Rezension von Eike SundermeyerMein allerliebstes Lieblingsbuch aus meiner Teenie-Zeit.
Rezension von Natália Oliveira<blockquote><b><i>“Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love. It did not end well.”</i></b></blockquote> This book is that kind of book you wonder why you've put off reading it for so long. It's that good. Laini Taylor's writing is beautiful and poetic, with vivid descriptions and this lyrical storytelling that compels the reader. The story is original and really well thought out - there's more to every character than it seems, and when you think you know what's going on, she turns everything upside down. It has amazing and unexpected plot twists that leaves you hanging on every word. The characters are compelling and interesting, and very complex. I loved how she managed to entwine the past and the present of the characters without too many flashbacks in a way that it's not tiring. The ending is exploding and left me reeling with too many emotions and wondering what will happen next. I can't wait to get my hands on the next installment of this story!
Rezension von Sina🪩🦋Es ist mal was ganz anderes, was mir richtig gut gefallen hat - einziger Mangelpunkt: offenes Ende, da es eine ganze Reihe ist. Meiner Ansicht nach gibt es viel zu viele Reihen !
Rezension von JulianeEin sehr spezieller und interessanter Roman, der stark beginnt, in der Mitte etwas schwächelt und einen zum Schluss so packt, dass man nach der letzten Seite erstmal nach Luft schnappen muss. Mir gefallen die Charaktere sehr gut, gern würd ich mehr über Akiva erfahren, ich hab das Gefühl, dass da noch einiges kommt. Karou ist ein sehr vielseitiger und überhaupt nicht stereotypischer Charakter. Auch die Nebenfiguren wurden mit viele Liebe zum Detail erschaffen. Ich freu mich schon auf Band 2 und hoffe auf ein gutes Ende in Band 3. Übrigens gefallen mir die deutschen Cover besser. Auch wenn die englischen natürlich auch was mit der Story zu tun haben. Sehr empfehlenswerter Roman!
