Death of a Nationalist Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Really enjoyed this, especially because it was a setting I was so unfamiliar with. I was worried for a while that Tejada would remain the same semi-amoral fascist throughout, but happily that is not the case. "

" Gotta love a novel about Sergeant Tejada. I enjoyed the historical novel of a time/place I have not read much about, and definitely not a perspective I would have originally chosen to see. "

" This was debut novel of very interesting series. The series takes place in revolutionary Spain. What an interesting time. "

" not your typical murder mystery - transports you to Franco's spain and inside a small slice of the terror, casual murder, disappearances, and allegiences - would be great to read in original spanish! "

" One in a series of mysteries set in post-civil war Spain. "

" Not the best mystery and not the best description of Franco's Spain. It seems a great chance to write something much more vivid was wasted. The setting seems an artificial stage for the plot. "

" Love this series, especially Death of A Nationalist. I like reading anything set in Spain. In this case the author does a fantastic job making us root for the main character despite his flaws and his postion as a feared Guardia Civil. "

" GREAT BOOK. A wonderful look into life under Franco. If you've ever been to or studied in Spain you will appreciate this book, and will probably recognize the streets and places the characters inhabit! "

" Moral ambiguity and the concept of 'flawed hero' makes for outstanding detective fiction. The Carlos Tejada Alonso Y Leon series is fascinating. Read the four books in this series before labelling him as a hero or a Fascist villain. "

" I'm a huge fan of history/mystery books. This cruel and open portrayal of the hardships during the Spanish Civil War is hard to put down. It's a complicated story, so your can't just breeze through it, but then again, I like to savor a writer's style, so I naturally read slowly. "

" The first book in a fine mystery series set in Civil War Spain. Nothing and no one is black and white. The principle character tries hard to be a good man in harsh times. Evocative of time and place and a very satisfying read if Spain and it's recent history is of interest. "
