Tisdagstrion V.45 - Dag eller natt i titeln

Denna veckan är Temat för Tisdagstrion från Ugglan och Boken: 

Dag eller natt i titeln. 

I min bokhylla var det svårare än vad jag trodde att hitta något som stämde överens med detta. Dag kunde jag inte ens hitta, så här är det natt för hela slanten.

Lu Marie Batman - Nightwalker (DC icon series #2)

Att läsa om Batman i romanform var definitivt min kopp av te. Nu var det ett tag sedan och jag kommer inte ihåg mycket mer än att jag tyckte det var väldigt underhållande. Det var inte så mycket om Batman just, utan mer om Bruce som ung.

Returning home from his lavish eighteenth birthday party, Bruce Wayne stops a criminal's getaway - disobeying the police and crashing his car during the chase.
Sentenced to community service in Gotham City's Arkham Asylum, he encounters some of the the city's most dangerous and mentally disturbed criminals. Among these, Bruce meets the intriguing Madeleine who has ties to the Nightwalker gang that is terrorizing Gotham City.

She's a mystery Bruce has to unravel but can he trust her? The Nightwalkers target the rich, and Bruce's name is next on their list.

Morgenstern Erin The Night Circus

Den här boken hade jag lite svårt för. Det var mycket ord och inte mycket som blev sagt och det som blev sagt kändes lite flummigt. Så Morgensterns sätt att skriva var nog inget för mig, men det verkar finnas många som älskar hennes böcker.

The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des R ves, and it is only open at night.

But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway--a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them, this is a game in which only one can be left standing, and the circus is but the stage for a remarkable battle of imagination and will. Despite themselves, however, Celia and Marco tumble headfirst into love--a deep, magical love that makes the lights flicker and the room grow warm whenever they so much as brush hands.

True love or not, the game must play out, and the fates of everyone involved, from the cast of extraordinary circus per­formers to the patrons, hang in the balance, suspended as precariously as the daring acrobats overhead.

Tahir Sabaa A Torch Against the Night, (An Ember in the Ashes #2)

Jag har läst första boken i denna serien och denna, men jag kommer inte ihåg så mycket. Jag har för mig att jag tyckte de var bra när det begav sig, men jag är inte lika säker på att jag skulle tycka lika bra om dem idag. Det är nog mest därför jag inte fortsatt på serien. 

After the events of the Fourth Trial, Martial soldiers hunt the two fugitives as they flee the city of Serra and undertake a perilous journey through the heart of the Empire.

Laia is determined to break into Kauf--the Empire's most secure and dangerous prison--to save her brother, who is the key to the Scholars' survival. And Elias is determined to help Laia succeed, even if it means giving up his last chance at freedom.

But dark forces, human and otherworldly, work against Laia and Elias. The pair must fight every step of the way to outsmart their enemies: the bloodthirsty Emperor Marcus, the merciless Commandant, the sadistic Warden of Kauf, and, most heartbreaking of all, Helene--Elias's former friend and the Empire's newest Blood Shrike.

Bound to Marcus's will, Helene faces a torturous mission of her own--one that might destroy her: find the traitor Elias Veturius and the Scholar slave who helped him escape...and kill them both.
