The wolves are circling and a young king will face his greatest challenge in the explosive finale of the instant #1 New York Times-bestselling King of Scars Duology.
Leigh Bardugo's grishaverse is a fun universe to dip back into, with some really memorable characters. While most of the story lines from the previous books are resolved are there as well seeds for new stories as well.
What a lovely book and brilliant end to the duology. Obviously would like to read more stories set in this universe, but I think it was a very fair ending. Some parts of the book felt rushed—whereas parts of the first one felt very slow—but overall I very much enjoyed it. Some nice twists which could have easily been predicted but all in all very entertaining.
