A very well-written look at Nazi Germany and its excesses, with some paranormal thrown in. The characters and situations were very detailed. I felt more like I was reading a series of memoirs at times as the descriptions seemed real. Nice mix of historical and fictional characters. I especially enjoyed the views of the movie industry in both Germany and Hollywood. So as an historical novel, nicely done. But then there were the Nazarenes, a strange and mystical people. Who and what they were weaves throughout the scenes of atrocities and the end of the Reich, bring the story to another level. The Kingdom of Shadows will linger in my memory.I received a complimentary copy of this book in order to review it.
