It shifts away from the grand military conquests and politics that have been dominating prior books, and while the amount of philosophy being packed in may be extreme to some, it felt oddly fitting—very Malazan. I don't think it would have worked nearly as well if it hadn't coincided with a return to Darujhistan, but with the setting of where it all began in GotM, the tying up of certain stories and the beginning of new ones flowed well together. Toppur sögunnar eru síðustu kaflarnir þegar allt fer í háaloft og blóðið slettist. Erikson er líkt og komið hefur fram áður óhræddur við að slátra mörgum aðalpersónum sagnabálksins og hafir þú lesið fram að þessari bók og fundið vænt um einhverja persónuna þá skaltu fara að biðja bænirnar. Ókostur þessarar sögu er hins vegar hæg framvinda og miklar heimspeki pælingar nánast hverrar persónu sögunnar. Var orðinn voða þreyttur á þruglinu sannast sagna.

However, there were some brilliant moments, the standouts being the meeting of two insane characters, and this: Sadness was, she well knew, not something that could be cured. It was not, in fact, a failing, not a flaw, not an illness of spirit. Sadness was never without reason, and to assert that it marked some kind of dysfunction did little more than prove ignorance or, worse, cowardly evasiveness in the one making the assertion. As if happiness was the only legitimate way of being. As if those failing at it needed to be locked away, made soporific with medications; as if the cause of sadness were merely traps and pitfalls in the proper climb to blissful contentment, things to be edged round or bridged, or leapt across on the wings of false elation... Sadness belonged. As rightful as joy, love, grief and fear. All conditions of being. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

In Darujhistan, the city of blue fire, it is said that love and death shall arrive dancing. It is summer and the heat is oppressive, but for the small round man in the faded red waistcoat, discomfiture is not just because of the sun. All is not well. Dire portents plague his nights and haunt the city streets like fiends of shadow. Assassins skulk in alleyways, but the quarry has turned and the hunters become the hunted. Hidden hands pluck the strings of tyranny like a fell chorus. While the bards sing their tragic tales, somewhere in the distance can be heard the baying of Hounds, and in the distant city of Black Coral, where rules Anomander Rake, Son of Darkness, ancient crimes awaken, intent on revenge. It seems Love and Death are indeed about to arrive hand in hand, dancing. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
