Reviews

Leigh Bardugo never fails to make a whirlwind story full of tangible,flawed, and lovable characters. This book was entertaining and paid tribute to a lot of characters from her other series, which can be sweet at times. However, I think the plot relied too heavily on her other books at times. The book would have benefited from some of it's own conflicts rather than conflicts that have carried on from past books/charcters.

Que se puede decir ya de esta señora y sus libros del grishaverse; Que son genuinos? Que te dejan con la boca abierta? Enfin, me ha encantado.

He disfrutado de ambas historias, tanto la de Nina como la de Nikolai, aunque mi personaje favorito ha sido Nina sin duda, ya la amé en Seis de cuervos, pero es que este personaje es cada vez mejor y mejor.

No puedo decir mucho sin hacer spoiler, pero me han encantado las parejitas que se han ido formando.

Personajes nuevos como Hanne o Isaak se han ganado mi corazón, y los personajes antiguos me han seguido encantando ( ¿he mencionado ya que amo a Nina?).

Además este libro tiene un final que hace que te caigas de culo y te quedes en plan....que? Ahora necesito el segundo en mis manos :’).

No lo sentí a la altura de seis de cuervos, sin embargo es una gran mejora con respecto a sombra y hueso, lo recomiendo muchísimo enserio.

4.5 stars. Even before knowing about this series, I wanted more Nikolai and that’s exactly what we got. I’m excited to see where this duology will take me in the Grishaverse.

!!SPOILERS!!

I have mixed feelings on the Darkling returning. It may be because I have read and consumed too much media with one villain returning, but it felt like a Voldemort situation. Don’t get me wrong, the writing is amazing and it didn’t sour my taste for the story and I’m interested in where Bardugo is going to take this.
