Prisoner of Heaven

The Prisoner of Heaven - Carlos Ruiz Zafón I was looking forward to this having enjoyed The Shadow of the Wind a couple of Years ago, but i was a little disappointed.The story was relatively easy to follow, though the telling of the tragic treatment of Fermin in jail and the way that he escaped and made a new life. It didn't have the atmosphere or intrigue that The Shadow of the Wind had.That said, it is still well written and translated, and a pleasure to read.
