Really enjoyed this, and of course a story about Zorro is bound to be adventurous and fun. This is no exception, and Allende does a great job of telling the story. Great characterization, fun adventures, tragedy, some real heartbreak in here. I also love a good pure evil, spawn of satan antagonist, and Moncada is certainly that. I thought the ending was hasty, but I'm sure she could've gone on about Zorro's exploits for 1000 pages, and that would've been the wrong move. Gotta end it somewhere.
