El Salon De Ambar
MATILDE ASENSI

RECORDED BOOKS, 2004

Art, thieves, and intrigue all combine in this historical novel. During World War II, the Nazi army looted ancient Czarist palaces and museums in Russia, stealing art of incalculable value. Among the objects stolen was a unique and exceptional piece, which mysteriously disappeared during the last days of the conflict. This object is the Amber Salon, an 18th-century room constructed entirely of semitransparent amber from the Baltic. In seeking ...

A much, much smarter "DaVinci Code"
Don't get me wrong--I loved "The Da Vinci Code". However, there is no denying a few things--the pacing is a little too breathless, the Opus Dei enforcer is a little too improbable, and it's all a tiny bit old if you read "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" back in the 1980s. "The Last Cato" is far fresher, creating as it does a heady mixture of archeology, paleography, history, secret societies, Vatican ...

Another beautiful novel by Asensi
Matilde Asensi is one of the queens of the historical novel - the problem is, Everything Under the Sky is only the 2nd book of all her books to be published in English - The first book, The Last Cato, is one of my all time favorite books - it dealt with quests in and around the Mediterranean - great read if you haven't read it already - Everything Under the Sky is as great a book as Cato, but it ...

a nice historical review
I found this book to be a very interesting and a captivating one. Of the kind that is very difficult to put down. In a very nice way and with a beautiful use of the spanish language it describes accurately many historical facts hitherto unknown to me. I checked most of what appeared to be true historical references and was surprised to find that,in light of current knowledge related to the ...

DEBOLSILLO, 2001., 1985

Matilde Asensi combines a wonderful narrative full of suspense and mystery with a profound knowledge of the period.

Suspects are the "Great Order of The Temple, or Templars" (Keepers of Solomon's treasures which have been hidden through Europe.) It is 1307 A. D. and Galcerán is ...

Un libro excelente
Soy una fan de Matilde Asensi, todas sus novelas son fantasticas porque nos transportan a otro dimension. Sin embargo, para leer y entender "Peregrinatio" es definitivamente importante haber leido previamente "Iacobus". En mi caso muy particular, en septiembre de 2007, camine el famoso camino a Santiago de Compostela y leer estas dos novelas posteriormente me llevaron nuevamente a los lugares ...

Mas templarios
Si se trata de templarios y hospitalarios, por lo que el tema no es muy novedoso. Lo novedoso es la velocidad de la acción de este librito. Si te gustan las novelas rápidas, plagadas de acción con un toquecito (o un toquesote) de historia bien documentada, tipo el Codigo Da Vinci, te va a encantar éste. No es un nobel, pero nos acerca con una construcción suficientemente nueva a los secretos ...
