Der Käfer war bereits antiquiert und bieder, der Golf zu fad und vor allem noch zu teuer. Martin Krusche und Matthias Marschik erinnern sich an den kurzen Sommer des Automobils in den Seventies, als sich schon fast alle ein Auto leisten konnten. Der Ölpreisschock weckte noch kein schlechtes Gewissen, wenn man mit dem Auto zum Kauf von Zigaretten ums nächste Eck fuhr.

Viertausend Schilling reichten meist für einen fahrbaren Untersatz. Er wurde mit Polyesterharz und Farbe für die technische Überprüfung tauglich gemacht, mit Rallyestreifen, Nebelscheinwerfern und Kippschaltern aufgemotzt, um am letzten Tag des Überziehungszeitrahmens entsorgt und durch die nächste "Schüssel" ersetzt zu werden. Man nahm, was der Gebrauchtwagenmarkt bot, vom Fiat 850 bis zum Renault 4, vom Opel Kadett bis zum Ford Escort oder vom 504er Peugeot bis zum 142er Volvo. Auto zu fahren war ein unbeschwertes Vergnügen, aber auch ein Stück Individualismus und Identitätsstiftung.

Jeder Wagen blieb mit Ereignissen des Lebens verbunden, mit erfüllter oder unerfüllter Liebe, mit Arbeit, Urlaub, Umzug oder Freundschaft. So bringen die Erinnerungen an die Autos von damals auch die Emotionen der Siebziger zurück. Die Autos erschienen nicht erst ab der Oberklasse unverkennbar. Man hatte noch Großeltern, die ein Leben ohne Auto für lebenswert hielten. Man hatte schon Eltern, die innerhalb der Familie für ein Minimum von einem Kraftfahrzeug pro Person sorgten. Man spielte Autoquartett und war ein Fan von Jochen Rindt. Man hatte auf Fahrrädern und Mopeds von Puch oder KTM erste Möglichkeiten individueller Mobilität ausgelotet. Man wollte schnell sein oder wenigstens schnell aussehen. Man hatte keine Idee, wie es sich anfühlen könnte, einmal sechzig zu sein und auf diese Zeit zurückzublicken, die nicht bloß in der eigenen Biografie, sondern in der Menschheitsgeschichte völlig einzigartig dasteht.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.
