Rezension von FranziZiemlich konstruiert, die Hintergründe der zwei Hauptcharaktere kommen mir viel zu kurz. Die Figuren bleiben alle wenig liebenswert - auch wenn das durchaus so gewollt ist (...denn die Hölle sind die anderen) lässt einen die Geschichte unbefriedigt zurück.
Rezension von Kristin KnillmannThis was absolutely fantastic. Almost couldn‘t put it down. It has been a while since I read something so thrilling and well thought out, and this book just did it for me. Highly recommended!
