Rezension von Sophia Hilmer“The field of battle is my temple. The swordpoint is my priest. The dance of death is my prayer. The killing blow is my release.” “It makes me wonder how many times I walked right past someone in these streets who was running, someone who had just had their whole world ripped from them.” “You’ll never forget them, not even after years. But one day you’ll go a whole minute without feeling the pain. Then an hour. A day. That’s all you can ask for really.” “For tonight, maybe we can just be Laia and Elias.” “There are two kinds of guilt, the kind that’s a burden and the kind that gives you purpose. Let your guilt be your fuel. Let it remind you of who you want to be. Draw a line in your mind. Never cross it again. You have a soul. It’s damaged but it’s there. Don’t let them take it from you, Elias.”
Rezension von ElsaGeschichte ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ vielfältig, interessant, könnte mehr Raum einnehmen aber hat auch ausgereicht. Charaktere ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hauptcharaktere sind ihrem Alter entsprechend dargestellt, was sie sagen passt zu ihre Alter, außer einmal. Nebencharaktere ⭐⭐⭐ sind cool aber zu wenig eingebunden, ich habe sie nicht ins Herz schließen oder hassen können. Schreibweisen ⭐⭐⭐⭐ leicht zu lesen. Manchmal haben mich Sätze verwirrt auch wenn ich es noch mal lass, ergab es keinen Sinn. Könnten aus meiner Sicht mehr in die Tiefe der Charaktere gehen.
Rezension von CiciGuter Auftakt der Reihe War etwas schwer reinzukommen aber ab der Hälfte war es wirklich gut. Elias und Laia mag ich gerne. Auf Booktok hab ich gesehen, dass manche Helene mögen, was ich bisher nicht behaupten kann. Bin gespannt auf die nächsten Teile.
