In the eternal wood (Paperback)

Customer Review

You will no doubt call me an ignorant, but until recently, I did not know Fred Vargas. It must be said that the polar is not my favorite genre.

But Vargas, one enters fully into a focused summit art tapered writing as the sharp edge of a blade, and intersecting intrigues tight, false leads. In short, everything that you do not pick up the call of the book before knowing the outcome. That's it you expect from a very good policeman, right?

Aves livery "In the eternal wood" Vargas frieze excellence. The title itself has multiple puzzles. What wood is this: those of the ibex of the photo, that of Norman groves where a series of unexplained accidents will gradually reveal their share of mystery, those deer that are kept, including as trophies ?

The plot is tight and all the most endearing characters as each other. Of course, there is the Commissioner Adamsberg, engineering cop and almost mystical, that acts and thinks instinctively touching in its hypersensitivity layer. And then the New whose links with Adamsberg thicken and entrechevĂȘtreront the pages. A strange guy, traumatized and mysteriously expresses Alexandrian, not bad indeed!
There Ariane, the medical examiner, who practices improbable drink mixes and invented a theory of "dissociated" which refers. A woman whose every facet you appear gradually ...
Danglart, assistant, scholar, alcoholic and father of five children. A guy who hunts down the killers but has nausea at the sight of any corpse. The ground side of the Commissioner, who made the connection with his brigade.
A bunch of nice Norman alcoholics, larger than life, even stuck in their land and their nice habits, soon turned upside somewhat.

In short, stunning portraits, a language full dress, unbridled imagination, a real learning which forms the real backbone of the book, stories that intersect and intertwine to leave you gasping.

About 3 hours of pure happiness!
