Simonettas Schatten IIDrei Meter Luftlinie zwischen einem Balkon und einem gegenberliegenden Fenster in einer schmalen florentinischen Gasse erzeugten einst ein schicksalhaftes Band zwischen dem Maler Giorgio und seinem kindlichen Schler und Nachbarn Anselm. Geprgt von Giorgios Wesen und selbst Maler geworden, kehrt Anselm drei Dekaden spter zurck nach Florenz, den Ort seiner Anfnge, und schliet damit einen lngst begonnenen Kreis. Auslser fr diesen ueren Aufbruch aus Rom

Drei Meter Luftlinie zwischen einem Balkon und einem gegenüberliegenden Fenster in einer schmalen florentinischen Gasse erzeugten einst ein schicksalhaftes Band zwischen dem Maler Giorgio und seinem kindlichen Schüler und Nachbarn Anselm. Geprägt von Giorgios Wesen und selbst Maler geworden, kehrt Anselm drei Dekaden später zurück nach Florenz, den Ort seiner Anfänge, und schließt damit einen längst begonnenen Kreis. Auslöser für diesen äußeren Aufbruch aus Rom ist Anselms innerer Abbruch mit seinem bisherigen Leben und vor allem mit der verloren geglaubten Malerei. Anselms Reise am tiefsten Punkt seines Schaffens führt ihn zuerst nach Sizilien zu seinem Freund Umberto, in dessen Haus er etwas Ruhe zu finden hofft, doch stattdessen den quirligen Malerkollegen Henry und das rätselhafte Bildnis einer Frau aus der Renaissance über Umbertos Bett entdeckt. Giorgio Vasaris Zeichnung einer gewissen Genoveva provoziert durch seine der Renaissancezeit nicht so ganz gemäßen Technik Anselms malerisches Urteil. Die Behauptung Umbertos, diese Genoveva scheine historisch nirgends auf, so müsse sie Vasaris Fantasie entsprungen sein, überreizt Anselms malerisches Wissen, welches davon überzeugt ist, dass diese Zeichnung der Betrachtung und nicht der inneren Vorstellung entspringt. Anselms Resignation wandelt sich in Leidenschaft und Neugierde. Wie konnte Giorgio Vasari in einer der Renaissance etwas zu fortgeschrittenen Technik eine Frau gezeichnet haben, von der es historisch kein Zeugnis gibt? Dieser zweifache Widerspruch nimmt einen schicksalhaften Besitz von Anselms Gemüt und führt ihn zurück in seine Geburtsstadt Florenz, wo er nur mit seinem Skizzenbuch gewappnet, ein Geschenk von Giorgio, des Rätsels Lösung zu finden hofft. Des Rätsels Pfad, gepflastert mit tiefgehenden Begegnungen und Erlebnissen, bringt Anselm zum Ursprung seiner Malerei zurück, wobei er ihn in Welten hineintaucht, wo Wörter und Linien verschmelzen. Welten, die man getrost als Geburtsstätte aller Motive bezeichnen kann. ZITAT ÜBER DIE MALEREI Ludwig Drahosch: "Die wahren Maler sehen die Welt anders. Sie sehen sie nicht bloß in Bildern, die sich ihren passiven Sinnen aufprägen, nein, sie durchdringen und wandern aktiv mit ihrem Geist in das Geschaute hinein und suchen darin und dahinter nach den Urmotiven, aus denen die sinnlichen Wirklichkeiten entstehen. Und dann versuchen sie nicht, diese bloß wiederzugeben, sie versuchen, sie zu bejahen, sie sagen, schau, Bild, ich habe dich gesehen und erkannt, ich zeige dir, wie schön du bist, beruhige dich, vertraue mir ...¿! Die Maler versöhnen in ihren Bildern die Welt mit sich selbst."

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.
