Da der Autor in meiner Lieblingsbuchhandlung eine Lesung hatte, wollte ich doch unbedingt etwas von ihm lesen. Seine Reihe Scarlett & Browne klang interessant, deshalb habe ich kurzentschlossen zu Band 1 gegriffen. You really do need to read book one though to understand the country and whats happened and who Scarlett and Browne are.

The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne: Scarlett and Browne, Book 1 The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne: Scarlett and Browne, Book 1

The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne is a book that is firing on all cylinders, and one hell of a start to a series that I will be reading the very second I can get my hands on each installment. I can’t wait for the next adventure! The Notorious Scarlett and Browne is the installment in which we focus more on Scarlett, as opposed to how its predecessor, The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne, focused on our Albert Browne. In this book, Albert shows how much he's matured in his own way, whether Scarlett really likes it or not. It has given him the ability to connect with Scarlett on a whole different level, and that really showed in a lot of the scenes featured in this book (all of which I really loved). Set in a broken, future England, where gunfights and monsters collide, this is the exciting first title in a phenomenal fantasy teen series by the bestselling children's novelist.Now, I can assume the answers to these questions. And since we don't get answers, assumption is all we've got. I can assume, but I might be wrong. I can assume that the Tainted are zombies, possibly caused by exposure to radiation. I can assume that they might be the people with deformities of some kind that were banished from the towns and cast out into the wilds. I can assume the world was destroyed by nukes. But I don't know any of these things. Ahoy there me mateys! In this second book of the series, the outlaws Scarlett and Browne are continuing their life of bank robbery and survival. Much of the joy of this installment is watching how much the duo has grown by interacting with each other. Scarlett remains snarky and awesome. Browne is the tempering force that is teaching her how to be less selfish. Scarlett is teaching him the life skills he needs not to die. Both are still learning to trust and depend on another person. The banter between them delights.

Everything in this book is firing on all cylinders. There are action setpieces that will leave your heart pounding. The world keeps expanding, as we see the glimmers of good amid countless atrocities in this dystopian England. Stroud leaves gentle indicators of where the series might go next, but tells satisfyingly complete stories within each book. And of course, there is plenty of humor, including a very funny execution sequence (not a term you often hear!) and some hilarious ballads about our favorite outlaws. This is a fast-paced fantasy adventure filled with thrills, humour and the most charismatic anti-heroes in teen fiction. It’s a highly anticipated read for 2021, and we’re certain you’ll be gripped throughout and hungry for more adventures by the end.”

Albert was nothing but a nuisance to Scarlett but became her friend. Scarlett started off as a guide to Albert and ended up becoming Albert's inspiration. The book is set in England after some huge disaster, most of the land is flooded or abandoned and there are only a few towns left, the rest is just wilderness. What do you think about the setting of this story? There are many dystopian stories out there, but mostly targeted at older readers. Why do you think that is?Scarlett gave a bleak half-smile. “It is not really so strange. When I sit upon it, I am in a state of grace.” As they flee together across the wilds, fighting off monstrous beasts, and dodging their pursuers, Scarlett comes to realize that Albert Browne is hiding a terrible secret. And that hemay be the most dangerous threat of all.

The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne by Jonathan Stroud | Goodreads

I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to just escape and have some fun in another world for a while.... Read Full Review Change couldn't be stopped, it couldn't be controlled. Sure as the debris brought in on the ceaseless tides, it would go on unendingly, for better or for worse. I loved The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne. I think it was wonderfully written and the world was real enough to get inside. I felt like I was really on the adventure with Scarlett and Albert, and they were delightful characters to go on an adventure with. I laughed a lot, and I've grown so attached to every character in this series, I'm both terrified and ridiculously excited to see where book 3 is going to go! Five stars from me!To win their freedom, the outlaws Scarlett and Browne are charged with pulling off an impossible mission. In this world, any child who has physical or mental difference is cast out of the cities. Albert was put in a prison and tortured for being different and Scarlett was cast out for an unknown reason. By living on the river, a boat operator protects his granddaughter who's unable to speak from the scorn of the cities. This book is so cool! I love that the girl rescues the boy instead of the other way around which usually happens. Albert gave a delighted cry. "Hey - it's 'The Ballad of Scarlett and Browne'! They've got one of ours!" Albert and Scarlett are a formidable pair. With his ability to read minds and her way with a weapon, no bank can keep them out and no jail can keep them in.
