"El talismán" es una novela de aventuras de Sir Walter Scott, un escritor clásico con creaciones muy interesantes.

En este libro, en concreto, se inspira la película "El reino de los cielos" de Ridley Scott. Poco que ver una con otro, pero una lectura muy recomendable, que cautiva hasta el final.

The reaction within the book industry was mixed, with some people saying it was a relief while others say blurbing is actually an important part of marketing. According to @Vox, no one knows if blurbs are useful to the average reader, but their true audience — booksellers, prize juries and critics — find them invaluable.
