I liked this one even better than Six of Crows. I was hooked from the beginning, the middle was action-packed, and the ending was satisfying without giving everything away. Not in an “up for interpretation” sense, but more like a “leaving things open for potential future stories” sense. Also great for fanfiction. I love the characters in this duology and the nods to other Grishaverse characters.
