I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. The relationships between characters are fun and believable. The system is fascinating, and although the plot is a bit predictable, there is still plenty of surprises.

Ein echt tolles Buch. Super geschrieben und es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht es zu lesen - vor allem die recht ausführlichen romantischen Szenen. 

Es gab jedoch zwei Sachen die ich bemängeln würde: 

1. Ich habe im Buch mehrere Schreibfehler gefunden, die bei aufmerksamen durchlesen durch z.B. eine weitere Person hätten vermieden werden können. - Klar aber auch, dafür kann die Autorin nichts, die Verantwortung liegt bei den Übersetzern.
 
2. Ich finde es schade, dass Poppy sehr schlau beschrieben wird, und dann aber die klarsten Hinweise übersieht oder den Zusammenhang nicht begreift. Das finde ich unnötig, da ich das zu ihrem eigentlich sehr cleveren Charakter unpassend finde. 

Ich würde/werde es auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen!

There were moments where I was able to predict things, like that Hawke was an Atlantian. I also predicted he was the Dark One.  The ascension truth threw me though. Wasn’t expecting that.
