Der Rabengott von Ann Leckie übersetzt von Michael Pfingstl Seit Jahrhunderten wird das Königreich Iraden von einem Gott beschützt: Er heißt der Rabe und residiert in einem Turm in der mächtigen Hafenstadt Vastai. Von dort wacht er über das Reich. Seinen göttlichen Willen lässt er über einen Rabenvogel an seinen menschlichen »Statthalter« kundtun. Der Vogel des Rabengottes ist tot, und die göttliche Regel schreibt vor, dass auch der „Statthalter“ unverzüglich sterben muss, um Platz für seinen Nachfolger zu machen. Als Mawat, der rechtmäßige Erbe, mit seinem Freund, dem Kämpfer Eolo, in der Hauptstadt eintrifft, sitzt bereits ein Regent auf dem Herrscherstuhl – sein Onkel. Mawats Zorn kennt keine Grenzen und während er versucht, sein Reich zurückzuerobern, entdeckt Eolo, dass der Turm des Raben ein dunkles Geheimnis birgt: In seinem Fundament harrt eine Prophezeiung, die, wenn sie sich erfüllt, Iraden für immer zerstören könnte. Die preisgekrönte Science Fiction-Autorin Ann Leckie legt mit dem Rabengott ihren ersten High Fantasy-Roman vor.

It is of course fascinating that we, as young people in the 80s and 90s, were so fully positioned against war. Who hasn’t had to read “All Quiet on the Western Front” over and over, was encouraged by teachers to participate in demonstrations against armament, and wondered about the few who joined the Bundeswehr voluntarily? And today you turn on the television, and they tell us almost euphorically and in a loop how ports are being made war-capable and investments in armaments are being made, while afterwards documentaries about the stimulating everyday life of soldiers as young people are presented, as if that has always been the case and overall is also a positive development. #Krieg #Frieden #Gesellschaft (translated)
