I found The Lives of Saints to be a very quick and enjoyable read. I am happy to have had the opportunity to dive even further into the Grishaverse, and learn more about it through the stories of various Saints that the people of that fantasy world revere.
I also really love all the beautiful illustrations. The cover as well as the format gave me an old book vibe, if that makes sense, and I liked that aspect.
Sadly, this book didn't leave as much of a mark on me as The Language of Thorns did. Moreover, I found the writing to be much drier and a bit repetitive at times.
Overall, I do recommend this book if you would like to explore more of the Grishaverse.
CW: violence, death.
