Rezensionen / Stimmen
Sanchez achieves a Ghibli-like world of wild imagination through his incredibly detailed illustrations, and the lilac and pink colour palette makes this graphic novel stand out. * BookTrust * Rune: The Tale of a Thousand Faces was the first graphic novel to win a Waterstones Children's Book Prize, gaining the younger-readers award earlier this year. In this sequel, Chiri and Dai are invited to the Obsidian Maze to fight the sinister MidKnight. Chiri is deaf and Sanchezworked with deaf consultants to accurately portray how Chiri uses sign language to enhance her spell-casting. There is also dark magic, druids, delicious desserts and dragons. -- Charlotte Eyre * The Bookseller, '10 Titles Not to Miss in November' *
