Face your demons...or feed them.
Yet with every day a dark magic
within him grows stronger, threatening to destroy all he has built. With the
help of a young monk and a legendary Grisha general, Nikolai will journey to
the places in Ravka where the deepest magic survives to vanquish the terrible
legacy inside him. He will risk everything to save his country and himself. But
some secrets aren’t meant to stay buried―and some wounds aren’t meant to heal.
"Deadly clever political
intrigue, heart-stopping adventure, memorable characters, and several
understated, hinted-at romances (how will we wait?!) come together in one
glorious, Slavic-folklore infused package. Bardugo's star continues to
rise." ―Booklist, starred review
"The sharp dialogue and lovable
characters continue to enthrall and bewitch long past the final chapter. With
twists and revelations cleverly dispersed up until the very last page, this
novel is a must-have for any book shelf." ―School Library Journal,
