Fluch und Asche

by Christina Löw und Eva Markert Tiffany Daune

Fluch und Asche ist die fesselnde Fortsetzung von Koralle und Knochen. Eine gestörte Zwillingsschwester, ein Dämon, der ihre Kräfte an sich reißen will, und ein geheimnisvolles Tagebuch, das mehr Fragen als Antworten enthält – Halen braucht ihren Wächter Dax mehr denn je. Doch sie fürchtet, dass er ihr nie vergeben wird, wenn sie sich ihm anvertraut. Nicht nach allem, was er geopfert hat, um ihr bei der Vernichtung von Asair zu helfen. Halen hat Asair in einem Meer aus magischen Schmetterlingen ertrinken lassen – oder zumindest dachte sie, sie hätte ihn getötet. Aber warum schlängelt sich seine spöttische Stimme, die sie dazu verleiten will, ihm ihre Macht zu überlassen, durch ihre Gedanken? Vielleicht hat sie ja alles richtig vermasselt, doch sie wird nie zulassen, dass Asair ihre Magik kontrolliert. Als die Feuer von Etlis auch die Erde bedrohen, werden Verdächtigungen laut, Asair könnte doch noch am Leben sein, und Unruhe bricht in den Reichen aus. Unter Lebensgefahr muss Halen in einem Wettlauf gegen die Zeit den Dämon aus sich vertreiben, bevor die Flammen die Erde verzehren oder die Tari angreifen.

Folktales of England (Folktales of the World)

by Richard M. Dorson

&“The most satisfactory general collection of folktales to come out of England since the advent of modern collection and classification techniques.&”—Journal of American Folklore Tales of unnatural beings, curses, and ghosts, tall tales, shaggy dog stories—this collection from a renowned British folklorist offers a wide historical range, as well as commentaries. If wonder tales are not as abundant in England as elsewhere, other kinds of folktales thrive: local traditions, historical legends, humorous anecdotes. Many of the favorite tales which English-speaking peoples carry with them from childhood come from a long tradition—stories as familiar to Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Spenser, and their many contemporaries as they are to us. This volume is a &“fine, homely feast&” for anyone interested in the folklore of the world (Times Educational Supplement). &“Should be of special concern to Americans since many of the tales are parallel to or the source of our own folk stories.&”—Choice &“This is entertainment, to be sure, but is also part of man&’s attempts to comprehend his world.&”—Quartet
