Hello everyone!!
Today we are reviewing Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo, the 2nd book in The Shadow and Bone trilogy which is a YA fantasy publishe in 2013 by Henry Holt and Company.
The second book in the Grishaverse world is as fascinating as the first one I liked how the story continues but to be honest I needed more Darkling in it. What can I say , he has become my favourite.
We are introduced to a new character in this book. A notorious privateer who will play a great role in the story. I liked that in this book the characters evolved , with the best example being Alina who became a strong woman with a power to save her country. Mal on the other hand continues to be of no interest to me. And then we come to Nikolai Lantsov who has the whole package. He is smart, funny, charming, cunning and a true fighter for his country.
Continuing with book three asap.
Rating: 4 Stars
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Darkness never dies.
Hunted across the True Sea, haunted by the lives she took on the Fold, Alina must try to make a life with Mal in an unfamiliar land, all while keeping her identity as the Sun Summoner a secret. But she can’t outrun her past or her destiny for long.
The Darkling has emerged from the Shadow Fold with a terrifying new power and a dangerous plan that will test the very boundaries of the natural world. With the help of a notorious privateer, Alina returns to the country she abandoned, determined to fight the forces gathering against Ravka. But as her power grows, Alina slips deeper into the Darkling’s game of forbidden magic, and farther away from Mal. Somehow, she will have to choose between her country, her power, and the love she always thought would guide her—or risk losing everything to the oncoming storm.
See you in the next post and don't forget to keep reading!!!
