I loved Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s book The Shadow of the Wind, so I was eager to try some more of his works. I knew this was one of his Young Adult books so I didn’t expect the same level as excitement from this book, but I probably did expect a lot more. While The Prince of Mist is full of adventure, magic and gothic themes, I kind of felt like there was a lot missing from the story and maybe it was rushed a little too much. I understand the idea of having short books for the Young Adults but this book kind of left me hanging, with no sense of closure, I know its is setting up for the next book in the series, I just was expecting it to feel like Max’s adventure with the prince of mist was over; and I didn’t feel that at all. Zafón is a really great writer and this is more for a younger audience; I’m glad I read this but I would of liked more from it.
