See the Grishaverse come to life on screen with Shadow and Bone, now a Netflix original series.

Enter the Grishaverse with the instant #1 New York Times-bestseller King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo, the first book in the King of Scars Duology. [Bardugo] touches on religion, class, family, love -- all organically, all effortlessly, all cloaked in the weight of a post-war reckoning with the cost (literal and figurative) of surviving the events that shape both people and nations. --NPR The story exists at an intersection of past and future selves, and in the dawning understanding that what you most fear may be what you most need. --Washington Post Face your demons...or feed them. The dashing young king, 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, Nikolai 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 general, 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. An Imprint Book Read all the books in the Grishaverse!

This duology was advertised as one with Nikolai as the main character, but that wasn't really like it. Zoya was never really my favourite character, but she seems to be a Mary Sue most of the time.


Firru . a dat nota:

I came into this with low expectations so I was pleasantly surprised that this book turned out to be a pretty solid spin-off. The central characters (Nikolai, Zoya, Nina) are much more compelling to read compared to how they were portrayed in the previous books - that includes Nina, whose story arc is much stronger. Bardugo continues her pattern of endearing characters and sharp dialogue. My main critique is that the book feels disconnected between Nikolai and Zoya VS Nina; it reads like two separate stories that are mashed together in one book, and therefore isn't as cohesive. I do think both stories are solid on their own though and assume that there will be more overlap in the next book. Not rating this 5 stars because it's not as addictive and charming as the Six of Crows duology and I don't find myself still thinking about it after I've finished, but I still enjoyed reading this


Rubi Onisor a dat nota:

În această poveste, îl urmăm pe regele Nikolai încercând să-l salveze pe Ravka după incidentul întunecat și aceasta este și după Six of Crows. Six of Crows este această altă duologie care a venit după seria Grishaverse și aș recomanda cu căldură să citești duologia Six of Crows înainte de a o citi pe aceasta, deoarece aceasta conține un spoiler MAJOR Crooked Kingdom. Ca URIAȘĂ! Deci, dacă nu le-ați citit încă, vă rugăm să le faceți. Sunt, de departe, cărțile mele preferate de Leigh Bardugo. După cum am menționat anterior, Nikolai încearcă să-l aducă pe Ravka înapoi împreună după ce l-a învins pe darkling. Mai sunt niște inamici care se profilează în apropiere, încercând să-l omoare și să preia controlul asupra lui Ravka. De asemenea, există încă pericol pentru Grisha peste tot în afara Ravka, așa că vedem că asta are loc în această carte. Există mai multe POV-uri în această carte și toate par să curgă odată cu cartea. Nina este un soldat al lui Nikolai trimis să o salveze pe Grisha de peste tot, așa că putem să o vedem și în această carte. Și îți promit că este minunată ca întotdeauna! Atât de sexy. Zoya este un comandant neîntrerupt al lui Nikolai, la un moment dat, am simțit că amândoi se vor ucide unul pe celălalt. Scrisul lui Leigh este încă grozav. Trebuie să recunosc că trebuie să perfecționați limbile lor înainte de a o citi pe aceasta, deoarece a devenit confuză la un moment dat. Cu toate acestea, Bardugo reușește să te aducă prin povestea ei și simți tot ce simt personajele. Construirea lumii ei a fost în regulă, ar fi putut fi mai bine, dar simt că motivul pentru care nu s-a concentrat atât de mult pe a-și face lumea perfectă a fost că avea alte cinci cărți care să o susțină. Deci, dacă ai citit celelalte cărți ale ei înainte de aceasta, cel mai probabil te vei bucura cu adevărat de peisajul acesteia fără prea multe explicații.
