Über
Alina ist eine einfache Kartografin in der Ersten Armee des Zaren. Unscheinbar und still lebt sie im Schatten ihres Kindheitsfreunds Maljen, dem erfolgreichen Fährtenleser und Frauenschwarm. Keiner darf wissen, dass sie heimlich in ihn verliebt ist, am allerwenigsten er selbst. Erst als sie ihm bei einem Überfall auf unerklärliche Weise das Leben rettet, ändert sich Alinas Dasein auf einen Schlag. Man munkelt, sie hätte übermenschliche Kräfte, und nicht zuletzt der Zar selbst wird nun auf sie aufmerksam …
Dies ist der erste Band der Grischa-Trilogie von Leigh Bardugo.

This was very interesting and well written. The concept was pretty cool and I love all the characters imperfections.

This is a wonderful trip into high fantasy in YA, something I wish to see more of. Yes, there is the trope of the average girl who isn't average. Just go ahead and deal with that now. But man, did I seriously not care in this case. This book, and its entire series really, is so interesting. I read the three books in three days flat, staying up through the night to do it. This is a thoughtful book, one where the author clearly thought through her magic in her world, what the repercussions of it would be in different societies, and what the implications of the magic wielders' abilities are (like bloodbending, in The Last Airbender). This is a place I've always thought authors tend to skip, but not Bardugo. Less action oriented and more focused on politics and psychology, this book might bore you if you were expecting an exciting, fast paced fight sequence, perhaps, but that's not something this book ever tried to have or be. Great book/series. I recommend it to everyone.

A reasonable-ish fantasy piece -- sadly with another flat, uninteresting "awkward, clumsy but everyone will fall in love with her" female protagonist. Sets up a neat work based in imperial Russia, and comes up with some great fantasy terms that manage to capture that perfect place of familiar and strange at once -- words and terms that sound like real things, but foreign to our world. However, ultimately, what brings this piece down is the boring, rote prose. There's nothing special in this writing. It's very 'He said, she said, he went over here, she did this thing." Those moments of magic that reading should bring, the moments that stir that feeling in your chest, are absent as the author guides us through what should be a world of splendor, but instead reads a bit like a trip to the grocery store.
