The Burning Soul (A Charlie Parker Thriller) by John Connolly


"And I told him that I believed in God because I had seen His opposite.  I had seen all that He was not, and been touched by it, and so I could no more deny the possibility of an ultimate goodness to set against such depravity than I could deny that daylight followed darkness, and night the day." - Chapter 15, The Burning Soul (2011)


Review by The Book Reporter.

The author's official website.

The Charlie Parker thriller series and other books.

My take:  I have been waiting for this instalment for ages.  Verdict: excellent, excellent, and as scary as the first nine.  I thought the denouement is a touch hastily put together or abrupt, but otherwise, it is another superb read.  I look forward to another Charlie Parker thriller.

Avoid reading it at night if possible.  

Rating:  5/5
