A review by robinhood2000
Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo

4.0

I would say the previous book was a lot better, I devoured that and while this still was good it was not as captivating. I quickly realised that there were three amplifiers, (the covers) and that part was exciting but overall the characters felt like they were just waiting, the battle wasn’t grand because they were sold out and at the end of it I felt slightly disappointed. I wanted more realisations and a chase for an important goal, I wanted more scenes with Alina and the Darkling actually talking about their connection. Mostly the characters were just lost it felt like. I really loved the new characters like Nikolai though.

Overall though- the world building is absolutely stunning. I will continue reading Ruin and rising ASAP.
