Enter the Grishaverse with book two of the Shadow and Bone Trilogy by number one New York Times-bestselling author Leigh Bardugo. Perfect for fans of Laini Taylor and Sarah J. Maas.

Now with a stunning new cover and exclusive bonus material: Nikolai Lantsov character art and a Q&A with Leigh Bardugo.

Soldier. Summoner. Saint. Alina Starkov's power has grown, but not without a price. She is the Sun Summoner - hunted across the True Sea, haunted by the lives she took on the Shadow Fold. But she and Mal can't outrun their enemies for long.

The Darkling is more determined than ever to claim Alina's magic and use it to take the Ravkan throne. With nowhere else to turn, Alina enlists the help of an infamous privateer and sets out to lead the Grisha army.

But as the truth of Alina's destiny unfolds, she slips deeper into the Darkling's deadly game of forbidden magic, and further away from her humanity. To save her country, Alina will have to choose between her power and the love she thought would always be her shelter. No victory can come without sacrifice - and only she can face the oncoming storm.

Initial thoughts: The only character I found remotely interesting was Sturmhond. The siblings added a little colour as well but everybody else, including Alina left me cold. Don't get me started on Mal either. He was the most excruciating one of the lot. He seemed to merely exist to drag everything down. The Darkling was nothing more than a phantom that posed a threat which while explosive didn't do much to convince me. I know he was dangerous and there were glimpses but the imminence of it only came across in theory. The plot prattled along with some form of destination but it was so anchored in the drama between Alina and Mal, it ultimately drove me to boredom.
