Brugerbedømmelser af Crooked Kingdom

  • Martin L. 25. juni 2020

    Fem ud af fem stjerne.

    Helt og aldeles fantastisk!!

    Crooked Kingdom mødte alle mine forventninger og mere til. Det er en bog der tager dig med på en rejse og den er næsten umulig at ligge ned igen. Der er hjerteskærende plot-twists noget nær den bedste charakter development jeg har set længe og Leighs skrivestil er fangende hun formår virkelig at få fremprovokeret en masse følelser når man læser. Mange de metafore hun burger har utrolig dybe meninger som virkelig har fået tankerne til at cirkulere i hovedet på mig også lang tid efter jeg har læst.

    Plottet er uforusigeligt, der er ingen former for gliché. vi læser historien fra flere forskellige vinkler hvilket medvirker til at bogen bliver endnu mere hjerteskærende. Det giver også noget variation når man læser hvilket gør at den aldrig bliver kedelig at læse. Der er masser af representation så, så mange som muligt kan relatere til karakterene. For mig personligt er det en bog jeg vil kunne genlæse utallige gange.

    De romantiske forhold er virkelig veludførte og velskrevne, ligeså er flahsbackende og de forskellige karakteres traumer. Fantasy alpektet er både magisk og brutalt og det spiller så godt sammen med den politiske agenda.

    Temaerne og de problematikker Crooked Kingdom berøre er relevant i dag. Mange af de problemantikker de forskellige karaktere møder på deres vej er nogle man ville kunne perspektivere til samfundet i dag.

    Alt i alt er Crooked Kingdom en veludført, hjerteskærende, mørk vidunder af en bog. Jeg anbefaler dog at man læser Grisha trilogien inden man kaster sig over Six of Crow duologien da det giver en god forhåndsviden både om universet (The Grishaverse) men også nogle af de karaktere der kortvarigt er nævnt jeg tror dog ikke det er en absolut nødvendighed.

    Jag kan ikke hype den her bog nok op MUST READ!
