"Simmering with magic, peril, romance, and heartbreak."
Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Shadow and Bone

Born without a trace of magic, Tamsin Lark is no match for the sorceresses and Hollowers who populate the magical underground of Boston. But when the only parent she s ever known disappears without so much as a goodbye, she has no choice but to join in their cutthroat pursuit of enchanted relics to keep herself and her brother, Cabell alive.

Ten years later, rumors are swirling that her guardian found a powerful ring from Arthurian legend just before he vanished. A run-in with her rival Emrys ignites Tamsin s hope that the ring could free Cabell from a curse that threatens both of them. But they aren t the only ones who covet the ring.

As word spreads, greedy Hollowers start circling, and many would kill to have it for themselves. While Emrys is the last person Tamsin would choose to partner with, she needs all the help she can get to edge out her competitors in the race for the ring. Together, they dive headfirst into a vipers nest of dark magic, exposing a deadly secret with the power to awaken ghosts of the past and shatter her last hope of saving her brother. . . .

LovelyBooks-BewertungVon mesu am 12.08.2024
Tamsin ist eine Art Schatzjägerin. Sie sucht gegen Auftrag Artefakte, und obwohl sie keine Magie sehen kann, wie die anderen Hollower kommt sie einigermaßen zurecht. Dann ereilt sie ein besondere Aufgabe.  Denn das aufzuspürende Artefakt könnte den Fluch ihres Bruders brechen. Aber leider gibt es noch jede Menge unangenehme Hollower die sich auch auf diese gefährliche Suche begeben - nach Avalon dem Zentrum der Magie. Es wird ein abenteuerliches Unterfangen, ein  Wetttlauf um die Zeit, und unterwegs lauern unbekannte Gefahren.Eine komplexe Geschichte mit vielen Protagonisten, jede Menge Zauber die leider mitunter etwas verwirrend erscheinen. Man findet sich nicht so leicht in dieser facettenreichen Welt zurecht. Ein roter Faden  der Handlung der einiges erklären  würde, fehlte mir etwas. Ich konnte mich nicht so recht auf dieses Buch einlassen. Schade.
LovelyBooks-BewertungVon Nicole_Jagusch am 20.07.2024
light spoilers!!!I'm super unsure about my rating for this book.It had some really great things, I truly loved the setting and the magic in this world. I really enjoyed the characters, especially all the women in this and the different female friendships we got.But I just think Alexandra Bracken's writing doesn't work for me. I have read Lore before and while I liked Silver in the Bone much better, it still wasn't it. I only really got into the story when they landed in Avalon. That's when my interest actually started. But towards the end of the book everything just really started to piss me off.It didn't help that during the whole book I didn't care for Cabell one bit, and that just was a struggle since most of Tamsin's drive revolved around him and what she wanted to do for him.I will probably check out the 2nd book, but not anytime soon.
