review 1: Loved to see more of Floote! (I never knew he could talk so much.) The language/dialogues were just as clever/amusing/well-written as always, but I simply couldn't like Alessandro much. However, I really wish he lived long enough to see his daughter married to a werewolf. XD THAT would be amusing. (even if I am quite aware she would probably have been raised just like him, being taught to hate everything paranormal). The cat on the jar was interesting, but the mummy thing was even more!! I mean, could there be other types of weres? I was expecting to see a little fling or romance, as well. Leticia didn't sound as bad at that time, either. LOL. It was short, fun, but lacking something. ANYWAYS, now I want to re-read the whole series AND the manga collection. :) It's a win-w... morein situation for me.
review 2: Non sono mai stata una grande estimatrice di Alessandro Tarabotti, per come viene presentato tramite gli altri personaggi nella serie del Protettorato del Parasole e speravo in una specie di riscatto in questo racconto, una specie di "come tutto è cominciato". Non l'ho avuto purtroppo, ma la figura rimane affascinante e il racconto splendidamente scritto. Mi ha fatto tornare la voglia di rileggere le serie (e non è cosa così scontata per una serie che ho letto per 3/5 in inglese, difficilmente riesco a rileggerli). Una piccola chicca molto gradevole. less
