Beschreibung

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!
“Deonn expertly weaves together a universe that both shines a light on the pervasive nature of racism and also harnesses the complexity of Black identity within this space. Deonn writes so much more than simple fantasies or Arthurian retellings.” —Booklist (starred review)

The “worthy successor to an explosive debut” (Kirkus Reviews)—the New York Times bestselling and award-winning Legendborn—perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and Margaret Rogerson!

The shadows have risen, and the line is law.

All Bree wanted was to uncover the truth behind her mother’s death. So she infiltrated the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur’s knights—only to discover her own ancestral power. Now, Bree has become someone new:

A Medium. A Bloodcrafter. A Scion.

But the ancient war between demons and the Order is rising to a deadly peak. And Nick, the Legendborn boy Bree fell in love with, has been kidnapped.

Bree wants to fight, but the Regents who rule the Order won’t let her. To them, she is an unknown girl with unheard-of power, and as the living anchor for the spell that preserves the Legendborn cycle, she must be protected.

When the Regents reveal they will do whatever it takes to hide the war, Bree and her friends must go on the run to rescue Nick themselves. But enemies are everywhere, Bree’s powers are unpredictable and dangerous, and she can’t escape her growing attraction to Selwyn, the mage sworn to protect Nick until death.

If Bree has any hope of saving herself and the people she loves, she must learn to control her powers from the ancestors who wielded them first—without losing herself in the process.

This book took a lot from me. After devouring the first part in the series, it took me way to long to dive into the second part, but everything I felt in Legendborn was right there again in Bloodmarked. The world Tracy Deonn created here is not only magical and wonderful, it is deep, there is so much insight into the world of a black girl, it is absolutely stunning. I loved everything about it. Sadly, part two actually gave me kind of a hard time, because I had to fight myself throught the book. I wanted to finish the book more than anything! It was great! But somehow it took me a great deal to make it through. It wasn’t the story at all. Because just like in book one, there was so much happening. There was so much happening! I loved it so much! You barely had a moment to breathe between everything that happened and you just never lost interest. But somehow it still couldn’t catch me as much as part one did. Let‘s make this rather short: I loved this book. I loved the characters, I loved the story. It just couldn’t capture my heart the way its predecessor did.

2.5

Legendborn war super, das hier leider nicht. Der Anfang war recht zäh, zwischendurch war es aber auch recht spannend und ich finde die zugrunde liegende Ideen immer noch gut.. aber es gab für meinen Geschmack zu viele blöde Entscheidungen und auch zu viel Hin und Her.

Reread after first reading it in 2023

Just like in my first read, this book didn’t go easy on me. I loved it, I loved every page, every character, every scene. But it took a whole lot from me that I didn’t expect. Still it was such a good read and I‘m now so looking forward to Oathbound!

I wish I could give this more than 5 stars. Tracy Deonn really knows how to put crack in books. This was pure perfection and I fucking love every single page of it. Please read it, or reread it, if you've already read it!

Ich brauche ganz dringend Band 3

This book is the definition of hate-love. I love it endlessly but I also want to throw it at a wall with all my strength (even Arthur's strength). With that I'd be 5 stars but I kind of struggled a bit at the beginning. But like the first one it wasn't a bad struggle it just wasn't as good as the ending, which is normal for a book. Whatever it's amazing. Read it.

Ich bin durch dieses Buch richtig durchgejagt, weil ich wissen *musste*, wie es weitergeht, man ist sofort wieder total drin und fiebert mit Bree mit. Jetzt kann ich den Reread kaum erwarten, um noch mal ganz tief in die Welt einzutauchen und jedes Detail aufzusaugen. Diese Reihe ist etwas sehr besonderes und eine unbedingte Empfehlung!

Gute Fortsetzung

Am Anfang etwas langsamer als der erste Teil, aber immer noch ein immens gutes Buch! Teil 3 wird sowas von vorbestellt -Mild Spoiler ahead- My heart broke for Will just as Brees did. Musste seit langem mal wieder ausdruckslos an die wand starren. Ich hoffe echt, wir kriegen eines Tages ein Buch aus seiner POV.
