Book 2
House of the Scorpion
House of the Scorpion is an intriguing novel which presides in "opium" a place in between mexico and the United States. A small farmhouse in one of the fields holds Matt, a small boy who is the clone of El Patron, a drug lord, who is really old. He has been cloned in order to provide spare parts for El Patron when he needs them. The plot twists when Matt thwarts El Patron and attempts to escape. It is a lengthy story and has many twists, it is completely original, but it is very complex. It has a stretched out plot and I think it could be a little better in a two book form. Characters are finely built and is an over-all complex and humorous story with a romantic twist.
I give it 4/5 stars
