Karou führt ein Doppelleben. Kunststudentin bei Tag und Zahnbeschafferin bei Nacht. Alle halten die blauhaarige junge Frau für phantasievoll, weil sie ganze Bände mit Bildern von erstaunlichen Kreaturen füllt. Was niemand ahnt ist, dass diese Chimären existieren und die einzige Familie sind die Karou kennt. Hinter magischen Türen befindet sich Brimstones Büro, eine Chimäre, die mit Träumen und Wünschen handelt und mit Zähnen. Gelegentlich setzt er Karou als Botin ein, um Zähne aus aller Welt von

I am in the minority of this book. I didn't hate this book but I just didn't care for it. I thought it was just strange. She works with a bunch of devils but has no idea who she is or where she came from. They collect teeth, teeth to grow new monsters when the old are injured?! To top that off it is a series. Can we not just let a book is it necessary to have multiple books to tell a simple story.

What in hades did I just finish reading???
I haven't been slapped by a book like this in quite a while.

I LOVED, LOVED the first half of this book and the last 40 pages. But the stuff in the middle not so much! The writing is absolutely beautiful and the author did such a wonderful job mesmerizing us with the setting and the characters.

The enchanting story seemed to have disappeared BUT it did manage to show up again in the last section. So I will definitely be reading the next book

Got this for a past reading challenge I didn't get to, however decided to read it anyhow and found it very intriguing. Will look into getting the second book in the series to see where it will take Karou and Akiva next.
