(  ) ConalO | Apr 23, 2018 |  ) cwebb | Oct 29, 2017 | Mit „Die Flammen der Dämmerung“ hat mich Peter V. Brett ja bitter enttäuscht, daher war ich auch sehr skeptisch gegenüber der Novelle „Das Erbe des Kuriers“. Es ist die erste Novelle des Autors, die ich gelesen habe, und überraschender- und erfreulicherweise konnte mich Peter V. Brett durchaus überzeugen. Der Autor kehrt mit dieser Novelle zurück zu der Stärke, die er vor allem im ersten Band gezeigt hat und erzählt High Fantasy vom Feinsten, nur leider viel zu wenig davon, denn mit ihren knapp 200 Seiten ist die Novelle nicht nur unterhaltsames sondern vor allem auch kurzes Lesevergnügen. Alles in allem konnte mich Peter V. Brett mit „Das Erbe des Kuriers“ trotz all meiner Skepsis überzeugen und dank der wirklich vielversprechenden und neugierig machenden Anspielungen auf den kommenden Band sehe ich auch diesem wieder mit deutlich größerer Begeisterung entgegen. Für alle Fans des Autors definitiv ein Muss! (  ) FiliaLibri | Nov 10, 2015 | nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Appartiene alle SerieThe Demon Cycle (3.5)
Fantasy.
Fiction.
HTML: Humanity has been brought to the brink of extinction. Each night, the world is overrun by demonsâ??bloodthirsty creatures of nightmare that have been hunting the surface for over 300 years. A scant few hamlets and half-starved city-states are all that remain of a once proud civilization, and it is only by hiding behind wards, ancient symbols with the power to repel the demons, that they survive. A handful of Messengers brave the night to keep the lines of communication open between the increasingly isolated populace. Briar Damaj is a boy of six in the small village of Bogton. Half Krasian, the village children call him Mudboy for his dark skin. When tragedy strikes, Briar decides the town is better off without him, fleeing into the bog with nothing but his wits and a bit of herb lore to protect him. After twenty years, Ragen Messenger has agreed to retire and pass on his route to his protégé, Arlen Bales. But for all that he's earned the rest, he has no idea what to do with the rest of his life. When he learns Briar, the son of an old friend, is missing, Ragen is willing to risk any danger to bring him safely hom Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I'm not usually a reader of in-between novellas, but in these cases, for this author, I'm very glad I'm making the exception.
They actually stand on their own and build the world wonderfully. It's a story of survival, being an outcast, an in-between child of two cultures, and of heroically going after the kid at all costs. And we even tie in Arlen's childhood master of the Messengers. It's pretty powerful. :)
It also sets me up pretty perfectly for book 4, as well. :) (
