Crying In The Rain

100%Melanie, ein Name, der hält, was er verspricht. Zwar weiß niemand, wer Melanie ist, weil @100-melanie eigentlich Lea heißt und welche Versprechungen er erfüllt, ist auch schwer zu sagen, aber dass er sie erfüllt ist wissenschaftlich erwiesen. Nachdem jetzt hoffentlich alle ausreichend verwirrt sind vielleicht noch ein bisschen was dazu, was 100%Melanie so macht. Als Mitveranstalterin des Labors sorgt sie im Contrast in Konstanz für abwechslungsreiche, unkommerzielle, durchgetanzte Dienstagabende und unser geliebtes Teleport Festival wäre ohne sie auch nur halb so schön gewesen. Auflegen tut sie auch (irgendwie logisch wenn es ne Flausette von ihr gibt) und spätestens nachdem ihr auf Play gedrückt habt versteht ihr das mit dem Namen und dem Versprechen. 100% Abwechslung, 100% happy Vibes only,  100% Sommerzeitmaschine, 100% Tanzdrang und 0% das Gefühl, dass die Welt so scheiße ist, wie sie eigentlich wirklich ist. Freut euch drauf 51 Minuten lang vergessen zu können, dass es im Januar keine 22 Grad haben sollte, dass die Scheißbullen mit Unterstützung der Grünen in Lützerath gerade die Interessen eines Konzerns durchprügeln, der seit mindestens 30 Jahren auf die Mülldeponie der Geschichte gehört oder dass Amseln zu dieser Jahreszeit morgens noch nicht singen sollten. Darüber machen wir uns in einer Stunde wieder Gedanken und tanken bis dahin die Energie, die wir brauchen um die ganze Scheiße zu ertragen. Und keine Sorge, die Energie ist 100% nach-, 0% blei- und 100% melaniehaltig. <3

Naomi Novik’s stunning series of novels follow the adventures of Cpt Laurence and his dragon Temeraire as they travel from the shores of Britain to China and Africa. 

 Laurence and Temeraire made a daring journey across vast and inhospitable continents to bring home a rare Turkish dragon from the treacherous Ottoman Empire.

Kazilik dragons are firebreathers, and Britain is in greater need of protection than ever, for while Laurence and Temeraire were away, an epidemic struck British shores and is killing off her greatest defence – her dragon air force is slowly dying.

The dreadful truth must be kept from Napoleon at all costs. Allied with the white Chinese dragon, Lien, he would not hestitate to take advantage of Britain's weakness and launch a devasting invasion.

Hope lies with the only remaining healthy dragon – Temeraire cannot stay at home, but must once again venture into the unknown to help his friends and seek out a cure in darkest Africa.
