It is also a double-edged tool: firstly, it allows the reader to play a character with greater ease, since the beginning virgin memories book, like the character touched by this evil. On the other, it gives the novelist ample scope to play with the primordial elements in this kind of intrigue: the truth, the memories and secrets.Exercice particularly difficult style because the novelist gives life to characters who have lost memory and at the same time, it provides information to readers through its narrator. The downside is when the omniscient narrator gives too many details from those that the character is supposed to have forgotten.

This first volume, The Hunt, allows us to discover a universe of customs and very endearing. Can not finish this first game without wanting to rush on later. Even if the conclusion of the hunt leaves something about hunger (it was perhaps waiting for a big revelation) and some ellipses can sometimes lose a bit player, Gabriel Katz gives the perfect impetus to this quest that will lead the reader to the following, forthcoming in October and leave in the meantime with a myriad of memories in mind.
Note the superb coverage of the Miguel Coimbra illustrator and a little flat for Scrinéo Editor: I was constantly out of my reading by the "hyphenation" that separate the text and dialog. One suspects that this is a layout that allows the book to reach the 400 pages but it breaks the rhythm of reading, creating dead time where there should not be any. Go to the publisher's website to read the first chapter and see an example on page 10 of the book.
Finally, even if the book is published in the Youth Scrinéo collection, it contains ingredients that should also delight adults. Roll on October, and Volume 2, The Son of the moon, which should reveal its share of surprises.
