I enjoyed the fantastic side of the story and we though it was not felt an agonizing story despite the many strange events.
History is full of love and forgiveness, forgiveness necessary to love. The heroine will evolve throughout the event to finally reach a state of wholeness despite unhappiness. His love ultimately remain a secondary character contrary to what one might think at first.
The pen of the author is good at bringing out the strangeness of the story but lacks a bit of heat for the love side, passion.
His characters are well built and it is a pleasure to learn more about them as and when they are metaphysical experience. Although the sentimental side is a little "truncated" we let ourselves go with the story and all you want to discover the word end of the story. By cons one can easily imagine much of the outcome that spoils the suspense in part.
I also liked how the author has attached via the fantastic reality of small details we the explanation at the end. Despite the final sad note, achieving a premium fervent love and hope.
I did not know the author but its unique pen is very interesting and I would read his other books with pleasure because I had a good time.
