NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In a fallen kingdom, one girl carries the key to discovering the secrets of her nation's past-and unleashing the demons that sleep at its heart. An epic fantasy series inspired by the mythology and folklore of ancient China.
"Brims with pure magic. Zhao has woven together a story of self-discovery, slow-burning romance, and heart-pounding revelations." -Rebecca Ross, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals
"A magical tale set in a glittering, dangerous world featuring a dynamic heroine and an enigmatic hero." -Isabel Ibañez, #1 New York Times bestselling author of What The River Knows
Lan spends her nights as a songgirl in Haak'gong, a city transformed by the Elantian colonizers. Her days are consumed by the search for knowledge about the strange mark-an untranslatable Hin character-burned into her arm by her mother in her last act before she died.
Zen is a practitioner-one of the fabled magicians of the Last Kingdom. He's never seen anything like Lan's mark, but he knows that if there are answers, they lie deep in the pine forests and misty mountains of the Last Kingdom, with an order of practitioning masters planning to overthrow the Elantian regime.
Yet, both Lan and Zen are hiding secrets-secrets that are buried deep within them. Secrets that even they have still to unearth. Both hold the power to liberate their land, if they don't destroy it first.
Now the battle for the Last Kingdom begins.
Inspired by ancient Chinese mythology and folklore, Song of Silver, Flame Like Night transports readers to a lush fantasy world filled with high-stakes adventure, glittering magic, and against-all-odds romance from beginning to end.

Chinesische Folklore, elementare Magie und mächtige Dämonen

Einfach spektakulär! Das sehr gut durchdachte Magiesystem, die dezent gehaltene Lovestory und die sehr schön als Anti-Kolonialismus hervorgehobene Hauptgeschichte beschreiben eine Kultur, die, stark angelehnt an die Kulturen Chinas, vom Einfluss Elantiniens bedroht werden. Die Hauptfigur lernt, gemeinsam mit dem Leser, langsam immer mehr über die Magie dieser Welt und ihre Rolle in ebendieser; mir gefiel besonders, dass die Existenz der Magie und von Dämonen und dergleichen immer eine klare Konsequenz zu ihrer Umwelt darstellen und dass die Elantiner, eben weil sie eine andere Kultur darstellen, ein komplett eigenes Magiesystem besitzen. Alles in Allem ein wirklich fantastisches Buch, das mich absolut in seinen Bann gezogen hat!
verwirrend

Irgendwie konnte mich Song of Silver nicht überzeugen. ♀️
Die Idee die hinter dem Buch steckt fand ich wirklich toll und der Klappentext war auch absolut vielversprechend.
Leider hat mich der Schreibstil jedoch absolut verwirrt. Die meiste Zeit hatte ich absolut keine Ahnung, was passiert und was genau der Inhalt der Story war?!
Die Charaktere fand ich ehrlicherweise auch etwas farblos und wenig überzeugend.
Zum aktuellen Zeitpunkt werde ich Band 2 wohl nicht lesen.
