Falcó (Serie Falcó)
A book starring his most fascinating character since Captain Alatriste. Violence, power struggles, suspense, loyalty and passion make up this extraordinary, addictive novel. «Falcó's world was different, and there the sides were perfectly defined: on one side he, and on the other everyone else.» The turbulent Europe of the thirties and forties of the 20th century is the setting for the adventures of Lorenzo Falcó, former arms smuggler, unscrupulous spy, intelligence agent. During the autumn of 1936, while the border between friends and enemies is reduced to an imprecise and dangerous line, Falcó is commissioned to infiltrate a difficult mission that could change the course of Spanish history. A man and two women -the Montero siblings and Eva Rengel- will be his adventure companions and perhaps his victims, in a time when life is written with betrayals and nothing is what it seems. Arturo Pérez-Reverte masterfully intertwines reality and fiction in this story starring a new and fascinating character, comparable to the most prominent spies and adventurers in literature. Critics have said... «Pérez-Reverte, at his best. The reader feels as if they were there.» «A hero in times past, Falcó is very much of today. He will return.» «A sharp thriller, with cutting dialogues. His most thrilling and ruthless work.» «Falcó is destined to fascinate millions of readers worldwide.» «Arturo Pérez-Reverte knows how to keep the reader hooked on every turn of the page.» «Arturo Pérez-Reverte manages to keep the reader breathless.» «Readers won't be able to turn the page fast enough.» «There is a Spanish writer who resembles the best Spielberg plus Umberto Eco. His name is Arturo-Pérez-Reverte.» «His narrative wisdom, so well constructed always, so exhaustively detailed, documented and structured, to the point that, compared to all that, the real story is weaker and sometimes even clichéd.» «Arturo Pérez-Reverte makes us enjoy an intelligent game between history and fiction.» |
