Genesis #1-3

by Wolfgang Hohlbein, Heike Hohlbein

Einst herrschten die mächtigen Elder über die Erde, doch ein schrecklicher Krieg beendete ihre Herrschaft und ließ sie in einen jahrtausendelangen Schlaf sinken. Nun sind sie erwacht und wollen sich die Erde erneut untertan machen. Verzweifelt versuchen der junge Ben und die Autistin Sasha sie aufzuhalten, denn in einer Welt der Elder hat die Menschheit keinen Platz mehr.

About the author

Wolfgang Hohlbein is a German author of science fiction, fantasy and horror fiction who lives near Neuss, North Rhine-Westphalia. His wife, Heike, is also a writer and often works with her husband. She often comes up with the story ideas and therefore is generally credited as co-author. Their daughter, Rebecca, is also a writer.

Writing short stories since age 15, Hohlbein was first recognized as an author after sending in a manuscript he and his wife had written at a fantasy and science fiction writing contest in 1982. They won and their book, Märchenmond (English title: "Magic Moon"), was published by Ueberreuter Publishing, soon becoming a bestseller and winning several awards. It is one of their greatest successes till today.

Many of his more than 200 books are translated and published in many European countries as well as in South Korea. Yet for many years none of his works had been translated into English. In 2006, Magic Moon was translated into English and published in the United States.

Reviews

[Christian · Rating 2 out of 5]

Wolfgang Hohlbein schreibt einen Roman über die Grossen Alten was soll da schon schief gehen? Das war mien Gedanke als ich den Roman gekauft habe. Leider geht eine Menge schief und der Roman zieht sich über 1300 Seiten in denen wening, oder wenig neues geschiet Ich bin ein großer Fan des Hexer von Salem, aber Genesis ist wirklich hart an der Schmerzgrenze.
