	Dragon/kolibri: Turms Kuolematon (The Etruscan) by Mika Waltari
		Let it be sufficient to say that Waltari writes on the corrupting power of material wealth, friendship and loyalty, the bitterness of love, and the cruelty of war better than any author I have ever read.
		Waltari's secret is in his style of writing: there are not excalmation marks, quatation marks or question marks in the entire book.
		Waltari's ability to catch entire life story of a man in a single book (another one of his enduring themes) has made the book relevant to me throughout my life as I have grown older.

	Decline & Fall \| TIME
		Mika Waltari, one of the most successful of practicing historical novelists (The Egyptian, The Wanderer), has taken this most crucial of all sieges as the subject of hs new book.
		It is a tribute to Waltari that he succeeds not only in blending the glamour and the disaster of the event but also works in the sort of love story on which, as every historical novelist knows, the fate both of book sales and besieged cities depends.
		With considerable skill, Novelist Waltari parallels the fall of Constantinople with the fall of gorgeous Anna.

	New International Law: Silence, Defence or Deliverance?
		The contribution of John Angel to the wretched defence of fifteenth-century Constantinople against the vastly superior power of the Turks and their weaponry is a practical ethical choice of a cynical but duty-conscious person.
		But, as the John Angel metaphor elaborately demonstrates, distinguishing fortress from plain tragedy, there existed the belief in the moral necessity of an optimistic defence.
		The fortress is defended solely with John Angel morals, which Kennedy urged Koskenniemi to take up in saying that his doctrinal agnosticism makes him liable to accusations of insincerity and uselessness.

		Mika Waltari was an internationally popular author in his day, but has been undeservedly forgotten since then.
		In The Dark Angel (1953), he tells the story of the fall of Constantinople in 1453 through the diary of his hero, John Angelos.
		The little yellow flowers will gleam out amid soot and blood, and the Guacchardi brothers in bloody armor will play merrily at ball with the heads of the enemy.

	Troll : a love story by Johanna Sinisalo \| LibraryThing
		Mikael, a successful freelance photographer affectionately and descriptively known as Angel, for he is very handsome with his head of fair hair, rescues an abandoned and frightened young troll from the attack of a group of loutish drunken teenagers.
		The story is told progressively by the various participants, but predominately Angel, and the narration is regularly interspersed with facts, information, and myths and tales, poetry and literature about trolls, sourced from various publications and the internet.
		It is truly a lovely story, the relationship that develops between Angel and Pessi is most heart warming as the young troll becomes submissive towards and fiercely and jealously protective of his newfound master.

		Mitt der Neunziger waren Waltari in aller Ohren, Ende der Neunziger wurde es ruhig um die unberechenbaren Finnen — und jetzt ist der Vierer um Kärtsy Hatakka mit “Rare Species“ wieder da.
		Schon der Opener One Day“ lässt zumindest halbwegs (so weit bei Waltari möglich) vermuten, wohin die Reise in der nächsten Zeit geht: das Fundament ist schwungvolle Rockmusik, die wahlweise mit Metal-Gitarren, Elektronik-Spielerein und extrem poppigen Passagen kombiniert wird.
		Aber wo ein Herr Bohlen beispielsweise ein Idee für 15 Songs verwendet, packen Waltari 15 Ideen in einen Song, rocken sich spacig-schräg durch ihre Songs und scheuen sich auch nicht, grauenvolle Dancebeats in die Songs zu packen.
