Histoire
They say that the Thorn of Camorr can beat anyone in a fight. They say he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. They say he's part man, part myth, and mostly street-corner rumor. And they are wrong on every count. Only averagely tall, slender, and god-awful with a sword, Locke Lamora is the fabled Thorn, and the greatest weapons at his disposal are his wit and cunning. He steals from the rich - they're the only ones worth stealing from - but the poor can go steal for themselves.

Gavin Guile is the Prism, the most powerful man in the world. He is high priest and emperor, a man whose power, wit, and charm are all that preserves a tenuous peace.

At the Convent of Sweet Mercy, young girls are raised to be killers. In a few the old bloods show, gifting talents rarely seen since the tribes beached their ships on Abeth. Sweet Mercy hones its novices' skills to deadly effect: it takes 10 years to educate a Red Sister in the ways of blade and fist. But even the mistresses of sword and shadow don't truly understand what they have purchased when Nona Grey is brought to their halls as a bloodstained child of eight, falsely accused of murder - guilty of worse.

Histoire
According to mythology, mankind used to live in 'The Tranquiline Halls': heaven. But then the Voidbringers assaulted and captured heaven, casting out God and men. Men took root on Roshar, the world of storms, but the Voidbringers followed. The Almighty gave men powerful suits of armor and mystical weapons, the Shardblades. Led by 10 angelic Heralds and 10 orders of knights known as Radiants, mankind finally won (or so the legends say).

Description
Prince of Thorns is the first volume in a powerful new epic fantasy trilogy, original, absorbing and challenging. Before the thorns taught me their sharp lessons and bled weakness from me I had but one brother, and I loved him well. But those days are gone and what is left of them lies in my mother's tomb. Now I have many brothers, quick with knife and sword, and as evil as you please. We ride this broken empire and loot its corpse. They say these are violent times, the end of days when the dead roam and monsters haunt the night.
All that's true enough, but there's something worse out there, in the dark. Much worse. From being a privileged royal child, raised by a loving mother, Jorg Ancrath has become the Prince of Thorns, a charming, immoral boy leading a grim band of outlaws in a series of raids and atrocities. The world is in chaos: violence is rife, nightmares everywhere. Jorg has the ability to master the living and the dead, but there is still one thing that puts a chill in him. Returning to his father's castle Jorg must confront horrors from his childhood and carve him a future with all hands turned against him. Mark Lawrence's debut novel tells a tale of blood and treachery, magic and brotherhood and paints a compelling and brutal, and sometimes beautiful, picture of an exceptional boy on his journey toward manhood and the throne.

Dark, violent, sarcastic and unapologetic about it
Any additional comments?
Prince Jorg was faced with the murder of his mother and brother and it transformed him and his world view. He is not a “BATMAN” out to save the world, but just one more “BAD MAN” living in it but not giving in to it. Equipped with his own unique ultra-morals he makes his merry way and to hell with those living or dead who cross him.

A refreshing points of view
Highly recommended to however enjoys a dark protagonist, grim tale and unique setting.
The book sparks discussion on morality, choice and will, especially at the end. The setting is pretty interesting, not overrated and with its own spin on magic and technology, load of hints to keep you guessing.
The MC is consistent and has a charming inner monologue. I feared it might become repetitive but was wrong.
It's refreshing because the MC is evil, no redeeming value, just ambition, cruelty and a supreme will and couldn't get enough of him.
After reading too many white knight protagonist, finally somebody who sees the world from the usually opposite point of view.
A villain amongst villains.
Narrator is on top, balancing perfectly between sarcasm and depth. I feel the voice is perfect for the Prince, since it carries so much arrogance and recklessness that MAKES the character.
Great read, will for sure keep on reading more.

Great, fresh and unique.
Narrator gives a very on point portrayal of the main character. A very gripping story if you enjoy a protagonist who is quite crazy, ruthless and unpredictable. Great book overall, but at times feels a bit rushed, especially the ending.

A cunning, cruel and ruthless protagonist.
Joe Jameson's captivating performance is the reason I finished this book in record time, though his accent may present an obstacle to non native English speakers.

Same parts interesting as it was confusing
Enjoyed setting and tone, but it was hard to follow and to care about anyone. Seemingly pointless dream-sequences mixed with interesting flashbacks, that never felt fully fleshed out confused me and made me reapeat some chapters multiple times. Never had to do this before.
The book is probably better read than listened to, but I am intrigued and will try the second one.

anstrengendes Hörerlebnis
Die Art und Weise, in der das Buch geschrieben ist, ist schon gut. Also die Wortwahl macht Spass beim hören. Allerdings spricht der Erzähler äußerst anstrengendes british-english. Wenn man kurz unaufmerksam ist, muss man ganze Passagen erneut hören und auch die Zeitlinie im Buch macht es einem nicht leichter, mit Sprüngen vor und zurück. Das Setting erschließt sich mir leider auch nicht ganz, es gibt Schwerter und Könige, Geister, Skelette und Atombomben. Hab das erste Buch jetzt fertig und entweder ich gebs zurück, oder ich les eine Zusammenfassung und die anderen beiden auf Papier.

This book is just a collection of brutality.
A 14 year old sadistic brat of a prince commands a band of outlaws to win unlikely victories. There was not a single thing in this book I could like. I am totally disappointed after I read so many praising reviews.

Etwas andere High Fantasy
In "Prince of Thorns" folgen wir einem Prinzen im Exil, der sich einen Namen machen und seinen Thron zurückbekommen will. Es ist eigentlich die klassische "Ein-Auserwählter-auf-seinem-Weg-zu-großen-Taten"-Geschichte. Nur waren in bekannten Beispiele wie "Prinz Eisenherz" die Hauptcharaktere immer hochmoralische Gutmenschen mit großem Herz und einer beinah naiven Ideologie.
Hier haben wir einen quälenden, mordenden, arroganten Superschurken. Und es macht so viel Spaß ihm zuzuhören. Vor allem da Joe Jameson in wirklich gut zum Leben erweckt. Und der nordenglische Akzent rundet es großartig ab.
Beste Szene: Ein Engel bietet ihm den Eintritt in den Himmel an und er antwortet mit Verachtung für Gott und seine Schergen und kommt mit Gewalt wieder zu Sinnen. Classic.
Und als Kirsche auf dem Eisbecher kommt manchmal durch, dass das ganze eigentlich in einer postapokalyptischen Zukunft spielt. Quite the ride.
Einziger Minuspunkt ist, dass es auf Dauer manchmal etwas viel wird und man etwas anderes braucht, bevor es wieder denselben Spaß macht. Ansonsten sehr zu empfehlen.

Kann man, muss man aber nicht...
Ich kann mich hier meinem Vorredner nur anschließen - mich hat die Geschichte einfach nicht gefesselt. Weder die Hauptfigur konnte mich begeistern, noch die Handlung. Jorg blieb die ganze Zeit über irgendwie "zweidimensional" nenne ich es mal - der Charakter kam für mich einfach nicht rund rüber.
Die Geschichte selbst hat es mir auch nicht wirklich angetan, weder der Handlungsstrang, noch besondere Ereignisse, noch besonders spannende Momente konnten mich in dieser Welt fesseln. Zu Ende gehört habe ich es nur, weil ich gerade keinen WLan Zugang hatte im mir was anderes runterzuladen...

Enttäuschung
Prince of Thorns ist eines der wenigen Hörbücher, die ich nicht zu Ende gehört habe. Ich bin auf dieses Buch als Empfehlung zu Joe Abercrombie gestoßen, hätte mir aber wahrlich Besseres erwartet. Ich kann mich nur schwer mit dem Protagonisten, Jorg, anfreunden. Dieser ist als Antiheld konstruiert, seine Persönlichkeit scheint mir aber nicht ganz durchdacht. Für seine gerade einmal 15 Jahre hat er einige seltsame Eigenschaften und kann mir zu viel, ist mir zu brutal. Hört man ihm bei seinen Erzählungen zu, würde man ihn wohl eher an die Vierzig, eher aufwärts, schätzen. Auch die Welt, in der die Geschichte spielt, ist zwar interessant, aber unrund. Ritter und Schwerter und Könige und Schlösser, die einmal Wolkenkratzer waren. Eine kleine Abweichung von den Fantasyromanen, die man sonst immer liest/hört. Könnte interessant sein, ist aber unausgereift und lückenhaft.
Mein Fall war das Buch nicht - ist aber auch Geschmackssache.
