	Ben Campbell gave to: Shades of Blue (Hardcover) by Bill Moody	my rating:
	read in June, 2009 Ben said: "Moody's writing is concise. Soft on characterizations, hard on plotting, soft on segways, hard on situations.

DUBROVNIK (Literature & Fiction)

1 chapters — updated 05/27/2009 09:52PM

description: DUBROVNIK spins with cultural conflicts, robust characters and rock-ribbed stamina. The old walled-in city of Dubrovnik is an immensely rich, magical paradise as the backdrop. This story is a legend about friendship and love, lyrical images and palpable situations. Alex Crown’s demeanor is destined to draw you in. His physical strength is challenging. His diplomacy is brutal. His hunger for an independent Croatia is insatiable. With his hypnotic arrogance and gifted discretion, he and his partner Ivan Andric could help bring an end to tyranny and establish democracy in their country long ravaged by greed, deception and deadly obsessions. Dubrovnik is a work of fiction. Black and white photos of Dubrovnik and surrounding areas are included as complementary visuals, which create impact and atmospheric conditions for this unique story.
