Dirk Strasser

So I won a copy of another book (an anthology) from this same author by LibraryThing... but mr.Strasser sent me the wrong link and I ended up getting a copy of Equinox and WOW!
Thanks the gods by this coz I've been devouring this book since I got it. I even prioritized it over all my other books that are halfway done.

Even if I don't feel comfortable to review a book before finish reading it, Equinox is one of those rare cases that you simply can't go wrong. Specially coz it's in the middle of a series.
But even if I didn't read the first book (yet!), I doubt it would change my mind about this one.

Equinox is full of fantasy, mysteries, a lot of hope, war for secrets, charming characters (though MC can be kinda irritating in some parts) and endless adventure!

Dirk Strasser is a storyteller! A damn good one (!) that makes you feel like the book is reading itself to you and not by you.

I can't end this review before comparing Dirk Strasser's captivating Storytelling style to the one present on Michael Ende's "Die Unendliche Geschichte" (Neverending Story) novel!
(And, no, I'm not saying that because there's an "Atreu" in Ascension at all, please! haha)

So, for what I've read of Strasser until now... if you liked Ende's famous novel, you will certainly enjoy Strasser's Ascension series.
And I'm looking forward to add hardcover editions of the series to my personal library!… (mehr)

I received this book in exchange for an honest review. In the first book I was annoyed by Atreu but I can honestly say I am liking him a little more since he is at least taking action in this second book of the series. I am hooked!! I had so much fun reading this I ignored everyone until it was finished. Now if I can get a hold of book three maybe I can finally breathe! Yes because breathing was a definite challenge with all of the action! Awesome second book in a series which is not always the case.… (mehr)
