See the Grishaverse come to life on screen with the Netflix series, Shadow and Bone. Just wait for the daring rogue Nikolai to join the fold in Season 2 — covering explosive events of both Siege and Storm and Ruin and Rising — streaming now!
All three books in Leigh Bardugo’s New York Times-bestselling Shadow and Bone Trilogy are now available together in a beautiful paperback boxed set.
Soldier. Summoner. Saint. Follow Alina Starkov through Shadow and Bone, Siege and Storm, and Ruin and Rising as she discovers her dormant powers and is swept up in a world of luxury and illusion. As Alina struggles to fit into her new life, a threat to the kingdom of Ravka grows―one that will test old alliances and challenge the very limits of magic, one that will forge a leader from a frightened girl.
Praise for The Shadow and Bone Trilogy:
“This is what fantasy is for.” ―Laini Taylor for The New York Times on Shadow and Bone
“Set in a fascinating, unique world rich with detail, Shadow and Bone was unlike anything I’ve ever read. Alina is a clever, sympathetic character I will gladly follow into the next installment―which can’t come soon enough!” ―Veronica Roth, New York Times–bestselling author of Divergent, on Shadow and Bone

Title: Absolutely Amazing
Review: Everything about this entire series was flawlessly arranged. The characters’ flow and their development were very well organized. The perfect balance of action, adventure, love, and fantasy. I am so sorry this has come to an end.This is so different from the series, and I am very grateful. It literally puts the series to shame because this is on FIRE!!!

Title: Lovely!
Review: I loved watching the series on Netflix, but I love the books even more. The emotions, tensions, complexity of characters and the chemistry brought forth on the pages are all sublime! I really loved the ending and how everything came together. Wish I could continue reading about the life of Alina and Mal!

Title: This was the most enjoyment Iâve gotten out of reading in a LONG time.
Review: Just finished this trilogy and I just have to say⦠this was the most enjoyment Iâve gotten out of reading in a LONG time. The characters were amazing, and I really found myself rooting for the bad guy⦠even though I knew, it couldnât end well for him.Because the author was drawing from a lot of different cultures and several of the characters are mixed, I had a hard time picturing it at firstâBUTâ thereâs a tv show! Also amazing by the way. Once I had some faces and images to go with the books I was hooked.The author is also writing the tv show, so their portrayal on screen is true to the characters but she does change some stuff! Itâs sort of like the book is her second draft and the tv series is the third draft, and I love both!There is a second series I havenât read yet, house of crows or something and that series is being tied into the tv show, Iâm not sure in what ways because I havenât read those yet.Over all, it has a similar feel and hook as the twilight series, though less teeny. Itâs not about high school students, thank goodness ð
. But it has an interesting take on a familiar subject (magic vs vampires), fantastic characters you want to know more about and care how things work out for, and really nice romantic tension that feels spicy-without getting raunchy or over the top. Also, the plot was not too predictable but played out in a way that felt like a good pay off in the end.Being in a book club and a writing club, I spend a lot of time picking apart writing/books⦠these were amazing! Itâs such a rare treat to say that⦠but they were really, really good. Wish I could high five this author and the whole team of people that helped her make these books shine the way they do. ð¤

Title: Not as good as Six of Crows
Review: I read Six of Crows before Shadow and Bone so I expected the series to be similar. While I did enjoy Shadow and Bone, it doesnât compare to Six of Crows. Six of Crows had an intricate storyline and complex characters that made the book engaging and exciting. Shadow and Bone had a lot of potential but it fell flat because of a few things.The characterization was often frustrating and made no sense. Alina would get angry over something major and then just be over it the next moment. The villain was unoriginal. The minor characters like Zoya and Nikolai had more personality than Alina, Mal, or the Darkling. Character storylines had potential but they weren’t explored to their full extent. For example, we are constantly told that Genya is being taken advantage of by the King but we don’t get to see it and we don’t see the affect it had on her until the last book. I feel as though that is something that would consistently affect that character, but we don’t see it. These books are the epitome of telling and not showing in terms of character’s backgrounds, personalities, and storylines.The romance was poorly written. Mal and Alina had very little chemistry and almost no pretense to be in relationship aside from the fact that they grew up together. I still donât know why they like each other. The jealous and overprotective boyfriend trope is grossly overused and boring. The fact that they were undeveloped as characters also prevented me from liking them together, which ultimately took away from the plot.The plot was often rushed and illogical. e.g. Baghra a minor character who was unsympathetic and rude to Alina helped her out of no where. Nikolai was a prince but was allowed to basically do whatever he wanted for seven years without anyone wondering where he was or what he was doing. New major plot points came out of no where, as if the author wasnât quite sure where she was going with the story.Regardless of its faults it is an interesting series to read and I would recommend it. I think I compared it to Six of Crows as I read, so I focused on that rather than the series on its own. It has an original storyline, amazing world building, a great writing style, and is an easy read to get through. If you can get past some of the issues with it, youâll be sure to enjoy it.
