Description
After graduating from Royal Holloway University with a Criminology and Sociology degree, Janelle moved back home to London, and began writing middle-grade fantasy.
Die Elite ist der kleinen Gruppe aber auf den Fersen - dadurch bleibt das Buch durchgehend spannend. Tola Okogwu, author of Onyeka and the Academy of the Sun 'A deliciously dark and magical world that video game fanatics will devour.
Insbesondere, wenn Mia sich an selbst aufgestellte Regeln nicht gehalten hat, während sie andere dafür anmotzt und selbst keine Konsequenz zu Hören bekommen hat. To do it, Mia must face the Nightmare Plains again, defy the Reaper King, all while taking care of Lucas. The weapon that the person who is the chosen one uses is similar to Mia so from the start I instantly thought that her and her brother would be the hero/heroine bestowed with the instrumental power to defeating the antagonists. Mia ist eine sehr anstrengende Protagonistin, die ständig Angst hat, mit permanenten Selbstzweifeln kämpft und dann auch noch trotzig ist.
Auch ihre enge Beziehung zu ihrer Familie, besonders ihrem kleinen Bruder Lucas, und ihren Freunden hat mir sehr gefallen. Although predictable plot twists are one of my pet peeves, I really enjoyed this story and it didn't negatively effect the experience of reading this story. Wächterin des Lichts" ist der Auftakt zu einer Reihe die in Deutschland unter dem Namen "Chroniken von Lunis" vermarktet wird.Dennoch finde ich persönlich, dass gerade das Cover auch ein bisschen spoilert und somit das Gefühl der Vorhersehbarkeit verstärkt, was ich wiederum sehr schade finde. While I haven't read Keeper of the Lost Cities so I can't comment on that part, I can see where the Pokémon comes into play. Your selection was perfect for our children and what really made the difference was your ability to engage with each child, discuss their interests and help them to choose a suitable book based on your extensive knowledge of the books you were selling. I also loved the characters that were deveoped a bit a quest like element in this story and the found family dynamics that we saw!
She might be the hero that everyone's looking for, but to make matters worse, there is one person among the enemies who Mia doesn't expect. Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example. A brilliantly immersive and action packed magical adventure filled with well developed characters, exciting world building and heaps of imagination. Intuitiv würde ich sagen; dass die Protagonistin Mia, aber auch die anderen Charaktere, sich dem Alter entsprechend verhalten.
How is it that only older sisters ever seem to get burdened with whiny younger siblings to drag along and look after while doing things like saving the world? But first she must find and tame her Umbra, and find out more about the mysterious Lightcasters - does she have a connection to them?
