 | The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
Buy new: $9.36 / Used from: $1.22 Excellent book. Evokes a very memorable ambience, authors voice and great story. This remained with me for days after reading. A book you will want to read again, just to enjoy the writing. Even though translated the writing is amazing. A must read for anyone, not just book lovers.

From a review:
A book creater is hired to create a book like no other for a count during the 1700's.
This is a historical novel that will appeal to you if you liked "Perfume", "The Name of the Rose" "An Instance of the Fingerpost" or the Thomas Pargeter novels, or "A Case of Curiosities".
