When you can't beat the odds, change the game.

In this sequel to the #1 New York Times bestseller, Six of Crows, Kaz and his crew face ever-more-harrowing challenges as Ketterdam comes under attack by old rivals and new enemies alike, setting the stage for a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of magic in the Grisha world.

Book One in The Grisha Trilogy

Surrounded by enemies, the once-great nation of Ravka has been torn in two by the Shadow Fold, a swath of near impenetrable darkness crawling with monsters who feast on human flesh. Now its fate may rest on the shoulders of one lonely refugee.

Alina Starkov has never been good at anything. But when her regiment is attacked on the Fold and her best friend is brutally injured, Alina reveals a dormant power that saves his life—a power that could be the key to setting her war-ravaged country free. Wrenched from everything she knows, Alina is whisked away to the royal court to be trained as a member of the Grisha, the magical elite led by the mysterious Darkling.
