A Court of Thorns and Roses Enter the EPIC fantasy worlds of Sarah J Maas with the breath-taking first book in the GLOBALLY BESTSELLING ACOTAR series

Zugegeben, zu Beginn musste ich mich durchbeissen. Aber es hat sich mehr als gelohnt! Der Schreibstil von Sarah J. Maas gefällt mir extrem gut. Sie malt ein Bild wie sonst niemand! Am meisten begeisterte mich aber, wie sehr sie alles durchdacht hat, bis zum allerletzten Detali, sodass mir am Ende die Kinnlade auf den Boden fiel. Ich konnte teilweise kaum glauben was ich hier lese, es hat mich so umgehauen. Niemals hätte ich gedacht, das die Menschen recht hatten als sie mir sagten, es lohnt sich, das Buch zueende zu lesen. Ich wünsche mir jetzt schon, dieses Buch erneut zum ersten mal lesen zu können!

Feyre and her family have lost a lot. And everything just because of those stupid Prythians. If only she could eradicate them...which she gets the chance to, as she shoots a High Fae Lord in form of a wolf. The consequences are harsh - Feyre is separated from her family and dragged into the Spring Court by no other than the High Lord Tamlin himself. It doesn't take long until Feyre gains interest in the mysteries behind a world she's only known from stories. What is with the masks? And what creatures really lurk beyond the beautiful gardens? Protagonist Feyre is stubborn, single-minded, entitled and rude. In the beginning at least. It took me a while to get past her annoying attitude and to really see into the world itself. Maas creates intricate characters, with more flaws than strengths. Which makes interactions more complex and much more interesting. Fey Realms have been explored to the brink - or so I thought. While still keeping the typical Fey qualities, Maas explains the nature of the world without sounding boring and is painting pictures that feel within our grasp. The first volume sets everything in motion for what's to come in the next volumes. And boy, will those hit hard. While the first volume is a little slow, the whole series is an absolute must for every lover of intricate emotional rollercoasters. And High Fantasy.
