The Son

The Sudarium Trilogy #2

by Leonard Foglia, David Richards

Book Two in the International Bestselling Trilogy first published in Spain and subsequently Brazil, Poland, Russia and Mexico. THE SON takes up the story of THE SURROGATE twenty years later. A young man discovers the mysterious (and possibly miraculous) circumstances of his birth, which the media instantly spread around the globe. While some people want to exalt him and others vow to destroy him, the youth resolves to get to the truth of his origins and undertakes a perilous search of his past. A compelling thriller about a young man coming of age in a world governed by hype and religious zeal, THE SON asks the eternal question, “Who am I?” and comes up with a provocative response that implicates us all. “A labyrinth of adventures that exposes the fanaticism that exists in Spain, as well as in the United States.” – EL COMMERCIO (SPAIN) “After triumphing with “The Surrogate,” the authors have returned with the second part of their successful thriller, ‘The Son.’” – LA VOZ DE ASTURIAS (SPAIN)

Reviews

[Alejandra RaMa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Es un libro interesante, a mi gusto lento.

[Eva Eve · Rating 2 out of 5]

Si bien es cierto que el primero me sorprendio, este segundo libro me ha dejado indiferente, creo que es bastante plano y el punto religioso (que no misterioso) me ha aburrido.

La sangre del Sudario de Leonard Foglia y David Richards
Reseña: Es un libro entretenido, tiene un poco de todo, drama, policial, ficción histórica. A pesar de ser el segundo libro de una trilogía, el único editado en español, es fácil seguir la historia sin haber leído el primero..

I got hooked on the trilogy after reading the first book. Just finished with the third book. Pretty good read.
