Chief Inspector Mario Silva

review 1: This is the first Mario Silva book I picked up at the library, and I loved it so much that I gulped two of them down before heading back to the library for the third one on the shelf. These stories are set in Brazil and follow the Chief Inspector of the federal police as he investigates, and ultimately solves, murders. What I liked most about these is that they are novels, and so attention and care is given to plot, characters, pace, and setting, almost as much as the "action" sequences. If you're paying attention you can guess where the story is going, but the getting there is such a good ride that you don't really mind. Gage's characters are interesting and realistic, and pull you deep into the story right from the beginning. The book is seeped, but not saturated, w... moreith political commentary and is itself an overall comment on the state of Brazil and some problems it faces, which is fascinating to someone who knows very little about the country. Well done.
review 2: I enjoyed this book, and I liked it more than the last one I read in this series, but it was a bit over the top, and the plot warrented a more involved book I thought (and never really gave us much in the way of something to get inside why someone would go down the path that this character did (the bad guy)--and itis based on a true fact, that Mengele was in South America after WWII (both the Nazi's and the Jews went there and started over again). less
