i love worldbuilding stuff, and this book was mainly centered around explaining more of the background of the grishaverse which was pretty interesting. the plot was pretty slow tho, and it was a little boring in the middle of the book. i liked seeing some of the characters' flaws become more prominent in this. last fight scene felt a bit rushed, i would've liked it to have lasted long. nice book overall.

also my copy came with a short story about genya, called 'the tailor', which was pretty good and quite emotional. i'm probably biased because genya's one of my favorites from the trilogy so far. but i liked it a little more than the whole of s&s.
