Welcome to the world of the Grisha.

Kaz Brekker and his crew of deadly outcasts have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn't think they'd survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they're right back to fighting for their lives.

Double-crossed and badly weakened, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz's cunning and test the team's fragile loyalties.

A war will be waged on the city's dark and twisting streets - a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of the Grisha world.

As gripping, sweeping and memorable as the Grisha trilogy - SHADOW AND BONE, SIEGE AND STORM and RUIN AND RISING - this novel is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Laini Taylor, Kristin Cashore and GAME OF THRONES.

Winner of the Teen Choice Book Award for Book of the Year.

Rating: 4.5 stars

It was great to be back on a new job with Kaz and the rest of the gang. As always, I was amazed by their plans and all the moving parts required to make them work. The romance lover in me was quite pleased by some of the ooey, gooey stuff going on in-between the chaos and violence. But Bardugo really broke my heart. I actually sobbed and I am shedding a few tears right now. I forgave her a little after reading the second to last chapter. That was quite a beautiful thing she made happen there.
