Jeder schweigt von etwas anderem. Auf den ersten Blick ist Dunkelblum eine Kleinstadt wie jede andere. Doch hinter der Fassade der österreichischen Gemeinde verbirgt sich die Geschichte eines furchtbaren Verbrechens. Ihr Wissen um das Ereignis verbindet die älteren Dunkelblumer seit Jahrzehnten - genauso wie ihr Schweigen über Tat und Täter. In den Spätsommertagen des Jahres 1989, während hinter der nahegelegenen Grenze zu Ungarn bereits Hunderte DDR-Flüchtlinge warten, trifft ein rätselhafter Besucher in der Stadt ein. Da geraten die Dinge plötzlich in Bewegung: Auf einer Wiese am Stadtrand wird ein Skelett ausgegraben und eine junge Frau verschwindet. Wie in einem Spuk tauchen Spuren des alten Verbrechens auf - und konfrontieren die Dunkelblumer mit einer Vergangenheit, die sie längst für erledigt hielten. In ihrem neuen Roman entwirft Eva Menasse ein großes Geschichts-panorama am Beispiel einer kleinen Stadt, die immer wieder zum Schauplatz der Weltpolitik wird, und erzählt vom Umgang der Bewohner mit einer historischen Schuld. 'Dunkelblum' ist ein schaurig-komisches Epos über die Wunden in der Landschaft und den Seelen der Menschen, die, anders als die Erinnerung, nicht vergehen. 'Die ganze Wahrheit wird, wie der Name schon sagt, von allen Beteiligten gemeinsam gewusst. Deshalb kriegt man sie nachher nie mehr richtig zusammen. Denn von jenen, die ein Stück von ihr besessen haben, sind dann immer gleich ein paar schon tot. Oder sie lügen, oder sie haben ein schlechtes Gedächtnis.'

Intriguing
Format: Kindle
An intriguing story that played out slowly while introducing some unique characters. The story became quite fascinating to read as these same characters provided startling revelations to their lives. As their relationships evolve, more drama and mystery is revealed adding to my fascination. I can’t wait to read more.

Outstanding Story!!!!!!!
Format: Kindle
Oh I loved this story. Sera is such an amazing, fun character. She has so much fire inside of herself. She has humor that makes you laugh with her sassy comments. The guys are fantastic. I don’t feel as if we really have gotten to know who and what they are but they are such a mix of fae. The story is extremely well written and developed. It had me pulled in and didn’t let go. There was so much action, drama, and suspense. Then we get to the ending and goodness there is so much going on. This ending was a major cliffhanger and I absolutely can’t wait to see what happens next.

Exceptional
Format: Kindle
I think this an exciting entertaining story different from other fantasy reverse harmen story. I love the 1st book in this series and hope it continues to weave a story of friendship, love and disappointment as well as sadness. The cliffhanger was gripping and held you in suspense that waiting until the next book was released was almost too much. I’m so glad I waited to read this series until the majority of the books were released. Katie May and Quinn Arthur’s are wonderful writers and I’m looking forward to reading more from both of them.

I don’t mind a cliffhanger,
Format: Kindle
but I dropped at least one star because of the obnoxious gloating of the author after the cliffhanger. Seriously - I don’t understand making your readers angry because you’re smug and expecting them to keep reading your books. I was very definitely enjoying the series. Now I have a bad taste in my mouth and mixed feelings about continuing the series.

The series as a whole so far 5/25
Format: Kindle
I read reviews before going into this book and I don't agree with one of the more harsh ones on the main trigger she had. It is stated clearly in the forward and it wasn't as blase as it was made out to be. It definitely is touched on more and hasn't just been brushed off as the series goes I definitely would recommend reading it. It's a good series just be for-warned I like the series as a whole. The characters are awesome I adore the fmc shes cute and adorable but also a badass. Though there are a bunch of holes for her that I feel like just got left out. The guys are interesting and shout out to yall for not making Gage a dragon. I'm tired of the broody ones who don't wanna talk aboit what they are being Dragons. Ki is my favorite You can definitely tell if is written by 2 different people though because the phrasing just doesn't match up and wouldn't be something people that age says. And it flip flops between them. I feel like there's substance without substance. We are 4 books in and we don't really know much back story on literally anyone more than right under surface deep. There are definitely favorite MMCs which is kind of disappointing since some get shoved to the wayside. Specifically both of the best friends. They're basically useless and it's made obvious as the books go on. As well as all the men are ungodly self deprecating. I enjoy the plot line for the most part like I said I enjoy the series its different and refreshing. I do feel like the series is being dragged out though unfortunately. And the latest cliff hanger was just meh. So hopefully the next book is the last one.
