Rezension von Florenz HeldermannGrabhexen, Feen Tanten, von Dämonen besessene Hühner, verstoßene Krieger, Goblin Märkte, Prinzen und Prinzessinnen... fast ein Märchen, wenn dann nicht noch Themen wie Häusliche Gewalt, Co-Abhängigkeit und Femizid dabei wären. hat Stellenweise an Gaiman erinnert, ohne dass es Gaiman ist. Was wohl im Jahr 2025 eine gute Sache ist.

Rezension von SarahI think I found a new favourite author! The beginning was not what I was expecting so it felt a little tiny bit slow but it was so worth and set the perfect buildup for the story. The characters were so much fun (especially the dog and the chicken)!
Rezension von Rohit NairTo be honest, it’s not bad but I’m really not the core target audience for this book. Not that I’m a fan of perpetual grimdark, but this felt a little bit too light.
