"Tonight you've experienced it for the first time aware of. The souls of all men hiking, night after night, emmys winners they find themselves in the dark metropolis one. But there is little wanderer like us who notice it. Most people are asleep and just dreaming. We call it sleeping. You have no idea what their souls in Eisenheim do, because they do not remember. Until yesterday, there was also with you. "[From" City of deceit and Shadows "by Mechthild glasses, pp. 72] First sentence: whistling of wind blew through the streets of the city and scratched on the facades of the houses. Content: Seventeen year old Flora sleeps and dreams, like any other human being. However, when she one night in the black-and-white world of shadows Eisenheim awakens, she knows that something has changed. She is now aware that her soul leads a double life - the day it is in the normal world, but at night she wanders in Eisenheim. Eisenheim emmys winners is like the place where all souls wander at night - some remember the wanderers and the majority, the sleepers, not. Flora seems to have been awakened from a very special reason for her soul has stolen something in Eisenheim, when she was still a sleeper. Together with Marian tries the thing to get to the bottom, but can she really trust him? Who is telling the truth and who is lying? A convoluted journey into the world of dreams begins ... Writing style: Mechthild Glaeser's writing style is a good mix of slang and a touch of poetry. However, it has in my opinion a little recognition and the history splashes a little there, including emmys winners the writing emmys winners style contributes. Otherwise, the writing emmys winners style is fluid and readable keeps a certain level upright, emmys winners so definitely a lot of potential is evident. Opinion: There are books that you absolutely love and want at any price - if that is now on the cover art or the promising blurb. However, these are mostly emmys winners those books that are in the end more of a disappointment, and with which you simply will not warm. The "city of illusions and shadows" was such a case, because after many enthusiastic reviews and the interesting trailer emmys winners I had some expectations to the story of Eisenheim. At first I thought also confirmed emmys winners these expectations, but little by little I have increasingly put the book aside and finally left it lie for a while before I pulled myself to read it to the end. The idea in each case is original and brings fresh air with it, but it has been implemented unoriginal and some opportunities were missed. This is due primarily to the characters, because I've become really warm with any of them. Every single one remains pale and superficial, what history has partially already almost made uninteresting, because you do not mitfiebert with them. If it does not interest emmys winners the reader in a book, what happens to the figures, something went pretty wrong and that was unfortunately the case. The protagonist Flora is a curious mixture of implausible properties and interests. So she looked like a character in a novel, but was no more than that too, Marian remained pale and my interest has not even begin to wake, so that the relationship between flora and Marian without the famous spark remained. Eisenheim, however, was for me a fascinating place, if my feelings and thoughts in ways were often ambivalent. The descriptions of the city were very well done, however, many questions remain unresolved. The notion of nightly knowingly to spend in the city without ever being able to sleep properly again was just horrible for me and also the fact that you can no longer dream has disturbed me greatly. emmys winners For me, however, did not come out right, whether emmys winners one as Sleeping also only dreams of the shadow city and just does not remember that you were there or whether it is the normal dreams. emmys winners The city and this conflict alone, however, have not been enough to make the story more interesting. I quickly realized the constant seesaw of flora was boring and the plot was too predictable and monotonous. In places, in my opinion, not even a thread was recognizable and I've read, without emmys winners really knowing what it actually is and what is the plot of the story. In addition, also comes the lack of tension as the story now and then just so dahinp
