As a big fan of the TV show I was slightly disappointed. The story seemed a bit lacking in depth as did the characters. I guess it's unfair to compare a relatively short novel to that of a television show which had a lot more scope to create a deeper narrative. Hopefully the next book improves where this one left off.
Absolutely loved this book. I'm a big fan of Guillermo's movies and this book did not disappoint. It reads like a movie and I couldn't put it down. I am very excited for the sequel!
I was expecting so much from this book and came away slightly disappointed. Yes it deals with a lot of themes; love, loss, betrayal etc and it deals with these well I just thought that for me, the middle part of the story was slightly weak. It did pick up again towards the end and I felt myself pulled back into the story and was engrossed again. It is certainly a memorable book with some great scenarios, the two man cons for instance. I enjoyed the book on the whole, but I guess the weight of expectation affected my experience.
