People who are learning English are forced to read and listen to many bad books. The publishers and authors think that just because I do not know English, I'm going to like a silly and simplistic story.
There were exciting and thrilled fight scenes between the main character and the enemies. I felt as if I was watching a film, and I often forgot that I was reading it in English which I am learning. By the way, in the story, there were the really existed city name, area, and even an architect, so I enjoyed to read it while seeing a map. However, on the other hand, it had a lot of the words of Finnish proper nouns. I gave up listening the audio, and I decided it to read only the text.
Lendo mais pra praticar o inglês, mesmo. A história foi legal, eu ficava a todo o tempo imaginando cenas tipo James Bond e essas coisas, mas não me apeguei muito aos personagens.
