Sonea

De Sorte Troldmænd / Kara Büyücü #1

by Trudi Canavan, Bjarne Skovlund (Translator)

[Fra bagsiden af den danske bog]

Sonea er en pige fra slumkvarteret, en helt almindelig gadetøs – lige indtil hun ved et tilfælde opdager at hun har magiske evner.

Hun vejede stenen i hånden.
Hun ønskede inderligt at ramme, bare én gang.
Af al kraft slyngede hun stenen mod de forhadte troldmænd ... Med et skarpt smæld brød stenen gennem deres magiske skjold og ramte en troldmand lige i panden ...

[Abdulkadir Öcal · Rating 2 out of 5]

Bu güne kadar okuduğum en sıkıcı fantastik romanlardan biri bu sanırım. İlk başta ilginç bir şey sunup güzel hissiyatı veriyor ama daha sonra hikaye bir türlü ilerlemiyor.

Baş karakterin büyücü loncası tarafından yakalanacağını daha ilk başta anlanan ve beklenen birşey. Çünkü hikayenin ilerlemesi için böyle bir şey olmak zorunda. Fakat hikayenin tamamında bu karakterin oradan oraya kaçmasını ve büyücülerin yakalama çabalarını okuyup duruyoruz. Bir nevi her bölümünde son anda yakalayacakken elinden kaçan Coyote ve Road Runner çizgi filmi gibi oluyor. Devamını okur muyum, emin değilim.

Sevil Okyay gibi bir çevirmenin elinden çıksa Herry Potter çevirisi kadar başarılı bir yapıt çıkardı ortaya. yine de yazar kitabı öyle güzel kurgulamış ve olay örgüsünü öyle işlemiş ki en az Potter ve yüzüklerin efendisi kadar okunmayı hak eden muazzam fantastik eserler var diye düşünerek okudum.

Kdo čeká, že Sonea: Společenství čarodějů je kniha plná krvavých šarvátek a magických střetů, bude zklamán. Kniha nás totiž pomalu seznamuje se světem, v němž Sonea žije a přibližuje nám její život – ukazuje, kde vyrůstala a za jakých podmínek. Na druhé straně máme Společenství čarodějů, kde se místo kouzlení dočkáme hlavně politikaření a pletichaření. Mladí čarodějové totiž pocházejí z rodů – patří mezi bohaté vrstvy, a tak mají jisté vlastnosti v krvi již od narození. Ovšem i zde se najdou výjimky a některým čarodějům život lidí ve slumech není až tak lhostejný.

Good, I like that, because I've read the magician's apprentice, I have a larger knowledge of the faraway past of this fantasy world than some of the character in the book. However, that could also be a downside since we don't follow the same people in this book at all. they actually need to open a history book in order to find out what happen in the magician's apprentice, amusing.
