Ladykiller: A deadly thriller filled with shocking twists The Ladykiller: A deadly thriller filled with shocking twists

Un libro cuya sinopsis y prólogo lo estropean todo. ¿Por qué digo esto? Pues porque ambas cosas ya te dicen lo más relevante que va a ocurrir. De hecho, el prólogo no solo hace un repaso a los que serán los sucesos más importantes en la vida de los protagonistas, sino que también te sitúa en el día en el que acabará la historia. The depiction of women in this novel was concerning. All of the female characters were one-dimensional idiots, whose only defining traits was how much they care about (or hate) Cain Moran. The whole book was rife with rampant sexism, and yes, before any of you get on your high horses I get that the criminal underworld is not exactly a haven of gender-equality, but what is concerning is that Cole cannot seem to write a well-developed female character DESPITE BEING FEMALE. What the hell Cole? If blokes like George RR Martin and Terry Pratchett can do it then why can’t you? Martina Cole: Always look on the dark side of life". The Telegraph. 11 October 2008 .

Richard Ramirez was and still is remembered as a violent, sadistic man known for his brutal acts against his female victims. As detailed by Brittanica, he was convicted of murdering thirteen people, but it is believed there may have been more. The terror he reigned over Los Angeles in the 1980s means that the Night Stalker has left his mark on society. Martina Cole - Sky Arts: The Book Show". Archived from the original on 17 May 2011 .

Los capítulos son muy breves y eso ayuda a que la lectura sea fluida durante la mayor parte del tiempo, pero eso no impidió que yo siguiera pensando que sobraban páginas y que la autora cometió un error monumental con el dichoso prólogo y la sinopsis.I listened to this book on my headphones as I had both the kindle and Audio version. I'm sorry to say that the narrator's performance was not an enjoyable experience. While I understand that she had to speak in an accent suited to the characters portrayed in the book, where were times when Caroline was arguing, that her voice almost pierced my eardrums. And that was prevalent throughout the story. If you like Jeremy Kyle and Eastenders with lots of swearing then you would probably enjoy this performance. But again perhaps it is unfair to blame the narrator when she is only speaking in tones suited to the style of writing. I would listen to her again narrating another book perhaps more suited to my tastes.
