Just finished The Angel's Game. I liked it better than Shadow of the Wind I think (although it has been a while), same feel and style but somehow the mystery was a bit more compelling possibly because it was so familiar after reading Shadow of the Wind - the ending was a bit odd though. While tempted to leap into a reread of Shadow of the Wind while it is all fresh I have picked up Beatrice and Virgil (Yann Martel) instead. Another second novel and while it may be a bit too soon to tell I think I like it better than the first as well. I admit the first bit left a slightly cynical taste in my mouth as far as the self-portrait went but once I got past that it took some really interesting turns. It's a short book and I'm about half way through.
