The story: Too much desire death, broiled soul. Paris, 1900. Prisoner of its success, a writer decides to leave everything to go deep in his nightmares, its depths, explore what is worst in him. In this fertile fears hides the matrix monsters buried in us all. A Leviathan Shadow, a golem of violence. Guy wanted to dig up the dirt Timaeus, he will meet with evil. Esoteric circles of the capital to the excesses of the Expo, the beginning of the twentieth century inspires Maxime Chattam hallucinated a thriller where the progress of science feed the madness of lost souls in search of eternity.
Impressions: I always wondered how an author with such a pretty face and an air of perfect in-law could also have distorted ideas ..... Maxime Chattam takes us once again in a solid thriller, well constructed and bloody wish. His art lies in attention to detail, where chance has no place.
We both ride in a complex investigation and convincing, but in a Paris reconstituted with brio, the reader is totally immersed in that time. I read the book, a map of Paris by hand to try to identify the places he is talking about .. (Yes I know I've got all ..:))
A criminal investigation although difficult for his characters, a beautiful archaeological survey for the reader.
Nice work once again!
