A Review


I absolutely loved this book! (I would recommend reading this after reading the Shadow and Bone trilogy just for the sake of avoiding spoilers.) The storyline is fascinating and unpredictable, and it is such a nice break from all of the books about the Chosen One saving the world (not that there's anything wrong with those books – I really like them too). The characters are so complex, diverse, and well-developed that it's hard not to love them all, and the writing style balances the tension of the plot so well with banter between the main cast. This was a book that I couldn't put down, and if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind fantasy heist novel with characters you can't help but root for, you won't be able to put it down either!
