  • "Errand requiring immediate attention. Come. The note was on vellum, pierced by the talons of the almost-crow that delivered it. Karou read the message. 'He never says please', she sighed, but she gathered up her things. When Brimstone called, she always came. In general, Karou has managed to keep her two lives in balance. On the one hand, she's a seventeen-year-old art student in Prague; on the other, errand-girl to a monstrous creature who is the closest thing she has to family. Raised half in our world, half in 'Elsewhere', she has never understood Brimstone's dark work - buying teeth from hunters and murderers - nor how she came into his keeping. She is a secret even to herself, plagued by the sensation that she isn't whole. Now the doors to Elsewhere are closing, and Karou must choose between the safety of her human life and the dangers of a war-ravaged world that may hold the answers she has always sought."

  • ""Karou es una estudiante de arte de 17 años que vive en Praga. Pero ese no es su único mundo. A veces, Karou desaparece en misteriosos viajes para realizar los encargos de Brimstone, el monstruo quimera que la adoptó al nacer. Tan misteriosa resulta Karou para sus amigos, como lo es para ella su propia vida: ¿cómo es que ha acabado formando parte de una familia de monstruos quimera? ¿Para qué necesita su padre adoptivo tantos dientes, especialmente de humanos? Y, ¿por qué tiene esa recurrente sensación de vacío, de haber olvidado algo? De pronto, empiezan a aparecen marcas de manos en las puertas, señal de que la familia de Karou corre grave peligro. Karou tratará de cruzar al mundo quimérico para ayudarles, pero es perseguida por los serafines. Entre ellos se encuentra Akiva, un ángel arrebatadoramente hermoso al que Karou está unida de forma que ni ella misma puede imaginar."--Casa del libro."
  • "Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky.In a dark and dusty shop, a devil's supply of human teeth grown dangerously low.And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war.Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real; she's prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands"; she speaks many languages--not all of them human; and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she's about to find out.When one of the strangers--beautiful, haunted Akiva--fixes his fire-colored eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?"@en
  • "Daughter of Smoke and Bone is a book unbounded by genre but located at a magical crossroads where The Passage meets Philip Pullman and Twilight meets Pan's Labyrinth."@en
  • "Karou (17) is opgevoed door een chimaera die wensen vervult in ruil voor tanden. Ze gaat op zoek naar haar identiteit en komt terecht in de eeuwenoude, bloederige strijd tussen engelen en chimaera's. Vanaf ca. 15 jaar."
