Positiv Überrascht!
Dieses Buch! 😍 Der Schreibstil hat mir mal wieder sehr gut gefallen. Wie so oft bei Ruby Dixon Büchern, haben wir hier ausgearbeitete Charaktere in all ihren Facetten, die sich stetig weiterentwickeln und wachsen. Wir haben einmal Max: die absolut liebenswerteste Person auf der Welt, die sich solche Mühe gibt in allem das Positive zu sehen. Max, die ein Herz aus Gold hat und die für jeden Mitgefühl und Verständnis aufbringen kann. Und dann haben wir Rhagos, der Gott des Todes, der über die Jahrtausende gleichgültig geworden ist. Kalt, Missverstanden aber auch sehr, sehr einsam. Rhagos, der einen Entschluss fasst, der Konsequenzen mit sich bringt. Und ein Leben in Glück und Liebe. Diese Reihe entwickelt sich wirklich zu meiner Lieblings Ruby Dixon–Reihe. Das Worldbuilding, die Charaktere, der Storyaufbau, die Charakterentwicklungen, die Spannung und der Schreibstil sind alle eine absolute 10/10. Auch der erste Teil „Bound to the Battle God“ hat mich schon sehr krass überrascht (vor allem, weil ich auch so schon ein großer Ruby Dixon–Fan war) und mittlerweile bin ich schon richtig traurig, dass diese Bücher „nur“ 600 Seiten haben. 🥲😂 Ich liebe, liebe, liebe dieses Buch. Große Leseempfehlung!🫶🏼
Dude, I love Ruby Dixon so much. No matter what she writes, she always manages to bring me with her and I love her for it. So this book focuses on Rhagos, God of Death, who after the Anticipation lived in the first book, feels lonely and wants a companion similar to what Aron found in Faith. He decides to make a deal with the Spidae and live through his Anticipation all over again, but this time he'll have a different anchor, choosen by the Spidae. In comes Max, a girl with a shitty job and cool hobbies, who gets thrown into this new world to be Rhagos's anchor. I just loved it. I read some reviews before reading, as I usually do, and some were pretty harsh with Max on some points, *spoiler* like not realising Rhagos was lies. But I disagree, I was confused too at first and after a while I wanted her to figure it out, but putting myself in her shoes, inside the situation, I probably wouldn't have understood either. So I wasn't bothered. Max isn't the most intelligent of heroines, but you can't have everything. Max is compassionate and strong, she made do with what she had, she was positive through some pretty shitty situation and I actually related to her a lot because she didn't have everthing figured out. IDK, I feel like some people just want to dislike heroines, it's pretty confusing. Anyway, I really like Rhagos too! The Aspect chosen was very interestion on Ruby's part. I liked the idea of dwelling on a lonely god who did everything to get a companion, and not getting what he expects but ending up with everything he needed. Very fluffy and I love it. Of course, the world building is great in this series, the lore is so developped and well tohught out. It's based on mythology but it's different enough that you don't have greek gods in the back of your mind while reading. It's just great. Honestly, I know the next book is about Kassam but I really want a book on the Spidae and Yulena, we're never getting I know, but even a novella would please me so so much. 5 stars and counting!
