Reviewed by celDie Sprache ist kompliziert, so soll sie sein. Das ist das erste Solo Buch welches ich von Amal El-Mohtar lese, <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43352954-this-is-how-you-lose-the-time-war">This Is How You Lose the Time War</a> habe ich bereits gelesen und habe es geliebt, das Buch war eine Empfehlung von einem sehr tollen Menschen(D). Ich hatte eine tolle Zeit mit dem Buch, es kommt nicht an TIHYLTTW ran, vielleicht wird das aber keinem Buch jemals gelingen. Ich fühle mich geborgen. Ich heile. Cel
