I love the feeling of anticipation when starting a book I know I’ll enjoy, and the wait was worth it. Bardugo expands the world she created in Ninth House and the characters, especially Alex, develop naturally in response to Darlington’s absence. Reading about Alex’s time at Yale drummed up such an ache for the learning that I missed from my time at university, and Hell Bent’s magic was just as perverse and compelling as before.
