Vianoce sú tu. Teda, čoskoro. November bol pre mňa veľmi hektický mesiac, a preto som prečítala len 3 knihy. Mala som totiž stužkovú, riadila som väčšinu príprav a posledný víkend boli ešte aj dozvuky, takže na čítanie a nič iné vlastne neostal čas. Dostala sa ku mne jedna úžasná pecka, jedna taká veľmi fajn knižka a jedno sklamanie. Tak tu sú.

Málokedy ma YA fantasy prekvapí tak, ako táto kniha. Even the darkest stars je high fantasy plné dobrodružstva, čarodejníc, drakov, duchov a (nezvyčajne) horolezectva!

Kamzin has always dreamed of becoming one of the emperor’s royal explorers, the elite climbers tasked with mapping the wintry, mountainous Empire and spying on its enemies. She knows she could be the best in the world, if only someone would give her a chance.
But everything changes when the mysterious and eccentric River Shara, the greatest explorer ever known, arrives in her village and demands to hire Kamzin—not her older sister, Lusha, as everyone had expected—for his next expedition. This is Kamzin’s chance to prove herself—even though River’s mission to retrieve a rare talisman for the emperor means climbing Raksha, the tallest and deadliest mountain in the Aryas. Then, Lusha sets off on her own mission to Raksha with a rival explorer, and Kamzin must decide what’s most important to her: protecting her sister from the countless perils of the climb or beating her to the summit.
The challenges of climbing Raksha are unlike anything Kamzin expected—or prepared for—with avalanches, ice chasms, ghosts, and other dangers at every turn. And as dark secrets are revealed, Kamzin must unravel the truth about their mission and her companions—while surviving the deadliest climb she has ever faced.
