It's brilliant how Leigh Bardugo made the main character such an ass and yet he is still sympathetic and even lovable

"There was no part of him that was broken, no part of him that had healed wrong, and no part of him that was not stronger for having been broken."

I had so much fun reading this book! I didn't want it to end. The characters, the plot, the banter, the stakes... it was all so much fun! The worldbuilding was a bit confusing at first, but that's probably because I read this first without reading Shadow and Bone. The writing is beautiful, and there's so many lines to prove it. The characters are all so unique and they play off each other fabulously. Each character gets a chance to shine, and as much as I love that, the relationships between all the characters is what really stands out in this book. In particular, the relationship between Kaz and Inej. They had moments together that were intimate but not in a typical way, and those moments ended up being some of my favorite moments in this book. The relationships that were carefully crafted in this book is something that I cannot wait to see explored further in the sequel to this duology.

“Das Lied der Krähen” ist ein beliebter Roman, der seinen Hype in meinen Augen absolut verdient hat. 

Leigh Bardugo erzählt eine Geschichte von sechs Außenseitern mit eigenen Motiven, Bedürfnissen, Traumata und Zielen. Jede Figur durchläuft ihre eigene Geschichte, kämpft gegen innere Dämonen und wird mit Schwächen konfrontiert. Dabei verliert das Buch nie an Spannung. Jedes Kapitel beginnt interessant und lässt die Lesenden mit dem Wunsch zurück, umblättern zu wollen.

Das Beziehungsgeflecht ist unheimlich interessant gestaltet, ebenso die Art wie die Charaktere Vertrauen zueinander entwickeln oder auch verlieren. 
Obwohl die Kapitel von Er-Sie-Erzählperspektiven getragen werden, hat jede Figur eine eigene Erzählstimme, die zu der jeweiligen Person passt. 
Ich liebe außerdem die Art der Repräsentation, die dieses Buch abbildet. Da ist der Roman  ein tolles Beispiel dafür, wie gute und organische Repräsentation aussieht. 

Die Handlung ist klug konzipiert. Dabei muss ich jedoch sagen, dass ich manchmal die Orientierung verloren habe, wer nun wie involviert ist und welche Aufgabe hat. Alle waren hin und wieder verwirrt, mich eingeschlossen. Am Ende haben mich die dichten Dialoge und fesselnden Szenen aber immer wieder schnell zurückgezogen.

Jetzt, wo wir die Figuren und ihre Fähigkeiten kennen (und lieben), habe ich die Hoffnung, dass Band 2 noch eine Schippe drauflegen kann. Ich  bin gespannt, wo es die Figuren jetzt hinführt, nachdem sie damit konfrontiert wurden, dass das was sie immer wollten nicht zwangsweise dem entspricht, was sie tatsächlich brauchen. Es gibt neue Ziele, gelernte Lektionen und brenzlige Hindernisse und ich freue mich darauf zu erfahren, wie die Autorin  diese in Crooked Kingdom verarbeitet.
