The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: A Novel285 reviews
Haruki Murakami

Vintage, 1998

Quite the story, you just can't walk away from it.

+ Weird but engaging
+ Amazing novel by one of our greatest story tellers

I just finished reading The Wind Up Bird Chronicle, I stayed up too late several nights in a row because I couldn't put it down. Sometimes scary and haunting but altogether very beautifully written and very true to the human situation.

The Pale Horseman

+ A Lusty Adventure Tale
+ Go Pagans!

Cornwell grabs the readers interest from the very beginning and doesn't let go until the last page! His books are so well written that the reader feels a pang of regret as he nears the end of each of his books.
