This was a fun read as someone who enjoys the Grishaverse and wanted more background on the world building. It’s interesting to read about different saints, both those you have seen/learned about in the novels as well as others that are new to the reader. Not necessary by any means, but a beautiful collection of short stories for the Grishaverse fan.

Like stories of saints in the Christian faith, the people in these stories meet a variety of ends. Some of them graphic and violent.

A collection of short stories.  I liked learning the history of the universe. Getting insight into the saints, the places and characters of grishaverse.
