Alan Dunn Reihenfolge der Bücher

Alan Dunn ist einer der weltweit führenden Zuckerkünstler in der Tortendekoration. Er gibt Kurse und Workshops in der ganzen Welt. Sein neuestes Buch ist auch das erste, das in deutscher Sprache in den Handel kommt. Der Titel „Basics für Zuckerblumen“ passt ideal zum Inhalt, denn dieses Grundlagenwerk behandelt in verständlichen Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitungen die Herstellung naturgetreuer Blüten aus purem Zucker. Mit diesen wunderschönen Dekor-Elementen lassen sich Kuchen und Torten in vielbestaunte Kunstwerke verwandeln. Das Buch ist für Anfänger und Profis gleichermaßen geeignet. Es enthält insgesamt 25 unterschiedliche Projekte. Von der Anemone über Lilien und Rosen bis hin zur Orchidee sind alle Blumen dabei, die man üblicherweise auch beim Floristen um die Ecke vorfindet. Bevor es an die einzelnen Projekte geht, werden ausführlich die verwendeten Techniken, der Umgang mit dem Material und die benötigten Werkzeuge beschrieben. Zugleich vermittelt der Autor eine Fülle von Tipps und Kniffen, die seiner Erfahrung aus 27 Jahren Zuckerkunst entstammen. Um auch Anfängern auf Anhieb Erfolgserlebnisse zu bescheren, sind die Blumenprojekte in Schwierigkeitsgrade unterteilt. Damit ist die Möglichkeit gegeben, eine einfachere Blüte zu wählen und sich langsam in die Materie einzuarbeiten. Und wie bereits gesagt, die fertigen Zuckerblüten sind so täuschend echt, dass sie kaum noch von realen Blumen zu unterscheiden sind.

Security consultant, ex-cop and some-time detective Billy Oliphant is suffering from more than just Winter blues. His girlfriend is on a year's sabbatical in North America and his exwife is honeymooning with her new husband, leaving Billy with their sixteen-year-old daughter. Sly, Billy's friend, thinks that a weekend at the Forestcrag Moorland Holiday Village will cheer him up. But having battled the worsening weather to get to Forestcrag, they discover things are far from idyllic. The park manager believes someone is poisoning his staff. Billy is reluctant to get involved, but soon has little choice when the Village is snowed in and the body of Eric Salkeld is discovered. It looks like a straightforward suicide. Left nominally in charge of the investigation by police unable to get to the crime scene, Billy feels that the suicide looks a little too staged. Amongst the guests trapped at the Village, there could be a killer. And, if the police are right that a recently escaped prisoner is heading for Forestcrag, perhaps more than one...
