beautifully.
This is a mysterious story with other worldly elements but at its core is Friendship, love and I think a little hope tinged in old age
Well worth a listen

Good Narrator
It was hard to follow and felt it could have been a lot better than it was. I didn’t enjoy the twist in the story and felt the twist and supernatural element to the story spoilt it . The only thing I did enjoy was the description of Calcutta in the 1940s when the British empire was there

We'll narrated, well crafted story
Once again Zafon shows his masterly touch. He writes so vividly about the horrific transformations that Jahwal undergoes that the reader can readily see them . This is the second in his Niebla / Mist series each stands alone but are linked by the idea that one's soul can have a dark side.

It's a good thing someone else read this for me
This was excellently narrated by Dan Stevens and I enjoyed listening to him. unfortunately the actual storyline was just too weak to sufficiently hold my attention. I love Carlos Ruiz Zafon's other works, this one however was a disappointment to me. I just didn't connect with any of the characters and the story just didn't interest me. I feel sad about that.

Miserable
Save yourself by not reading this book unless you have a gun pointed to your head.
