by seducing their wives. His sense of provocation is equalled only by his unshakeable frankness. Then… friend or foe ? Victoria and the other side: Going into something that maybe was left hanging and that I think connects with my theory is the fact that Victoria was able to get to the wrong side. At first I just thought it had something to do with the ability to get her soul out of her body, which may be true but the weird thing is that we never get the explanation if this is something that Faraouk can do and comes out of the family spirit powers or is something new, on the other hand if she were to be an echo of the true Victoria she wouldn’t be able to “see” the world clearly plus the fact that when she left her real body it seemed it was dying or it was hardly thinking or even doing the basics as eating, so I do think that that Victoria should be her soul so if she leaves her body for too long she could die, the misterious thing is that nevertheless the was able to visit the wrong side, why and how? This then leads me to my conspiracy, I think this could be the key answer of how Ophelia will find Thorn or how Thorn will leave the Wrong side, I think Victoria could be the answer. Thorn is the taciturn fiancé of Ophélie and the Intendant of the Citacielle. A misanthrope, misogynist and maniac, he is a man of the Tuttavia, per quanto strofinasse e levigasse la superficie, tante cose sarebbero rimaste per sempre ingranate nella sua mente – e lo erano ancora di più in quei giorni in cui il presente si ostinava a riportare a galla la memoria dolorosa che con tanto fatica aveva fatto affondare."

Slow paced. Pretty Character driven and a lot in the head of the main character since she spends a lot of time not talking. Main character is so bland, it was hard to root for her. It’s nice to not have the same strong warrior for once but man is she bland. This book answered many questions from the first book and developed the characters we loved so much. We get to learn more from the praised Lord Farouk, more on his obsession with the book, Thorn's past and more development and use of Ophelia's powers. However, with some of the questions answered, we still get more questions and possible theories that will need to be answered (I hope) in future books.Good,” Thorn grunted between his teeth. “Because I’ve never made such an effort not to be hated by someone.” Renard e il prozio di Ofelia sono altri due personaggi che adoro e ho amato averli ritrovati anche in questo volume.

And I know her marriage was arranged but since she had no other option than to just, well, roll with it, I got annoyed at how she refused to try and work with Thorn. You’re bound to the guy. You have no choice so why not try to make the best of it? He’s not THAT bad. He watches out for you. Stop being so immature and try to make this situation that you’ve been given a better one. With themes of loyalty, duty and independence this magical world is filled with treachery but it also holds hope. While fantasy and written for a 13+ audience, it’s also a coming of age story, similar to Harry Potter and will appeal to all ages. I liked the characters even more than I was expecting, even Thorn I gradually warmed to slightly by the end, even though he was a grump of a character. I can't wait to find out more about him in subsequent books!Quatre raisons de découvrir La Passe-Miroir, une fascinante saga fantastique". madmoiZelle.com (in French). 1 June 2017 . Retrieved 27 April 2018. I don't know about you, but I get used to annoyances. I do not "get used" to people I love. REALLY GIRL. I was born in 1980 on the French Riviera and grew up in a home full of classical music and historical enigmas. More of the imaginative than of the cerebral type, I began scribbling my first texts in university. I set up in Belgian and intended to become a librarian when disease erupted. Writing then became an escape from the medical machinary, then a slow reconstruction and eventually a second nature. During this period, I benefited from emulation with Plume d’Argent (Silver Pen), an authors community on internet, as well as from the unwavering support of my Dear and Loving, and from our respective families. I decided to take up my first great literary challenge : entering the Gallimard Jeunesse Competition. Today, I am published and devote night and day to writing ! Well, rather day. When there are not too many animes on TV. How the story starts For readers of all ages, A Winter’s Promise is a fantastical story of intrigue and suspense that is becoming a worldwide cult phenomenon.

Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review. It has not influenced my opinions. Berenilde is the aunt of Thorn and a favorite of Farouk, not to say the queen of the favorites. She is as soft as her nephew is tough, but beware of what is hiding behind her wonderful smile. Unexpectedly, she is promoted to Vice Story-teller to the ancestral spirit of the Pole, Lord Farouk. This thrusts her directly into the spotlight- tasked to perform in front of courtiers who love nothing more than to tear others down and be snobbish. The only person she feels she can turn to sometimes is her cold, distant and secretive fiance Thorn. I knew once Archibald showed up and joked about taking advantage of Ophelia things weren't going to be good. I should've called it quits right then. cerebral type, above all very secret. It’s difficult to find out about his deepest thoughts. Ophelie won’t wait long before putting her own pitch of salt into his mechanics.Interesting world and magic system but not explained enough. It could be due to us seeing it all through the eyes of a character who knows nothing so I hope to see more. Ophelia is a hero for the ages, and I hope this series becomes the next big one that grabs the imaginations of young adults and adults alike.” Ogni cosa viene svelata pagina dopo pagina ma alla fine ci ritroviamo con ancora più dubbi di prima, nonostante la nostra illusione di avere imparato o carpito qualcosa. La scrittura sostiene benissimo e in maniera elegante tutto l'arco narrativo. I liked most of the book but not this: I would have liked for Ophelia to have a proper goodbye or spech with her uncle, aunt Rosaline and Berenilde, we never get to see more interaction between this characters, maybe ir ocurred behind the scenes but I would have liked to sew that, the same for Thorn, I would have liked a last “I love you” before dissapering, but anyway, it is what it is, a little more than that, even. ;) Europa Editions UK has scooped Here, and Only Here, a new YA stand-alone novel by Christelle Dabos, the author of The Mirror Visitor Quartet (also Europa Editions).
