My favorite book: "La sombra del viento"

A couple of years ago, my aunt gave me a novel of a spanish writer unknow to me. The writer was Carlos Ruiz Safón and the title of novel "La sombra del viento". Although the book had four hundred pages, the story about a cemetery of forgotten books could catch my attention.

The story is centered in the life of a child named Daniel Sempere, who found a book in the cementery of forgotten books. From then moment begins a series of intrigues about the life of the writer of the book. Daniel Sempere dedicates his life to reveal who was Julian Carax (writer of the book) and why disappeared without a trace. Everything happens while Daniel lives with his father and attends the family library.

This story have two sequels: "El juego del ángel" and "El prisionero del cielo". The first book tells about the past of Sempere family and about how Daniel's parents met. On the other hand, the second book tells about Daniel's adult life, his marriage and  a lot of other intrigues that he try to resolve.


I really like this book because someone special give this to me and is very mysterious and easy to read. You should read it, I'm sure you're gonna love it.
