The novel is mainly composed of dialogues, giving the text a vivacious and a breathless pace. The action scenes are very well written. The only player to leave the novel and has only one desire, plunge them!
is a novel dedicated to adventure, which will unveil some mysteries. The reader is in suspense throughout the play, especially towards the end, it is obvious that history is not over and we look forward to more. The suspense is well done. However, I think I guessed most of the secrets, especially regarding the mystery surrounding Tristram and his father. But this does not detract from the pleasure I had to read this novel.
