Ah yes, we need a special and beautiful woman and right on the heels of the murder Sophie Neveu, expert in code breaking, turns up just as the standard thriller’s police investigative star is interrogating Langdon, at the murder site no less, in the basement of the Louvre. Harvard scholar, Robert Langdon, in Paris to give a lecture on symbolism in religion, becomes a lead suspect in Sauniere’s death. Jacques Sauniere, a curator at the Louvre in Paris is murdered. The basic plot device is clever and rather straight forward for the genre of the thriller. Holy Grail, elevated to a world-historic conspiracy theory. However, Dan Brown has bigger fish to fry and created what I found to be both a gripping yet aggravating thriller and a clever, almost ironic exploration of the myth of the Nikos Kazanzakis’s THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST and the incredible THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JESUS CHRIST by Jose Saramago. Two very fine novels I have read already tackle that theme and do it well. I must say: if that had been the theme I would have been very surprised at the level of discussion the book created. The dominant theme I heard discussed was a sexual relationship or even marriage / love affair between Jesus and Mary Magdalene. With all the buzz, radio talk shows, many reviews, soon a movie to be made, I feel like one of the last American readers to get to this book.īut the contrast between “the buzz” and the book itself has fascinated me.

Whether you read a pair of poems a day, or consume the entire book in one sitting, The Shift will be your trusted companion as you bravely navigate the great unknown that lies ahead in the months, years and decades to come.

Now meet the most irresistible and independent heroine of them all, a woman called Low Down, who never had anything good happen to her until the day she asked for the one thing that only a man could give her.Īs scruffy and rootless as the other prospectors searching for gold in the Rockies, Low Down wanted nothing in return for nursing a raggedy bunch through the pox. Hailed as “one of the best writers in the business” by Susan Elizabeth Phillips, multi-award-winning author Maggie Osborne delivers hilarious and heartrending tales of resilient women full of grit, pride, and dignity who shine through hard times. Villains from his other stories, including characters from Salem’s Lot, The Stand, and IT, make appearances throughout The Dark Tower series. The Dark Tower series also serves as a meeting place for many of King’s other literary works due to the complicated nature of King’s extended universe. Such a time-tested overarching good versus evil dynamic paired with King’s unique storytelling style makes for a truly unique book series. The story itself combines the timeless dynamic of good and evil, with the specific style of Stephen King’s brand of horror, and, for this series, mixes in a lot of Western, fantasy, and sci-fi elements. That’s a lot of source material to pull from, giving the film adaptation as much as possible to work with. The series itself is eight novels long, not including short stories and a children’s book, and though the first novel in the series is only a little over 200 pages, the longest book in the series ( The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower) is 845 pages. The Dark Tower’s source material also includes a rich story world full of dynamic characters. Now, even though my rating is a bit low, I will absolutely be continuing with this trilogy. I’d heard so much buzz and great things about The Cruel Prince, but sadly it just didn’t live up to all the expectations as I’d hoped for and fell a bit short. I’m honestly so surprised with my rating!! I really thought I would give this book at least 4 stars. My Thoughts: The Cruel Prince is a solid start to a unique YA Fantasy trilogy! There’s intrigue, immersive world-building, and a plot that goes in such unique directions with surprises at every turn!

Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. Summary: Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie.
