Ergebnis für "Das Talent" in Fantasy

SIE SIND ÜBERALL. UND SIE WERDEN DICH FINDEN! Kennst du sie - diese besonderen Menschen, deren Sog dich schonungslos mitreißt? Pass gut auf, denn jeder von ihnen könnte ein Dschinn sein! Stell dir vor, du entwickelst eine seltsame Gabe: Auf einmal triffst du mit jedem Ball in den Korb, mit jedem Pfeil ins Ziel. Genau so ergeht es Melek - doch lange kann sie sich nicht darüber freuen. Denn Jakob, der Anführer einer geheimen Gruppierung, offenbart ihr, dass ihr "Talent" erwacht sei und sie fortan gegen mystische Gestaltwandler kämpfen soll.

Alles in Meleks Leben hat sich verändert, nur ihr Problem ist gleich geblieben: Sie weiß weiterhin nicht, wohin sie gehört und auf wessen Seite sie steht. Ihr innerer Zwiespalt verschlimmert sich, als Jakobs Truppe gegen die zerstörerischen Prinzipien der Armee rebelliert und ein Bündnis mit den Faunen eingeht. Denn mit einem Mal treffen die ehemaligen Todfeinde in friedlicher Absicht aufeinander - was Levian gar nicht gern sieht.

Meleks ganze Hingabe gehört jetzt Jakob und seiner Armee. Leider ist Eriks Talent für die Truppe nicht so hilfreich wie erhofft. Denn nach Meinung der obersten Führungsriege hat das dreizehnte Talent nur einen Zweck: den Endkampf gegen die Widersacher einzuläuten. General Mahdi, ein ebenso skrupelloses, wie ehrgeiziges Orakel, lädt Erik daher zu einem Besuch nach Istanbul ein, wo sich die Ereignisse sogleich überschlagen.

Das Schicksal ist wie ein Strudel, der dich unaufhaltsam nach unten zieht. Hoffnung ist der Anker, der dich zu retten vermag. Jakob ist der geborene Anführer. Jahrelang wurde er von Veteranen der Talente-Armee auf den Kampf gegen die gefühlssaugenden Dschinn vorbereitet. Als er endlich eine eigene Truppe zugeteilt bekommt, ist er schockiert, denn sein Einsatzgebiet ist nicht etwa seine Heimatstadt Frankfurt, sondern ein Dorf im Nirgendwo. Zudem stellt sich heraus, dass die Dschinn dort ungewöhnlich aggressiv sind.

Through that connection, Witt meets Hax’s sister Roni (you’ve hopefully met Roni and Hax and learned about their talents in the Blindspot books).

The joint NSA/CIA school worked, although not as its designers intended. Some did, indeed, develop usable telepathy. Others were partially successful, able to communicate mind-to-mind, but only with others like themselves. And some gained abilities the school’s designers never intended - psychokinesis or the ability to move objects by mental power alone; levitation, which in practical terms, is the ability to fly; and much more. Much, much more.
