Where Can I Buy Morton's Quick Salt

The lagoon of the Lion - Charlotte Thomas


Summary
Venice Anno D
Omini 1502nd In the streets of San Marco they meet for the first time as children: Laura, who fled from the pursuit of their enemies, and Antonio, who is talking to street fights and thefts of water. From the beginning, they feel, despite their different outlooks on life attracted to each other and especially combines a target to let the burning desire, want and poverty.

My Opinion: Overall
has made Charlotte Thomas again a colorful and exciting scenario. The action is consistently exciting, and the protagonists as well as the many minor characters are extensively characterized and well. Also flows very much historical knowledge in history, which makes it look largely authentic.

But there were some things I did not like quite so well:
Some time ago I heard "The Madonna of Murano, and a comparison of the two plants forces itself on automatically. cuts this "Madonna ..." for me from clearly better. Had I heard the audio books in a different order would, perhaps my views also been different, but there was to my mind there are many similarities in the plot of the two novels. Both times, the protagonist is an orphan, and the circumstances of how the parents are killed are similar.

A little strange, I was also Laura's visions that somehow not in the more realistic and historical measures and to adapt to the factual young women want. Also a pity that the plot was truncated on audio book, because the consequent abrupt change of scene, I found quite disturbing, and it lost many subtleties.

Despite these minor criticisms I liked the story. Dana Geissler reads very expressive, and I listen only too happy.
