Beschreibung

In the second installment of Juno Dawson's "irresistable" fantasy trilogy (Lana Harper), a group of childhood friends and witches must choose between what is right and what is easy if they have any hope of keeping their coven--and their world--from tearing apart forever.

Niamh Kelly is dead. Her troubled twin, Ciara, now masquerades as the benevolent witch as Her Majesty's Royal Coven prepares to crown her High Preistess.

Suffering from amnesia, Ciara can't remember what she's done--but if she wants to survive, she must fool Niamh's adopted family and friends; the coven; and the murky Shadow Cabinet--a secret group of mundane civil servants who are already suspicious of witches. While she tries to rebuild her past, she realizes none of her past has forgotten her, including her former lover, renegade warlock Dabney Hale.

On the other end of the continent, Leonie Jackman is in search of Hale, rumored to be seeking a dark object of ultimate power somehow connected to the upper echelons of the British government. If the witches can't figure out Hale's machinations, and fast, all of witchkind will be in grave danger--along with the fate of all (wo)mankind.

Sharp, funny, provocative, and joyous, Juno Dawson's sequel reimagines everything you think you knew about her coven and her witches in a story that spans continents and dives deep into the roots of England and its witchcraft. Ciara, Leonie, Elle, and Theo are fierce, angry, sexy, warm--and absolutely unapologetic as they fight for what they believe in, all in the name of sisterhood.

Ein Mysterium jagt das nächste und keiner der Charaktere ist wirklich „gut“, aber genau das macht es einfach mitreißend 😳 und die Message ist auch klar (und wie bei Band 1 manchmal etwas offensiv): Männer sind die größte Bedrohung für Frauen (leider wahr). Ich bin sehr gespannt, wie die Reihe enden wird, besonders nach diesem wieder mal sehr unerwarteten Twist am Ende 😱

A worthy sequel to the first book. I especially love the twisted story between niamh and kiera and how every character has an extensive backstory.

book 1 was better

what i loved about book one was the intricate relationship between niamh and theo, as well as both characters individually. i loved the strong friendship between the girls, the love story between luke and niamh. i loved leonie's coven and how she fought for it to be recognized as equal to HMRC. i loved the very relevant political messages. part two, however, had none of these characters, stories and relationships.... and it just didn't work without them.

Ein guter zweiter Teil dieser Trilogie

Ich finde es eine gelungene Reihenfortsetzung und war auch dieses Mal begeistert von den komplexen Charakteren. Eine durch und durch feministische Erzählung mit dramatischen Handlungssträngen. Ich freue mich sehr auf den dritten Band!
