Dream Master: Arabian Nights

"Every dream has a Dream Master to control it. But Cy has such a vivid imagination that he has met his Dream Master and can travel with him through Time and Space to actually live his dreams. But what would happen if a character from Cy's dream decided to come and live in his Time and Space? Well Cy's about to find out. He's accidentally conjured up the Princess Shahr-Azad from Ancient Arabia - creator of the 1001 tales of Arabian Nights. Cy and the Dream Master are keen to return the Princess back to her home, before she is discovered. Trouble is, the princess isn't keen to go back. She'd much rather stay and enter the upcoming TV talent contest and she's prepared to go to great lengths to get her own way. So begins a battle of wills (and imaginations) between the greatest storyteller of all time, and the timid but determined Cy. With flying carpets, Arabian dungeons and a trouble-making genie Cy's fourth adventure with his Dream Master is as fast and funny as before."

[German] - Robin Hood: Band 5

"In der Übergangsphase zum Erwachsensein sind die jungen Menschen besonders sensibel gegen Ungerechtigkeit, gegen Ungleichheit und im Wunsch nach einer besseren Welt. Dies ist auch das Anliegen von Robin Hood und seinen Freunden, die gemeinsam durch dick und dünn gehen, die sehr verschiedene Charaktere haben und doch zusammen halten, um gemeinsam Abenteuer zu erleben. Eine rasche Abfolge von Erlebnissen und Gefahren lässt keine Langeweile aufkommen."

[German] - Die Schatzinsel: Klassiker für die ganze Familie: Band 7

"Vielfältige Charaktere sind in diesem Klassiker in einem Spiel auf Leben und Tod verbunden. Nie geht die Spannung verloren, die Reise mit dem Schiff ist für Jim Hawkins eine Möglichkeit, hinaus in die Welt zu gehen und sich zu bewähren. Er ordnet sich nicht unter und geht immer wieder eigene Wege. Es wird auch gezeigt, wie die Gier nach Gold und Geld manche Menschen zu Übeltätern und Bestien macht. Es wird auch klar, wie manche Menschen am Alkohol scheitern - selbst der Lange John Silver, der Anführer der Piraten, warnt seine Kumpane vergeblich davor."

The story of power-hungry mouls - and of two Munrung brothers, who set out on an adventure to end all adventures when their village is flattened.
