Zueinanderfinden ist schwer
Angel of Storms (Millennium's Rule) - Trudi Canavan

Mir war so nach Fantasy. Nach einigen Seiten war mir ganz schnell nicht mehr nach Fantasy. Im groben und ganze war ja alles schön und gut, aber Nr.1) Bücher mit mehreren Erzählsträngen finde ich grundsätzlich anstrengend, aber wenn die dann erst nach 1,75 Büchern aufeinandertreffen dann beginnt man sich doch zu fragen. WARUM?! Ich lese ja häufig Bücher parallel, aber man muss diese Sportart nun wirklich nicht auf die Spitze treiben. Nr. 2) Das ganze Geleier von verschiedenen Welten und das Zustandebringen einer Revolutionsarmee hat 500 Seiten gedauert, nur dass es dann einen 50-seitigen schwer ernüchternden Showdown gab. So spannend waren die Revoluzzer leider nicht. Mit unnötiger Gewalt, Mord und Totschlag habe ich sowieso Probleme, und interessant erzählen lassen sich diese Art von Konflikten seltenst. 

 

Von der Autorin habe ich als Teenie mal eine Serie verschlungen. Jetzt ist die Frage, war die Serie einfach besser oder war ich damals noch leichter zu beeindrucken... mhmm. Und nichtsdestotrotz möchte ich wissen wie es weitergeht. Problem: Wenn ich mir damit zu viel Zeit lasse, dann vergesse ich leider wieder alle grundlegenden Details, wer, wieso und was. Habe ich Lust Teil Drei gleich anzuhängen? Nääääääää!

Girl Who Lived Twice
The Girl Who Lived Twice (Millennium #6) - David Lagercrantz,George Goulding,Simon Vance

Sixth installment in the Millennium series; third continuation by David Lagercrantz. I have a soft spot for Mikael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander and do enjoy catching up with them, even when they don't 100% "feel" like their Larsson selves. Is it just me, or is there a pattern of "Blomkvist tries to find/reach Salander, who is hard to find and takes a while before she bothers to read/respond to his texts/emails/messages. And after a while, they finally meet up again, and their plots come together"?

There are conspiracies and cover-ups. There is a confrontation with Lisbeth's evil twin Camilla. The details almost don't matter, because in my head, what I ultimately care about is the Blomkvist-Lisbeth interaction.

The plot lines kept me interested, the narrative moved quickly, and the ending was fairly satisfying, but I wanted something more.

The Girl Who Lived Twice by David Lagercrantz
The Girl Who Lived Twice (Millennium #6) - Stieg Larsson,David Lagercrantz,George Goulding

I really enjoy the Millennium Series and The Girl Who Lived Twice, in my opinion, lives up to the Stieg Larsson story that he started.  The Millenium Series follows Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Bloomquist, two people from different ends of all spectrums but always manage to find pain and trouble.

 

Lisbeth is set out to get revenge on the Russian Mafia and kill her sister, Camilla.  Bloomquist is set out to do nothing.  He's in a rut and just wants to holiday at his lake home.  At the same time, a homeless man dies, and nobody pays any attention to him, except for one person.  Langercrantz weaves these stories into a tale of political corruption and the criminal underworld and does it at the pace of the Larsson books, a little slow but always entertaining.   A very good book.

Third part to this fantasy series - long, a bit indulgent but a good read nonetheless
Successor's Promise (Millennium's Rule) - Trudi Canavan

 

 

Trudi Canavan brings this story along very nicely as Tyen and Rielle continue to find the path for their lives, trying to avoid the resurrection of the Raen with plenty of other characters involved on both sides. There’s a little too much theorising and what if scenarios entertained by both main characters which gets a bit painful. Otherwise the book reaches a healthy and satisfying conclusion with another volume to come. Enjoyable and worth a look but read the preceding books first!
