The historical details, the realistic events, the constant twists and turns, the fantastic characters, the characters development, the details and the sensations that all this provokes the reader, makes this book one of the most dense and incredible books that I've read in my life.
Words are not, and will never be, enough to explain my love for this story. I recommend it completely and I'm hoping that the author keeps conquering me through the rest of the series.
