Powerful and astonishing

It's incredible what this (audio)book does to mind and soul. Intense, breathtaking and simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming. Beautifully read by Jennifer Ikeda and written remarkably charming, cunning and thrilling by Sarah Maas. Even better than the first book of the series.

Großartig, besser als Teil 1, aber kühle Stimme

Was mochten Sie nicht am Vortrag von Jennifer Ikeda?

Ich habe 'A Court of Mist and Fury' letztes Jahr gleich nach Erscheinen gelesen, und wollte das Hörbuch nun hören in Vorbereitung auf den 3. Teil der Serie, der im Mai 2017 rauskommt. Zum Glück kenne ich das Buch und habe mich in die Story und die Figuren verliebt, denn das Hörbuch hätte eher nicht diese Reaktion in mir hervorgerufen.

Ich fürchte, ich mag Jennifer Ikedas Stimme nicht, sie klingt zu kühl insgesamt. Und wenn sie Rhys(and) spricht, ist sie mir wiederum zu animiert und teilweise schrill. Ihn habe ich mir mit sehr tiefer und langsamer Stimme vorgestellt. Und da Rhys meine Lieblingsfigur der ganzen Reihe ist (und auch der Anziehungspunkt, dieses Buch nochmal lesen zu wollen), breche ich das Hörbuch nun nach einer Stunde ab und lese das Buch doch lieber selbst.

Love this book

The second book is in my opinion even better than the first. The story was interesting through and through. I had a hard time not to listening to it, when I should be doing my homework.

Another unexpected twist...

I mist admit I am disappointed by the turn of the story, but only because I was so excited about a Beauty and the Beast spinoff. Otherwise, it's a very thought out and action filled story. The end felt forced, another unexpected twist in the storyline.

Even better than ACOTAR

What a plot twist and what an ending - so much to look forward to in the next installation. Beautiful character development and introduction and excellent story unraveling.

Super Buch

Welchen drei Worte würden für Sie A Court of Mist and Fury treffend charakterisieren?

Noch besser als das erste, sexy und spannend

Hat Ihnen Jennifer Ikeda an der Geschichte etwas vermittelt, was Sie vielleicht beim Selberlesen gar nicht bemerkt hätten?

Habe das Buch als Whispersync gelesen und gehört und es war schön zu hören wie die Namen richtig ausgesprochen werden.

Was wäre für andere Hörer sonst noch hilfreich zu wissen, um das Hörbuch richtig einschätzen zu können?

Für mich muss ein Buch eine Liebesgeschichte enthalten und das ist hier definitiv der Fall.

Very engaging

I prefer ACOMAF much over ACOTAR. I’m glad I gave the second book a chance at a friend’s request and I am about to start the third book of the series immediately after. The whole story looks promising and exciting now.

Whirlwind of emotions

(Long review, kinda divided into writing, narrator and story - "kinda" meaning: at least I tried 😅)

Ok, so I haven't written a review in a while and honestly, all the super positive ones as well as the negative ones kept me from speaking my mind.
I won't speak of them as much since I suppose everyone considering this one already read or listened to this one.

The first and second book honestly don't compare to this one. I've always loved the writing style and the world building, though I still don't know a few things I can definitely see everything happening so vividly in my mind! I understand how the storytelling might have seemed slow and that's still happening here sometimes but every time I thought "wait, don't you have other things to worry/think about?!" It's very quickly shown how: yes, there are more pressing matters at hand but at the same time, there are moments you have to let go of those troubles - even if it's just to stay sane and think of something else for a moment. So I enjoyed every moment of non action.
Speaking of action: Most of the real action happens in the third part of the book. At the halfway point, I was a little scared that I'd get a cliffhanger before anything even happened but no - shit goes down and you're still hanging onto a freaking unbelievable cliff at the end!
Story-wise I enjoyed it too, since everything that happened had been sort of hinted at in the previous books. (I kinda read spoilers before so some of it wasn't as surprising as it should have been)
-> I suggest you stay off of the other books and their blurbs and info on the wiki if you don't want to ruin the surprises 😅

The narrator, I've read some great and some aweful rewievs about her. I get it, sometimes the characters aren't super well distinguishable and the "low and dark" sounds of some might not come across that well... But also keep in mind that there are tons of characters with different voices and there's only one woman voicing them. The women are usually easy to tell apart, the men are sometimes a little harder when there's just dialogue. That's not the reason I took off one star though, I did that because I've heard others that had me hanging onto every word, where I'd even gone back to hear them say that line again! Ikeda had me do that in the last 3 to 5 chapters but mostly during the last three. It was like the writing, the story and her reading had me hooked. Like I mentioned, that wasn't often and mostly during this last third of the book.

The story in itself (solely this book) had me raging and pacing around, laugh out loud at some terribly inappropriate moments (in a good, embarrassed way because I felt with the characters) and squeal in anticipation and awe of what would/could or had happened 😁
Also: that ending! I literally bought credits (paused sub) to buy the next one because I can not handle how that ended! I'm kinda dying, kinda crying and kinda wanting to jump and laugh at what might be coming in the next one!

To sum it up, I'd say if you enjoyed the last two books in any way then please do yourself the favour and get this one too!
