"I honestly wish this were three separate books and not an omnibus but it was a kindle offer so I can't really complain.
I have just finished the first Inspector Montalbano mystery, 'The Shape of Water', and I while I enjoyed the pacing of the story I understand why it might be rated lower than later stories, due to its stilted and sometimes rather confusing narrative structure. Nevertheless, a good start." — May 29, 2026 05:57PM

“Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.”
― The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats
