I really liked the world building and our main characters Diem and her brother Teller. Diem is an independent and strong character who is angry at the world she lives in and her brother is a sweet teenager who is very intelligent and kind.
My problem was that the whole book felt like a setup for the following books, so much so that I think it could have been cut in half.
The ending ended on a cliffhanger and I am interested to read the other books and hope there will be more plot.

3.0

Das Buch „Der Thron der Magier“ von Juniper Phaeton ist ein Fantasy-Roman mit viel Action, in dem es nie langweilig wird. Wo viele Fantasy-Romane langsam anfangen, damit man als Leser, alle Informationen über Welt bekommt, wirft einen Juniper Phaeton mitten ins Geschehen, so dass es nie langweilig wird.
Ich persönlich aber bevorzuge es, wenn man mehr Zeit mit den Charakteren verbringt, um sie besser kennenzulernen, was aber das ist schwierig, wenn man 6 verschiedene Perspektiven hat. Wem es aber lieber ist, dass das Buch mehr Action hat, dem kann ich das Buch nur empfehlen.
