About this listen
But perhaps his dark imaginings are not as strange as they seem, for in a locked room deep within the house lie photographs and letters hinting at the mysterious death of the previous owner.
Like a slow poison, the history of the place seeps into his bones as he struggles with an impossible love. Close to despair, David receives a letter from a reclusive French editor, Andreas Corelli, who makes him the offer of a lifetime. He is to write a book unlike anything that has ever existed, a book with the power to change hearts and minds. In return, he will receive a fortune, and perhaps more. But as David begins the work, he realizes that there is a connection between his haunting book and the shadows that surround his home.
Once again, Zafon takes us into a dark, gothic universe first seen in the Shadow of the Wind and creates a breathtaking adventure of intrigue, romance, and tragedy. Through a dizzingly constructed labyrinth of secrets, the magic of books, passion, and friendship blend into a masterful story.

Brilliant narration!
I would have to say, p e r f e c t narration. The narration carried me even when the story gets nuts.

Excellent narration. Complex but good story
Great story, I loved the first novel in this series so I was excited to try this one. I'm glad I did. It wasn't quite as good as The Shadow of the Wind but it was still really entertaining. I did find it quite complex and hard to follow at times, especially towards the end but overall it is really well written and expertly narrated and well worth a listen. I'm now on to the third book of the series.

Great book. Some missing commentary though
I really enjoyed this book. It's funny because if you describe the story to me before I read it I dont think I would be interested. The shadow of the wind was recommended to me by some friends and I enjoyed that story so I listened to this one also. I'll be listening or reading the third book sometime soon for sure. Only negative is that in the audiobook commentary there is 2 spots where some of the commentary seems to be cut out. Both times I rewound the playback and it cut out at the same point mid commentary.

Compelling
Such a great book, connecting the backstory of David from the first in the series.
Heartbreaking and entertaining had me on the edge.
Plot twists aplenty.
