4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful story, September 2, 2005

This review is from: El Bosque de los Pigmeos (Spanish Edition) (Hardcover)

This book is very enjoyable. The story is recommended for teens, and in fact, my son (11) read it, finished it and liked it!! Then I decided to read it myself and the story just captured me. The basic story is fiction, but mixed with real issues (environmental, political, etc.) that makes the book very interesting.

1.0 out of 5 stars Se le acabaron las baterias..., December 26, 2004

This review is from: El Bosque de los Pigmeos (Spanish Edition) (Hardcover)

Parece que a Isabel se le han acabado las baterias...y la imaginacion. Nos quedamos todo el libro esperando que aparezcan los seres fantasticos y misteriosos. No es sino al final de la historia (pagina 270) cuando vemos a los miticos animales totemicos aparecer en accion, por unos minutos. Para compensar esta falta de emocion del libro, aparecen como en estampida el Lama y el Chaman de las primeras novelas. En esta ocasion el malo no tiene poderes impresionantes, es un malo comun y corriente...en resumen, el libro es totalmente aburrido y no se compara con los dos primeros. Si alguien se molesta porque he relatado los secretos de la novela en unas cuantas lineas, pues no lea los "reviews", para eso son...no desperdicie su tiempo con este libro.

De todas las obras de isabel allende, está es la más lenta y tediosa de todas. No tiene mucha imaginacion al final de la serie del aguila y del jaguar.
