Cursed: An Alex Verus Novel from the New Master of Magical London
Description
Things are going well for Alex Verus. He's on moderately good terms with the Council, his apprentice is settling in and his shop in Camden is gaining quite a reputation. But when a mysterious woman bursts into the Arcana Emporium one night with an assassin on her tail, Alex is thrown into a plot to revive a long-forbidden ritual. His old enemies are after the secret, as well as a Council mage named Belthas and a mercenary named Garrick, and at least one of them is trying to get Alex killed - if he only knew which. He can see the future, but knowing who to trust is something else.

Excellent sequel
Like "Fated", this second instalment in the Alex Verus series is a gripping read. I love it!

Unterhaltsam, aber bessere Werke verfügbar
Ganz gute Idee des Autors zu dieser Art der Verflechtung zwischen realer und fantasy-Welt. Auch zu den Charakteen gewinnt man nach einer Zeit eine Empathie. Allerdings hatte ich auch schon bessere Werke gelesen, wie z. B. Der Name des Windes, gentlemen Bastards oder vieles von Neil Gaiman.Trotzdem unterhaltsam und gut geschrieben.

Cursed
Das Buch ist in Englisch wollte meine Tochter (17) lesen. Gut für Leute geeignet, die ihr Englisch festigen wollen. Es ist nicht so dick.

A fun adventure
A mage who is weak in everything except seeing the future, Alex Verus kicks butt.
