Prisoner of the sky

Perhaps the reader who wandered in "The Shadow of the Wind" and got lost in "The Angel's Game" will be surprised by the entry into the cell of "Prisoner of the Sky," but he will soon recognize Carlos Zafón's touch and his skill in shaping various narrative techniques to suit his vision. If Zafón depicts the city of Barcelona between the romantic nostalgic shadow and the whirlpools of the intertwined game, here, in this third station, he takes us into the inner worlds of the prisoner to describe underground Barcelona, the Barcelona emerging from the phobia of war, and aspiring to beauty. The reader will discover in this episode "Prisoner of the Sky" that it is a continuous return to the previous two episodes, no less enjoyable, exciting, and thrilling, to find solutions to the most mysterious and ambiguous points. The reader will again meet in "Prisoner of the Sky" characters he thought were secondary, and realize that nothing happens by chance, even if Carlos Zafón answers questions, he mixes the cards again, paving the way for his readers to a new start into the labyrinths of "The Labyrinth of the Spirits," the last stations of the "Forgotten Books" saga.
