Hello!

Today I publish a post about my #lobook initiative. Here, I share my experience about a book, beginning from the buying and finishing with my personal review. You can read more about lobook, consulting my first Lobook post here on Blurt.


AND NOW, LET'S GO!

This new episode takes a cue from the Donato Carrisi's novel, published with the title The Whisperer's Game (dated back to 2018 for the native version). The Italian version I read is Il gioco del suggeritore. In the image below, you can see a cover picture from which I removed a few parts, trying to avoid possible direct advertisings.

And below, some slices of the inner pages:

I bought the book several months ago, in the paperback format. There are multiple editions with different prices, major for the hard-cover version and minor for the softcover one. The first price I found surfing the web here in Italy is €5,90, and reaches €22,00 for the hard-cover edition. You can find different price on your homeplace or online, someone with various offers. Maybe there is even an ebook format in Italian or English.

TURNING PAGES

Here is the last (perhaps) of the novels in which the protagonists of "The Whisperer"'s cycle move. Many readers might expect an intertwined plot throughout the three books, but this isn't true for this book. Although there are some links, these are never prominent or decisive for the main thread of the series. The plot, however, is distinct for each novel, and the common point is represented by the theme of the "Whisperer": not so much a person, but a particular criminal profile highlighted in these novels.

I liked the plot, although some parts of the novel were a little too heavy for me. Personal taste. Compared to a classic detective story, in this novel, we find slightly more abstract elements. I wouldn't include them in science fiction, but - to be clear - we could make them fall into a sketch of that category often referred to as "Techno". If you want to read the novel, you will understand what I am talking about.

The writing style is the classic one used by the author, although I must point out that I have perceived a progressive loss of originality in the vocabulary and combining the words; words which often - especially in the author's first books - were very effective, captivating ones. It's a side that fascinated me, and which I missed. For involvement, I would think of a personal 3.5, but I will round it up.

Pages: 390

Genre: Thriller, crime

PERSONAL RATING

For my personal rating of the book, I usually use two votes: a GENERAL VOTE, based on a more objective approach to the text (where I consider for example the author's way of writing, the plot, any errors found, etc), and an INVOLVEMENT VOTE, based instead on the effect that reading had on me (if it attracted me, if it intrigued and tempted me, if it gave me useful information, etc.). Each of the two ratings is marked with a number of stars, from one to 5.

In the case of Il gioco del suggeritore, my personal response is:

GENERAL Vote: 4/5
INVOLVEMENT Vote: 4/5
