Ez nituen guztiak irakurri, baina liburu hauen oso oroitzapen ona dut.
Oso ondo dago baita ere Tras la huella del hombre rojo, liburu bakarra kasu honetan.
Amazing books.
So I could not initially decide between 3 and 4 stars. It had a number of interesting things going on, but there were periods that were a chore to keep pushing through. In the end I was pretty satisfied with the story but feel no need to read any of the sequels.
