Beschreibung

The recent Strigoi attack at St. Vladimir’s Academy was the deadliest ever in the school’s history, claiming the lives of Moroi students, teachers, and guardians alike. Even worse, the Strigoi took some of their victims with them . . . including Dimitri.
He’d rather die than be one of them, and now Rose must abandon her best friend, Lissa—the one she has sworn to protect no matter what—and keep the promise Dimitri begged her to make long ago. But with everything at stake, how can she possibly destroy the person she loves most?

This book feels a little different than the previous ones did, as for the first time Rose is travelling alone, far away from the school and her friends there. I found the addition of the alchemists a little weird, since it felt like an addition that hadn't been planned beforehand, even if I liked the way they fit in the worldbuilding once the awkward introduction to brush over the plot hole this created was over, as well as the friendship that Rose built up despite herself. I didn't quite like the way Rose's relationship with Dimitri was treated while she was with his family, but then again it turned out that they were surrounded by plenty of unhealthy relationship, so their age difference and power dynamic might not seem so bad in comparison. I really liked the second half of the book though. The acknowledgment that Rose went through traumatic things beyond what anyone her age should be subjected to and how naively others glorified those experiences. I liked how in the end she couldn't help but take charge so the unpromised people wouldn't get killed, despite them being assholes. Her time at the Strigoi compound was very interesting and one of my favorite parts of the book. All of the warring forces of the outside powers but also her wants and willpower and how she broke away from it, both in the mind as well as in body, and how she finally managed to get the willpower to kill Dimitri, despite how hard it was for her (even if it didn't stick). The last fight between Lissa and Avery also had me at the edge of my seat, and I really enjoyed how we keep learning more and more about spirit, and the girls are finding out more and more how to use it, albeit slowly. I really enjoy how well the author balances Rose's competence bc of her past experiences with her youth and brashness to create this character of a very competent teenager/young adult that has a lot of skills, but without making her unreasonably and unrealistically overpowered.

Leider nicht so stark

Dieser Band setzt direkt am vorherigen Band an und verpasst keine Minute - muss aber auch sagen, dass es bisher der schwächste Band der Reihe ist. Die Mitte zieht sich wie ein Kaugummi und habe einige Seiten daher nur überflogen, vor allem die Kampfszenen. Das Ende war irgendwie zu „rushed“, aber macht gleichzeitig auch neugierig auf den nächsten Band, weil es das eine oder andere Plot-twist gibt.

3.5

Anfang gezogen, Ende hat abgeliefert

Wie schon im Titel geschrieben, hat dieses Buch sich zu Beginn total gezogen. Die ersten 200 Seiten waren ein großes hin und her, aber letztendlich spiegelt dies auch die Emotionale Situation von Rose wieder. Ab der Mitte hat dieser Teil mit total abgeholt. Rose durchläuft im laufe des Buches eine tolle Charakter Entwicklung. Allgemein freut es mich, einen roten Faden immer wieder zu finden in den Büchern. Wodurch Handlungsstränge in vorherigen Teile ergänzt werden. Zwar ist dieser Teil der schwächste bislang von den Vieren aber hat dennoch Spaß gemacht. Ich bin echt gespannt wie die Geschichte weitergeht.

[4.5] This one was really good.

Maybe 3.5 stars. Not sure yet. My least favorite book in the series so far. It had some very good parts though. Let's see how the series continuous.

It started off a bit slow, which I liked. A part of me wanted to rush through it to where Rose would come face to face with Dimitri. All in all, another amazing book in the VA series. On to the next!

Auch wenn ich diesen Band am wenigsten in der ganzen Reihe mag, ist er immer noch absolut genial! Vor allem, weil wir endlich Sydney und Jill treffen. Auch 8 Jahre, nachdem ich die Reihe das erste Mal gelesen habe, liebe ich jedes einzelne Buch noch so sehr! ♥️

A drag. Hat ewig gedauert bis was los war.

Hablamos sobre lo que significaba estar vivo y con tu alma bajo control... y lo que significaba formar parte de los no muertos, de perder todo lo hermoso de la vida y a aquellos que habías conocido. Nos miramos a los ojos y acordamos que la muerte era un destino mejor.
