I only have two critiques: I wish all the characters were just a few years older. To me, especially the romances would be more compelling but the characters would also be more developed. Also, I think that the beginning of the book was a bit muddled and seemed to have too much all at once for introducing a new setting/social scene. Even though I read Shadow and Bone, I was still confused and disoriented about introducing how everything works in Ketterdam, especially since the characters are already established there instead of learning along with the reader.

2. Der andere Punkt (und dafür kann die Autorin nichts) ist das die Übersetzung and machen Stellen nicht ganz perfekt war. Aber das war auch schon meckern auf höchstem Niveau.
3. Das Ende ging ein bisschen schnell. Aber dafür freue ich mich jetzt auf Band 2 😍
