4.5! M'ha agradat molt, i crec que és una molt bona iniciació a la novel·la històrica. La trama era ràpida i plena de girs argumentals, i no he sentit que l'avorrís en cap moment de la història. Hi havia fragments molt contundents i intensos, però de tota manera l'he disfrutat molt.

Lurid. I'd much rather read a good history book on 14th century Barcelona.

Although Cathedral of the Sea is an international best seller that looked like it covered some fascinating material, this tale of the history of a Spanish cathedral features cardboard characters and an unconvincing plot arc.
