Comment
Add a CommentThe Shadow of the Wind is a beautifully crafted story with a fast moving, well organized plot. All of Zafón's characters are well-developed and interconnected in unexpected ways. The gorgeous descriptions of post-civil war Barcelona would make this book worth reading on their own, but much more awaits you when you open this book--it's humorous, engrossing, and deeply meaningful all at once. wearespartacus/cgreene64
