Doch seine kühle Fassade bekommt Risse, als er auf Amalia trifft, nicht ahnend, dass eine Entscheidung ihr aller Schicksal für immer besiegeln wird...Der neue Fantasy-Roman der Südtiroler Autorin Sara Pepe vor altertümlichem Setting - gefühlvoll und herzzerreißend gepaart mit einer Prise Mystik!Leserstimme: »Der Schreibstil der Autorin ist sehr einnehmend, die Schicksale der Protagonisten gehen einem sehr nah und man verspürt, je weiter das Buch voranschreitet, eine immer tiefer werdende Verbindung zu den von ihr gezeichneten Charakteren. Selten dürfte ich so gute Charaktergestaltung lesen. Die Autorin erschafft einen Sog, der einen immer tiefer in dieses Werk zieht und selbst die Kunst, den Leser mit ihrer eigenen Geschichte zu verflechten, beherrscht die Autorin hier problemlos. Die Geschichte selbst ist eher sanft gehalten, wer spannenden Kämpfe, großes Drama oder viel Magie sucht, ist hier falsch.« - Yennefer auf lovelybooks
