The Masters by Ricardo Pinto
4.0
I love this series for its unique setting and its brutal honesty. The Stone Dance of the Chameleon tells a story of violence and racism, fundamentalism and intrigue through the eyes of one who has grown up protected from this ugly world. Reading this book is mystical and like watching a car crash. The further one gets in the story, the more people suffer and die. It is not an easy read, but one (having read the complete first edition) that comes to a satisfying conclusion.
As of now, I am unsure why this new version was necessary - if narrative changes were made I did not notice them and as of now, I believe the first edition's first book worked well as one piece and did not have to be separated. The prose continues to be confusing (to me) at times.
