Chicagoland Vampires

review 1: Inhaltsangabe (Quelle Egmont Lyx): Die Gegner der Vampire gewinnen in Chicago immer mehr an Einfluss. Nun droht auch noch der Staat ein vampirfeindliches Gesetz zu erlassen. Als ein merkwürdiges magisches Phänomen die Einwohner Chicagos in Unruhe versetzt, fürchtet die Vampirin Merit, dass eine Panik ausbrechen könnte. Sie muss alle Hebel in Bewegung setzen, um herauszufinden, wer hinter der magischen Attacke steckt.Meine Einschätzung: Dies ist die Übersetzung vom letzzten Band der Chicagoland Vampire, den ich auf englisch las ehe ich mich weigerte weiter zu lesen. Sicher versteht der ein oder andere warum ... Doch ich gestehe, dass mich dieser ReRead davon überzeugen konnte weiteren Büchern von Chloe Neill eine Chance zu geben. Wie bereits in den Büchern 1 bis 4,... more so ist auch hier der Schreibstil wieder flüssig und angenehm zu lesen, was nicht zuletzt der soliden Leistung des Übersetzers zu verdanken ist, auch wenn ich die Originaltitel für Merit und Ethan schöner finde. Aber das ist jetzt meckern auf hohem Niveau!!Die Beschreibungen sind detailliert, ohne zu überladen zu wirken.Einmal drin, kam ich von dem Buch nicht mehr los. Die Handlung selbst wahrt mit einigen Überraschungen auf, die mich mehr als einmal mit offenem Mund da sitzen ließen. Und da stellte sich mir unweigerlich die Frage: Was erwartet die Charaktere noch? An dieser Geschichte stimmt einfach alles: Es ist spannend, emotional und fesselnd. Was will man mehr?Hingegen habe ich das Gefühl, dass einige der Charaktere, gerade Merit, auf der Stelle treten und nicht vorwärts kommen. Inzwischen ist es auch fast schon ein bissl nervig, dass Cadogan den Ärger gepachtet zu haben scheint.Auch mit Ethan bin ich unzufrieden: ein Schritt vor, drei Schritte zurück ... das hält man doch im Kopf nicht aus!! Ich hoffe ja, dass Jonah mehr und mehr eine zentrale Rolle in Merits Leben spielen wird, ich mag ihn einfach! Go Jonah Go!Alles in Allem ein spannender Roman mit viel neuem, interessanten Wendungen und zahlreichen Überraschungen, der mich sehr gut unterhalten hat. Mein Fazit: 4 Sterne - und lesenswert, wie alle Bände zuvor. Aber unbedingt mit Bd. 1 anfangen :D
review 2: A little calmer after reading this addition to this very addictive series. I’m not sure if I love or hate this author. She has this power over my emotions and seems to love to play with her characters and thus keeps me in limbo. Just when you think you know where the series is going she shakes things us and up is down, left is right and suddenly the best friend is the harbinger of evil.Yes you heard me right. Best friend Mallory has being turned to the dark side and become addicted to black magic and turned against Merit. I must say this one didn’t surprise me all that much. Merit and Mallory have had kinda an up and down relationship since Merit was turned and Mallory discovered she was a sorceress. Still though, I am surprised at how far Neill took the character over to the dark side. Much of this story line is going to be continued in the next book, which thankfully is sitting right here next to my computer as I type this.Other shocking news in this book, Ethan is back. I was so upset over his loose in the last book, and after reading another’s review and the synopsis of future books, I did know he was coming back. I’m not sure if I’m glad he was brought back so soon, or if I would have rather Merit have to learn to stand on her own for a couple of book. I almost think it diminishes the pain we went through in the last book to bring him back at all. As if Neill did so to appease her fans. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy to see him, and I still want Merit and him to have a future together, I just think Merit could have grown more as a character without Ethan around for a couple of books. You could really see in this book how much she depended on him, he was her crutch, she needs to learn to stand without him. But he is back now and I hope the teasing of a relationship is over and the author just puts them together now.Other major plot line through this book was this nonsense with the GP. What a messed up organization. I seriously hope they tell them to go to hell and Merit ends up taking them down one member at a time. There is also a new bad guy introduced in this book. The new mayor is practically a right-wing poster child and is being manipulated by the psychopath McKetrick who was introduced in the last book. His character is a little over the top with cliques, but manages to serve his purpose. Quite frankly I hope he ends up getting his ass turned. Would serve him right to become what he is trying to destroy. less

I love this series, I can honestly say I'm addicted to these characters and I just can't stop reading about them! Chloe Neill is an incredible author, I love her dialogue, the storytelling, her world building, most especially in this novel I love the mythology. We've got multiple races of supes and we're seeing a lot more of them and learning more of their mythology. I wish the shifters, most especially Gabriel were in this more, but it was time for more Mallory. I've been a bit peeved at Mallory for a while and I've got to admit that the plot developments in Drink Deep are deeply satisfying. without spoiling this book or the previous all I can say is I'm disappointed in where the Ethan storyline is heading. That may change depending on the next book and where it takes us. I really like Jonah and I hope he takes up a permanent spot in this series.

I just cannot summon the energy to continue this book. It's dragging and has no real pow. I loved the ending of the last book but now there is nothing left for me in this one. I dont have any ideas as to where this is heading and I can't find the will power to slog through the rest of this book. Unfortunately this book will be going on my couldntfinishwouldratherclean bookshelf. No offense to the author as I love her other books but just can't make it past this point.
