Whether it's for debt, for work, for sex: For the slaves, in the hope that one day your freedom comes not through purchase, illness, or death, but because slavery and the slavers have been sought out and stamped out in every home, business, warehouse, ship, quarry, bar, factory, and nest they inhabit. | |

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. Beka and Pounce's dialog, when Beka observes separate seating for men and women during dinner:
How do they expect folk to understand each other if they're separated when they aren't rushing about their work?
They aren't expected to understand one another, he replied. The women will learn to flirt over a friend's shoulder, instead of close. The men will see the women as distant and unknowable. Their friends will be only men. The women will see men as strong and unknowable. Their friends will be only women.

I so wanted to love this.
I enjoyed the first two books so very much, I love the characters, the plotlines, the little everyday-details like the dustspinners, I love the language. And because of this love and strong bond that I felt towards the characters, I could not believe Mrs. Pierce really went where she went with the End. I was heartbroken. Never have I been this upset about a twist, and don't get me wrong - I like twists, I like it when there isn't a perfect happy ending. But this? This was simple and plain out of Character in the worst kind of twist that could have been written. Even now I get angry about it and remember how I kept on reading, thinking "this cannot be it, there has to be another twist and a reveal about mind-domination of a kind..." but the book ended. I was so sad and dissapointed, felt that the author had betrayed the characters she mended so carefully and perfect over the course of all three books. It's just so... it's just not right. ( )
