When I turn fifteen one of my aunts gave me a trilogy, a fantasy trilogy. That fantasy trilogy was "Memorias de Idhún", written by Laura Gallego, this trilogy was what introduced me to this author.
Laura Gallego is a Spanish author. She strated publishing at the age of twenty-one after winning the Barco de Vapor with a novel called "Finis Mundi". Now she has near twenty books and five trilogys/sagas, but for me is clear that "Memorias de Idhún" was made her one of the most sell authors of fantasy right now, is what made her known. Her latest book is "El ciclo del eterno emperador", but the last book I have read from her is "Los guardianes de la ciudadela" wich is part of the trilogy of "El bestiario de Axlin".
I wanted to write about her because I don't know how she does ti, but every time I submerge in one of her stories everything is so...I can't even put ti into words...is so perfect, the plot intrigues you and you inevitably fall in love with the characters. Her books usually are thick (four hundred pages at least) but I always finish them in a few days, they are so good! And my aunt in my fiftieth birthday was wicked. Her present were the three books of the trilogy, so right after I finish the first one, I had the second one, and when I had already eaten up the second one, I had the third one in my power...I don't think that I was capable of resist more than three weeks, in less I had read the whole trilogy (the first book has five hundred pages, the second seven hundred, the third nine hundred).
If we are talking about a book of Laura Gallego, I'm a complete mess.
Though I haven't read all of her books. I can only do it when someone gives me one of her novels as a present, also when I have money (reading in paper is very expensive) and time.
One book from her that I really recomend is "El lugar donde los árboles cantan" is a beautiful story in a medival setting.
Wow, there are many page. I think that read is very complicate, for me it is bored but is incredible how you can read and feel things that you can´t explain. It is admirable.
ResponderEliminarI'm a big fan of books so I understand you, when you fall in love with a story even if it has 400 pages it doesn't take long to read it hahahaha
ResponderEliminarSometimes i read (not univerity things) and that sound like a good recomendation! thanks <3
ResponderEliminarI love your passion for reading, without a doubt reading a trilogy in a week is a great challenge! Personally, I did not know the author, but you motivated me to read it, I hope to do so soon :)
