Among the books myself, I can only say that the story is really compelling and Duch out is also adapted to captivate readers outside of the actual target group (teenagers) to the book. Once you've started to read, it's really very difficult to put the book aside. A direct comparison between the German and the original English version falls for me out clearly to the effect that I recommend to read the original. Even if the German translation is really good, it's almost impossible to convey really smallest linguistic nuances in the translation.
The box is relatively unstable: thin cardboard, came with me, unfortunately, damaged (with Delle and verknickter corner) to. Is probably unfortunately the handling during shipping and in this case, less than optimal packaging attributed.
Conclusion: I can only recommend to buy this box, next to the books (by the way with removable dust jacket, including the book is simply black), there are 4 prints of each title image of the book in postcard format, on the back respectively the "main quote" reprinted from the book is (nice touch).
