 Spannung pur! Juli 20, 2006
Christiane Tschubel (Berlin)
7 aus 7 fanden die folgende Rezension hilfreich
Seregil bekommt nach Jahren die Moeglichkeit aus seinem Exil nach Aurenen zurueckzukehren. Zu seiner grossen Enttaeuschung wird ihm dies jedoch nicht als Faie gewaehrt, wie er es sich in seinem Innersten wuenscht, sondern als Mitglied einer Gruppe von Abgesandten um Prinzessin Klia.
In Aurenen angekommen, bringt man dem Abtruennigen sowohl Hass und Abscheu, als auch eine gewisse Art Respekt entgegen,... Respekt von Leuten von denen er es auf den ersten Blick nicht erwartet haette.
Alec, der im Laufe der vergangenen zwei Jahre wesentlich erwachsener geworden ist, ist hierbei Seregils Stuetze ohne die sich Seregil sicherlich sehr bald in Verzweiflung stuerzen wuerde.
Auch wenn "Traitor's Moon" bei weitem nicht so spannungsgeladen ist, wie die ersten beiden Baende, hat mich gerade die politische Situation mit all ihren Raenken und Intrigen in und um Aurenen ueberzeugt. Man wird in Dinge verwickelt, bei denen nichts am Ende ist, wie es auf den ersten Blick erscheint. Vieles zieht sich zwar ueber hunderte von Seiten hin, machte die Handlung deswegen jedoch keineswegs langweilig. Eher im Gegenteil...denn wo liegt die Spannung, wenn man bereits nach zwanzig Seiten weiss, was ablaeuft?
Natuerlich gibt es auch ein Wiedersehen mit vielen Charakteren aus den ersten beiden Baenden, insbesondere Theo, Klia und Beka. Auch hier agieren sie, wie in den ersten beiden Baenden nicht nur am Rande des Geschehens, sondern mischen kraeftig mit. Seregils Beziehung zu Alec ist ebenfalls wieder grundlegender Bestandteil der Geschichte und auch dieses Mal schafft es Lynn Flewelling diese nicht in den Vordergrund zu draengen, sondern als etwas voellig natuerliches darzustellen.
In gewisser Weise ist "Traitor's Moon" der Beste der drei Baende. Dem Leser sind die Charaktere bereits einschlaegig bekannt, inklusive all ihrer liebenswuerdigen Macken. Dies gibt Lynn Flewelling viel mehr Spielraum und den scheint sie zu nutzen, denn es macht wirklich Spass dieses Buch zu lesen. Auch ihr Schreibstil hat sich weiter verbessert. Wer ihre "Tamir"-Buecher gelesen hat, weiss wovon ich rede, denn diese profitieren sehr aus Lynn Flewellings Schreiberfahrungen in den "Nighrunner"-Reihe.
Faie - not Tolkien-elves! April 10, 2003

The author accomplishes here, what few others tried, but hardly succeeded: describing a culture similar to the classic Elves, but not falling into the pittrap of reproducing Tolkien-Clones. Combined with a realistic outlook of a culture consisting of people upto 400 years old with all the differences to Tirfaie ("Shorter-lived")-cultures, it is one of the most original and unorthodox twist on this classical theme in fantasy.
Combined with a criminalistic "Whodunnit" plus political intrigue plus a view into the past of one of the main heroes ...
More than satisfying!
Intrigue and great character development Mai 9, 2001

Being the third novel in the series, which is not a trilogy as Flewelling points out, this book takes us to the land of Aurenen, where Seregil is faced with his past and where princess Klia is negotiating for help in the war with Plenimar. One of the best elements in the book is the way Seregil and Alec relationship has grown into a wonderful soulbond. It has a lot of sensuality between them without dwelling on bed scenes. Alec's character has grown, and now it is Seregil that is suddenly the one that is shaken and in need of emotional support. Alec has become a man, and we realise how young Seregil is by Aurenfaie reckoning and yet how different he is from his own kin by having seen so much death and evil. We get to know a great deal about the clan-ruled society of Aurenen, there is a lot of intrigue and subtle maneuvering and politics. At the same time we see Seregil's painful past and exile in a new light. Thero becomes a very likable character as well, which I found delightful, since Lynn was so successful at sowing doubt about him ;-) There is not as much swashbuckling action and nightrunning in the book, but the insight in the life of Aurenen and (I know I repeat myself *g*) the love of Alec and Seregil make more than up for that. Now we can only hope for more books about our heroes
 Glad that I finished it Juni 26, 2000

I read all 3 books in this series, and the only reason I really finished this book was out of duty to the entire series. The first 2 books were good, and I had thought with the culmination of the second book the series was over. Although there were a few loose ends to tie up, the war appeared to be staved off at the beginning, with the Skalans triumphant. The ending was not happy, but I only applauded the author even more for her guts in finishing the story the way that she did. I was wrong in one element, that there was another story. I picked this book up being curious what was left to talk about, and although I don't regret my decision, I think I would have saved myself time, and given the author more credit if she had stopped at 2 books. This book was just a continuation of the 2nd book, but with a contrived storyline that didn't really mesh with the rest of the books, and it appeared to me the author used this book, mainly to explore the sexuality (homosexuality) of her 2 main characters Alex and Seregil. Another kudos to this author for creating controversial main characters, 2 men of a different race (akin to elves) who love each other, and who share this love physically and mentally. I have never read a fantasy book befoer where the main characters were gay, and although it made me a little uncomfortable since that is not my interest, I give the author a lot of credit for having the guts to do it. I would say that this book was worth reading if you read the entire series, just so that you can get an even more definitive ending for Seregil and Alec, but I don't feel as though this book matched up in story, or in thought to the 2 previous books. Hopefully the author will drop this world and these books, and use her considerable writing skill in a new venue. Read it if you must, but it won't be as good as you are expecting.
A Lovely Series April 22, 2000

In a seamless blend of the best of Tolkien's Middle Earth and Mary Renault's Alexander the Great triptych, Ms. Flewelling has created in her books heirs-presumptive to both series. Her characters breathe and bleed, her plotlines are taut and pregnant, her imagery and language are exact and exacting. I gave up post-Tolkien Fantasy when I saw what else the genre had to offer. Until Ms. Flewelling, that is. For me, she is to Fantasy what Bradbury is to Science Fiction, that is, a great writer before anything else.
