4.0

    Very well told story that begins like a psychodrama and ends more like a crime story. Especially the voice of nine year old Louis Drax is masterfully crafted and the whole book was a joy to read. And ...
 

  ...I really liked the ending. If Louis would have woken up and everybody lived happy together, I would've been really dissapointed.
