Roman - mit Illustrationen des Autors

Nichts ist gefählicher als das Zauberreich der Literatur

Das geniale Manuskript eines unbekannten Autors treibt den jungen Dichter Hildegunst von Mythenmetz nach Buchhaim. Wenn er dem Geheimnis des Verfassers irgendwo auf die Spur kommen kann, dann in den labyrinthischen Katakomben dieser buchverrückten Stadt.

Der Geruch von Druckerschwärze durchzieht die Straßen, Bibliothek reiht sich an Bibliothek. Und in den Katakomben stürzen sich belesene Buchlinge und Bücherjäger auf alles, was Buchstaben hat. Als Mythenmetz nach unzähligen Abenteuern den Schattenkönig von Buchhain trifft, scheint er am Ziel ...

Mit fantastischem Ideenreichtum und grandiosen Illustrationen gelingt Walter Moers die »schönste und größte Liebeserklärung an das Lesen und die Literatur« (Die Welt).

Als der Pate des jungen Dichters Hildegunst von Mythenmetz stirbt, hinterlässt er seinem Schützling nur wenig mehr als ein Manuskript. Dieses aber ist so makellos, dass Mythenmetz sich gezwungen sieht, dem Geheimnis seiner Herkunft nachzugehen.

Die Spur führt nach Buchhaim, der Stadt der Träumenden Bücher. Als der Held sie betritt, ist es, als würde er die Tür zu einer gigantischen Buchhandlung aufreißen. Er riecht den Anflug von Säure, der an den Duft von Zitronenbäumen erinnert, das anregende Aroma von altem Leder und das scharfe, intelligente Parfüm von Druckerschwärze.

Einmal in den Klauen dieser buchverrückten Stadt, wird Mythenmetz immer tiefer hineingesogen in ihre labyrinthische Welt, in der Lesen noch eine wirkliche Gefahr ist, in der rücksichtslose Bücherjäger nach bibliophilen Schätzen gieren, Buchlinge ihren Schabernack treiben und der mysteriöse Schattenkönig herrscht.

Dies ist ein Roman, der im legendären Bücherreich Zamonien spielt.

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot. Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable. The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold. The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.

I’m a little disappointed.
Format: Kindle
I usually like Jillian West’s books but this one was missing a lot for me. The pregnancy didn’t come across as real. She’s on her feet for 12 hour days but is perfectly healthy at 8 months pregnant? Yet the week she moves in all of a sudden she’s not? She is planning on actually running during one of the plot buildups. But at 8 months pregnant that’s incredibly hard to do. The lack of breathing ability and lung space, the change in body center, mass, and gravity. All of it prohibits running, unless you’re an athlete this didn’t come off as at all realistic. I didn’t feel any connection with the alphas. There wasn’t any emotional connection. It could be because of the tense it was written in. But I didn’t get any deep feelings out of this. It came across as checking off boxes. Even the spicy scenes weren’t really believable for me. I wanted to see them fall for her, and it just kind of all fizzled. Even Bishop. One thing I did really like was the ending. I did not see it coming and I’m interested in reading book two because of it. But on the whole this book was mostly disappointing for me.
