Title: Watch out for the "Introduction" by Stephen King
Product review: After hearing many wonderful things about this book, I was very excited to read it. I opened up the cover and begin reading the introduction written by Stephen King, one of my favorite authors. I almost yelled out in disgust when he managed to spoil the entire plot by giving away several key events before I had even began to read the book. I can't believe he did that!Despite knowing what was going to happen, I read the book. It was hard to get into at first, as the language is very dated and wordy. However, after the first few chapters the language barrier disappears and you become drawn into the dramatic plot and vibrant characters."The Monk" was written in ancient Spain, when the Catholic Church controlled society and government. It is a tale of love, lust, sin and salvation; a sort of historical soap opera. I loved this book; after I got into it, I couldn't put it down.
