Another perfect fantasy novel from Walter Moers. I continue to be amazed by this author's imagination and genuine originality. The characters are interesting, the story full of unexpected twists and turns. Although his novel, Captain Bluebear, remains my personal favourite from all of Moers' works, but this is a close second.

Gefiel mir besser als "Die Stadt der träumenden Bücher" aber nicht ganz so gut wie "Rumo". Auch bei diesem Buch kommt wieder Moers' Liebe zum Detail deutlich hervor, welche Segen und Fluch ist. Einerseits schätze ich die witzigen Exkurse und Erfindungen, andererseits zieht es sich dadurch häufig etwas. Wie immer ist die Exposition und Einführung in den Teil Zamoniens, in dem die Handlung stattfindet, sehr lang – nicht so lang wie in DSdtB, aber lang genug. Es dauert also mal wieder bis die Handlung an Fahrt aufnimmt.
Das Buch ist ein typischer Moers und voller Witz und Liebe zu Zamonien. Definitiv lesenswert und unterhaltsam. Wer die Vorgänger mochte, wird "Der Schrecksenmeister" definitiv mögen – insbesondere Hypochonder werden sich hier wie zu Hause fühlen.
