Alina ist einfache Kartografin in der Ersten Armee des Zaren. Dass sie heimlich in Maljen verliebt ist, ihren besten Freund seit Kindertagen, darf niemand wissen. Schon gar nicht Maljen selbst, der erfolgreiche Fährtenleser und Frauenschwarm. Bei einem Überfall rettet Alina Maljen auf unbegreifliche Weise das Leben. Doch was sie da genau getan hat, kann sie selbst nicht sagen. Plötzlich steht sie im Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit und wird zum mächtigsten Grischa in die Lehre geschickt. Geheimnisvoll und undurchschaubar, wird er von allen der Dunkle genannt. Aber wieso fühlt sie sich von ihm so unwiderstehlich angezogen? Und warum warnt Maljen sie so nachdrücklich vor dem Einfluss des Dunklen?
The point I am attempting to make via this very long and rather rambling article is that Shadow and Bone is absolutely knock-your-socks-off amazing and just so different from your average YA fantasy. It is addictive, beautiful, fantastical and I just can't recommend it enough. Literally everyone will love it: fantasy lovers; historical fiction lovers; magic lovers; lovers of strong characters and amazing relationships. And, of course, not forgetting the two gorgeous lead guys for us girls.
