Hello everyone!!
Today we are reviewing Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo which is the second book in her Six of Crows duology that was published in 2016 by Henry Holt and Company.
We follow again Kaz Brekker and his crew of deadly outcasts who have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn't think they'd survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they're right back to fighting for their lives.
Double-crossed and badly weakened, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz's cunning and test the team's fragile loyalties.
A war will be waged on the city's dark and twisting streets - a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of the Grisha world.
The second book in the Six of Crows duology was as good as the first one.
Full of action, with the same incredible characters and another impossible heist/mission again.
In this book we learn more about our characters' past and we get to see some of the Shadow and Bone characters as well. In Crooked Kingdom it took me a little longer to get into the story but when I did I was hooked. There are twists and turns that I wasn't expecting.
I liked that the ending was bittersweet and I loved Kaz and Inej's scene.
Highly recommend it if you haven't read it already.
Rating: 5 Stars
See you in the next post and don't forget to keep reading!!!
