Narrative In Favor Of Books Der Schrecksenmeister (Zamonien #5)
In Sledwaya, der Stadt, in der »das Gesunde krank und das Kranke gesund« ist, spielt der neue Roman des zamonischen Großschriftstellers Hildegunst von Mythenmetz. Er handelt von der Auseinandersetzung zwischen Echo, dem hochbegabten Krätzchen, und Succubius Eißpin, dem furchtbaren Schrecksenmeister Sledwayas, der Faust und Mephisto in einer Person zu verkörpern scheint. Dieser lässt nichts unversucht, um sich mittels der Alchimie zum Herrn über Leben und Tod aufzuschwingen – und dazu braucht er nichts notwendiger als das Fett von Echo, der gezwungen ist, einen teuflischen Vertrag mit Eißpin abzuschließen..Mention Books As Der Schrecksenmeister (Zamonien #5)

4.5 but so deserved. one of my favourites of walter moers' work tbh.im actually writing my thesis on this one and feel so glad that i did like it and wont have to write 12 pages about a book i cant stand...;)review coming up soon, im just a bit too busy to keep up with all the reviews i want/have to write.This is my favorite book in all the world. I dont know that anything has enchanted me so completely. Bravo, Moers. And thank you for making my grown up heart believe in Magic again.
Not really sure how I felt about this.Towards the end the many turns and new plots were getting kinda exhausting and in general I just wished for a different ending. Also the gigantic theme of love wasn't up my alley. I did love the world and characters (up to a certain point). In addition I found it refreshing to be 50% into a book and having no idea where it would go.
Walter Moers is one of the most imaginative people I have ever read. His novels are full of quests and goals that take the reader along for an unmistakable ride that just does not stop till the book is over, and it is so addicting that you want to go back to the beginning and start all over again. The Alchemaster is his latest novel, and though this time around we do not get to explore much of the world of Zamonia, the ride is nerve wrecking just the same. The main character in this book is a
This was my second Walter Moers book, the first being The City of Dreaming Books. He's the MOST imaginative writer I've come across in a while, and I'll definitely be reading the rest of his books. But not only am I amazed at the creativity of Moers, I'm stunned by the translation into English. (Wish I had the translator's name here, but I don't.) The original German prose is filled with made-up words, and the English translation SOMEHOW manages to retain the author's intended impressions (at
Postponing everything bar work can only mean one thing, another Walter Moers book needs a reading. Nobody does comic fantasy better, and this is something that is cemented again in what is the fourth book set in the Zamonia world.This series has always been about adventure, as different memorable characters take in the length and breadth of this amazing island continent. However, in this installment, we break the mold in the sickest city in the land, Malaisea. Here resident live in fear of the
Reading this book while wanting to adopt a stray black kitty was a little traumatic! I just wanted to keep echo safe! The descriptions of all the food was lost on me but I still really enjoyed the story and the characters, parts I found quite surprising and shocking, parts quite lovely. Definitely much better than the Labyrinth of Dreaming books.
