Özet

It’s January of 1704, and Matthew Corbett continues his mission to Italy, accompanied by Hudson Greathouse and former enemy Professor Fell. They seek Brazio Valeriani and information about the mirror created by his father, the sorcerer Ciro. Legend claims the mirror can be used to summon demons from beyond.

But fate has other plans for Matthew as their ship is disabled by a pod of whales, and they seek refuge on a secluded island. The islanders welcome them with a massive feast, but all is not what it seems. As the island pulls them deeper into its influence, the castaways struggle to maintain their grip on reality, even their very identity. Matthew must keep his wits about him and solve the mystery enshrouding the other side of the island, where an active volcano looms and a secretive creature lurks.

The King of Shadows is the eighth installment in best-selling author Robert McCammon’s acclaimed series of historical thrillers featuring Matthew Corbett, a brave “problem-solver” who now faces a challenging foe that threatens to take over his most valuable resource: his own mind.

I love these stories but the readers swedish accent sounded more indian and was distracting

The swedish indian ?

I loved getting the back stories of some of the characters, especially heartbreaking in the case of Mac Decay to see the awful events play out when he had such an idyllic life, very thought provoking. Wonderful narration as always.

Another fantastic Matthew Corbett story, one of the best so far,.

Another excellent tall tale in the Matthew Corbett series - I loved it. Back stories were revealed for several of the villains - Cardinal Black & Mac Decay - along with the story of a shipwreck, a mysterious island which is at first a haven & then becomes something rather more sinister. Wish Hudson Greathouse had been featured a little more but that’s a minor point. Excellent narration again. As another reviewer has said - it’ll be a hard wait for the next book!

Corbett is back!

I have read each book in succession and this was by far the least enjoyable. It seemed a filler and was not necessary. Please can we get the final book soon as I’m sure this will be up to the wonderful standard we know and love.

Always a good yarn

This follows Matthew Corbett, 'problem solver' in the Matthew Corbett series.

I'm not sure where it sits in the series (we learn about previous characters back story's) but I didn't really care. It's been a while since I finished his last in the series. This reminded me what an excellent story teller this author is. Plus it's humourous too, in parts. It centre's around Corbett who becomes stranded on an island after the ship he is on becomes unrepairable. On first inspection it appears to be paradise, populated by friendly people. But all in not as it seems......
Absolutely first class narration.
I'm off to listen to the series of books all over again.

Absolutely brilliant.
