And that, perhaps, is why it is so special. It always leaves me aching, foaming at the mouth, for more: right now. And it always always always leaves me desperate for more.

It has the most exquisitely constructed world, the best-written characters, the most amazing writing and storyline. Maybe it is different because it is just magic. But there are also many more that I can't even explain. There are many small reasons that all come together to create the awesomeness. I wrote a piece here gushing about why the Grisha series is so different and so special. There is nothing I don't love about the world in which the Grisha trilogy is set and I cannot wait until next year to see how this series is going to conclude. I felt the sun warm the pages whenever Alina summoned and I felt the fear when The Darkling was around. I was away on the ships and wandering through Ravka with Alina and Mal, I was on the receiving end of his kisses and his annoyances. My heart! This book is truly epic, filled with oodles of imagination and entertainment.


It had everything I loved about the first book-the world-building, the incredible characters, the immersive writing-and more. Siege and Storm is a fantastic sequel to last year's debut SHADOW & BONE. I for one cannot wait for the third and final book. This book will have you laughing one minute and an emotional wreck the next, as Alina's powers are pushed to the limit and her relationships are tested to breaking point. Siege and Storm carries on the fantastic plot which was so intricately carved in book one, and the writing continues to be clever, funny and heartbreaking all at the same time. Leigh is a writer of the best kind because she loves her characters and the world they live in and makes a reader jealous that they can't visit it. The Language of Thorns: Midnight Tales and Dangerous Magic (previously published as The Grisha Trilogy) To win this fight, she must seize a legend's power - but claiming the firebird may be her ruin. Now her hopes lie with the magic of a long-vanished ancient creature and the chance that an outlaw prince still survives.Īs her allies and enemies race toward war, only Alina stands between her country and a rising tide of darkness that could destroy the world. The Darkling rules from his shadow throne while a weakened Alina Starkov recovers from their battle under the dubious protection of the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Saint.The nation's fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army. Now with a stunning new cover and exclusive bonus material: The Demon in the Wood (a Darkling prequel story) and a Q&A with Leigh Bardugo.

Perfect for fans of Laini Taylor and Sarah J. Enter the Grishaverse with book three of the Shadow and Bone Trilogy by number one New York Times-bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.
