Ein Jahr ist vergangen, seitdem Kari das magische Isslar mit seinen Eisdrachen, Elfen und Vulkanen zurückgelassen hat. Doch die Sehnsucht nach dem charismatischen Andrik und die Ungewissheit darüber, wer sie ist, lassen Kari nicht los und treiben sie zurück nach Island. Doch kaum ist Kari durch das Grüne Tor nach Isslar getreten, gerät sie in einen Strudel aus Machtspielen und Intrigen. Denn was Kari bei ihrer Ankunft nicht ahnt: Auch die Assassinin Cecily ist nach Isslar zurückgekehrt. Mit einer ganz eigenen Mission: Cecily will nicht nur den schönen, geheimnisvollen Andrik für sich gewinnen, sondern auch die Macht über Khyona an sich reißen. Und sie ist nicht die Einzige, die Unfrieden und Krieg mit sich bringt: Seit Jahren bedroht der Kampf gegen die Eisdrachen den Frieden der Stadt. Karis besondere Bindung zu diesen mächtigen Geschöpfen macht sie zu einer ganz besonderen Vermittlerin – und stellt ihre Beziehung zu Andrik auf eine schwierige Probe. Bestsellerautorin Katja Brandis lässt die Herzen aller „Woodwalkers“- und „Game of Thrones“-Fans höher schlagen. Endlich erscheint Band 2 des mitreißenden Fantasy-Meisterwerks. Traumhafte Landschaften, magische Figuren: Sturmbögen, Geysire, Vulkane, Silberfalken, Eisdrachen, Elfen und Trolle machen den Mythos Island lebendig. Magisch, politisch, hoch romantisch: Isslar ist alles, von dem Jugendliche lesen wollen. Im Mittelpunkt des zweiten Bandes stehen Andrik und ein filmreifer Kampf voll großer Gefühle. Katja Brandis, Jahrgang 1970, begann schon als Kind zu schreiben, oft Geschichten, die in fernen Welten spielten. Sie studierte Amerikanistik und Anglistik und arbeitete danach als Journalistin (unter anderem für die Süddeutsche Zeitung) und als Verlagslektorin, bis sie ihren Traum wahrmachen und sich als freie Autorin selbständig machen konnte. Bekannt ist sie für ihre All-Age-Romane wie „Khyona“ „Ruf der Tiefe“, „Vulkanjäger“, „White Zone“ und „Floaters – Im Sog des Meeres“ sowie Woodwalkers und Seawalkers, ihre Fantasy-Reihen ab 10 Jahren, die regelmäßig auf der SPIEGEL-Bestsellerliste zu finden ist. Katja Brandis lebt mit Mann, Sohn und drei Katzen in der Nähe von München. Moderation: Katharina Glück

I didn't watch the Game of Thrones finale, but I pretended I did and the lessons I learned as a result were incredible! What if we decided to just listen to someone and validate them instead of interjecting our opinions? Turns out, it makes for a very cool experience. Here's what happened to me... The day after the season finale of Game of Thrones May 20, 2019 I wore my Mother of Dragons shirt. I bought the shirt at Target and bought it for a Game of Throne party I went to for the season premiere. Our friends are super fans and threw the most amazing costume theme party for the premiere. We dressed Jade as a baby dragon at the party so it was only fitting for me to be the Mother of Dragons. That all said, we don’t watch Game of Thrones. I’ve seen 3 episodes total including the season premiere.  Wearing the shirt meant people instantly wanted to talk to me about the season finale, which I didn’t see. At Stroller Strides that morning I told the other moms who asked what I thought that I just had the shirt but didn’t watch the show. We all agree that I should come up with a canned response for people who ask me about it, something like, “I just can’t believe it’s over.” Next I went to our Kombucha On Tap office where immediately an employee asked me what I thought about the ending. Again I laughed saying I didn’t know and then he helped me come up with a few more canned responses for when strangers asked me.  Now I was prepared! That afternoon I went to the YMCA and was working on my laptop, earbuds in and all and a woman came running up to me and said, “as the mother of dragons can you BELIEVE what they did to your character?!” I looked up and said, “I just can’t believe it’s over!” In my head, I thought oh no...I don’t even know what happened to my character but I decided this was a great time to listen. She was disappointed by the ending and had three alternative endings she wished they had written instead. I simply listened, nodded and agreed with each one. She was so excited and it felt great to just give her that space to be excited. Normally I would be interjecting my opinions and perhaps even dominating the conversation. But without an opinion or any knowledge, I simply agreed and listened. At first I was scared she would call me out or think it was a dud of a conversation since I didn’t add anything to it. But instead, it was awesome. She felt validated, heard and empowered.  After that I went to the grocery store where an employee said he loved my shirt and then immediately asked, “did you watch the finale?” I smiled and said, “yes!” A lie, which I hate doing, but this had turned into a social experiment for me. He got a huge smile and said, “bummer about your character! What did you think of the ending?” To which i stated, “I just can’t believe it’s over.” He replied, “good answer” validating me and then I asked him what he thought. He went into his theories and opinions to which I nodded and agreed to it all. It was another upbeat positive conversation even though I wasn’t adding anything to it besides validation. Regardless, I left feeling happy and he continued at work feeling happy.  So rarely in life do we actually just listen and validate without giving our commentary. What a cool lesson I got to learn, all because of a shirt.  About the host: Deanne Goodman is a journalist, mom, speaker and co-founder of Kombucha On Tap.

Österreich beschäftigt sich weiterhin mit den Folgen der Ibiza-Affäre. Kanzler Sebastian Kurz von der ÖVP kündigte am Wochenende die Regierungskoalition mit der FPÖ auf, nachdem belastendes Videomaterial über seinen Vizekanzler Heinz-Christian Strache öffentlich wurde. Belastet das den Wahlkampf von Rechtspopulisten in anderen Ländern? Das bespricht Ole Pflüger mit Ulrich Ladurner, dem Brüssel-Korrespondenten der ZEIT. Noch vier Tage läuft das Filmfestival in Cannes. Eine gute Zeit für eine Zwischenbilanz. Hat Pedro Almodóvars "Leid und Herrlichkeit" den inoffiziellen Titel des Wettbewerbsfavoriten verdient? Und wie erzählt Regisseurin Mati Diop aus afrikanischer Perspektive in "Atlantiques" von Geflüchteten auf dem Weg nach Europa? Wenke Husmann aus der Kulturredaktion lobt außerdem den Eröffnungsfilm "The Dead Don't Die" – eine Zombiekomödie von Jim Jarmusch. Und sonst so? Mehr als eine Million "Game of Thrones"-Fans fordern ein Remake der letzten Staffel. Mitarbeit: Anne Schwedt, Milan Ziebula und Alexander Eydlin Sie erreichen uns per Mail an wasjetzt@zeit.de.

Doug, Jen, Victoria and Cara start things off right for Burger King fans - the company started testing out a new delivery method in Mexico city and now they're planning to bring it to the US ... drivers stuck on the road in the middle of traffic jams will soon be able to order Whopper meals and have them delivered...via motorcycle. Definitely nothing that could go wrong there. Ikea is releasing new plant based Swedish meatballs, Boeing is in DEEP trouble this week after audio was released of angry pilots confronting them with concerns about their system failures BEFORE the second Boeing plane crash, and a Southwest Airlines passenger is making a lot of noise after he was kicked off one of their planes for making a completely inoffensive joke. We also celebrate National Mimosa Day, James Corden takes on a troll who threatened his family, and Game of Thrones fans are NOT happy with this last season and hundreds of thousands of viewers have actually signed a petition to completely re-film the latest season.  Let us know what stories are getting you riled up this week on twitter @djvshow or at facebook.com/djvshow.

R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" epic fantasy novels. For the purposes of the fandom, we'll be referring to both of them interchangeably. _A Game of Thrones_ , the first volume in the series, was written in 1991 and published in 1996. Since then, four other volumes have been released, with a total of seven volumes planned. The series follows the adventures of a wide cast of different characters of the continents of Westeros and Essos. Though there are many different perspectives, the books and TV show follow three main plot lines: an epic war among several families for control of Westeros; the rising threat of the supernatural _Others_ to the north; and "the ambition of Daenerys Targaryen, the deposed king's exiled daughter, to assume the Iron Throne" ([Wikipedia - A Song of Ice and Fire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Song_of_Ice_and_Fire)). The books have sold over 60 million copies worldwide, has been translated into 47 different languages, have been adapted into comics, card games, board games, and video games (and the television show, of course). The television show (which first aired in 2011) has won 38 Emmies, is the most pirated TV series every year since 2012, and an unnamed episode was downloaded over 4 million times (roughly equal to broadcast viewers) ([Wikipedia - Game of Thrones](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_Thrones#Copyright_infringement)). **Fandom Origins:** While no doubt fans of the series existed when the books were initially being released, fandom started buzzing closer to the announcement of the cast of the TV show (early 2011). **Most Active:** The fandom is most active [now](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=%2Fm%2F0524b41).

More than any other fandom we've observed to date, the data is highly periodic (i.e. it spikes whenever a new season is released) and each spike, for the most part, is higher than the last. If you look at the chart, there is a very clear upward trend in interest. **Size of Fandom:** Using some of the data we have on hand, it is possible to get a few different estimates: - 60 million (assuming every book purchase is a new fan) - 12 million (assuming every fan buys a full set of books) - Almost 9 million views (based on [the season 6 finale](http://variety.com/2016/tv/ratings/game-of-thrones-ratings-season-6-finale-record-1201805035/)) - Over 8 million (assuming all broadcast views and pirated episode downloads per episode are unique) - Over 4 million (assuming episode downloads or broadcast view as a rough proxy) Regardless of how you estimate, there are
