   Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken.  N.W.Moors | Mar 30, 2021 |  Spoilers. I love the world she has created. I slipped right back into it with great pleasure. I like the challenges she gives to her characters. The storylines and prose are mostly fresh. She has a great sense of pacing and as alway the dialogue zings. The world building is incomparable. My only small qualms are that the Nina storyline felt very separate from the Nikolai/Zoya storyline, she name- and event-dropped from the other books a little too much, and I prefer for vanquished enemies not to rise again. (  ) erikasolberg770 | Mar 26, 2021 | I love the character of this book, and how it fits into the Gishaverse. The story follows three different groups on three individual, but interconnected, adventures. Nikolai and Zoya are my favorite pair in this book. The secrets between the two of them make it a complicated game of wit and banter in every conversation. I hope everything is resolved in the next book, although there is a lot to resolve. This book is best enjoyed when read after the other two series in the Gishaverse. Some of the context is necessary for readers, since it wouldn't be possible for everything to be explained and also keep this story coherent. I liked this better as a physical book than as an e-book. It's fast-paced and the character names are different than most YA novels. (  ) Emma.June.Lyon | Feb 23, 2021 | Zoya is the real star of this show and Nikolai is mostly just doing the best he can. His struggles really made me like him as a character whereas I couldn't care what happened to him either way before. The story (while it has plenty of plot) is more character driven than plot driven this time around. A lot of people are complaining about this book not being accessible for those new to the Grishaverse, but my mom read this along with me without reading the Grisha series (though she read Six of Crows) and had no issue. If you're not great on context clues, maybe go back and start the others first. ( ) crowsb4bros | Oct 2, 2020 | All I can say right.........OMG he's back.. I am shocked.

*The Grishaverse will be coming to Netflix soon with Shadow and Bone, an original series!* The much-anticipated first book in a brand-new duology by New York Times bestselling author, Leigh Bardugo. Face your demons . . . or feed them. Nikolai Lantsov has always had a gift for the impossible. No one knows what he endured in his country's bloody civil war - and he intends to keep it that way. Now, as enemies gather at his weakened borders, the young king must find a way to refill Ravka's coffers, forge new alliances, and stop a rising threat to the once-great Grisha Army. Yet with every day a dark magic within him grows stronger, threatening to destroy all he has built. With the help of a young monk and a legendary Grisha Squaller, Nikolai will journey to the places in Ravka where the deepest magic survives to vanquish the terrible legacy inside him. He will risk everything to save his country and himself. But some secrets aren't meant to stay buried--and some wounds aren't meant to heal. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

I thought Nina's story was the best, showcasing the talents learned in both previous series. Nikolai and Zoya's is a combined story as they attempt to destroy the monster inside Nikolai. I admit, I wasn't a huge fan of Zoya, but I'm definitely warming up to her. Isaac, the poor soldier, also has a part to play.
The pace is slower than Six of Crows, understandably as that was a heist story while this one is a bit more convoluted, closer to the Shadow and Bones series. It's a good read and fun to be back in the Grishaverse once more. (
