***INCLUYE EL CRIMEN DE LA GUARDIA URBANA***
Incluye el crimen de la Guardia Urbana
Carles Porta es el narrador de crímenes más singular del panorama nacional. Sus historias son estremecedoras sin amarillismo, frías pero delicadas, apasionantes sin caer en lo morboso. En este volumen se reúnen siete crónicas narradas con ritmo experto y rigor documental, la marca del éxito de su autor. Entre ellas, destacan el crimen de la Viuda Negra de L'Hospitalet, que en los años noventa fue definida como «la asesina en serie por envenenamiento más importante de la historia criminal española»; el caso del rico informático catalán descuartizado en Bangkok; la historia del camionero alemán que, en sus viajes por Europa, fue dejando un rastro de muerte a largo de veinte países; o el célebre caso de la Guardia Urbana, en el que las intrincadas declaraciones de los protagonistas van conformado un relato donde la realidad supera a la ficción. Comocolofón, esta edición incluye también los guiones completos de la miniserie El Crimen de la Guardia Urbana, emitida en TV3 y Movistar+, donde asistimos al desenlace final de uno de los sucesos más mediáticos de la historia reciente de nuestro país. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The most incredible true crimes as never before recounted.
By the creator of ¿Por qué matamos? [Why Do We Kill?] and Crims/Crímenes [Crimes].
***FEATURING EL CRIMEN DE LA GUARDIA URBANA [THE CRIME OF THE URBAN GUARD] ***
Carles Porta specializes in examining Spain's most unusual crimes. His accounts are shocking but not sensationalist, cool-headed but sensitive, chilling but never morbid. This volume includes seven cases told with the author's characteristic expertise and meticulous documentation. Here, Porta recounts the stories of the Black Widow of L'Hospitalet, described in the 1990s as "the most notorious serial poisoner in Spanish history"; a Catalonian IT expert dismembered in Bangkok; a German truck driver who left a trail of death across 20 European countries; and the well-known case of the Barcelona Urban Guards, whose convoluted conspiracy is a reality stranger than any fiction. As a bonus, this edition includes the complete script for the miniseries El Crimen de la Guardia Urbana [The Crime of the Urban Guard], which aired on TV3 and Movistar+ and chronicled one of the biggest and most shocking news stories in recent Spanish history.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love.
I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.
