Helka #2

Ciprián - A Balaton hercege

Rate this book
Az új kötetben Helka testvére, Ciprián kap főszerepet.
Felbukkan egy kopott bundás, ha innen nézem macska, ha onnan inkább tyúkszerű lény, Mitmitke. Megjelenésével izgalmas kalandok sora veszi kezdetét. Az előző kötetből megismert szereplők útjuk során új barátokat és ellenségeket szereznek.
Megtudjuk, hogyan keletkezett száz halom Battán, tengerszem Megyer-hegyi malomkőbányában, földvár a Balatonnál, vagy a Sió csatorna. A fődipicinyek, nyápicok, dinkák, sziporkák, csordásfarkasok, Zemúr és Mitmitke, úgy gabalyítják a történet szálait, hogy azok az óbudavári mosókutat övező fa gyökereihez lesznek hasonlatosak.
Ciprián a varázslat helyett a józan ész hatalmában bízik, ám elvarázsolja az az érzés, ami néha elveszi az eszünket

The second book of the Helka trilogy starts exactly where the first book ended. We continue our story against a new antagonist called Zemúr, new travels of our heroes now different parts of Hungary, mainly the Bükk mountains in the North-East. The Hungarian prose continues to be effortlessly magnificent, it is a joy to read from beginning to end. I had more issues with the story this time, as it remains again a very linear plot, very similar to the first book. While it is suitable to the age group of 10+ (I think some elements of this book make this book 10+, and not 8+ as the first one), there's very little addition or new approach compared to the first. It uses the well worn formula of a children's fantasy book and does not have anything to make it memorable above that. The final confrontation with Zemúr is also quite poorly handled unfortunately. It is still a good book, well worth reading after the first one, but as a book itself, it does not improve upon the first one at all, instead just takes the same formula and weaves another similar story around it.
