See the Grishaverse come to life on screen with Shadow and Bone, now a Netflix series.

Enter the Grishaverse with Book One of the Shadow and Bone Trilogy by the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom.

Soldier
. Summoner. Saint. Orphaned and expendable, Alina Starkov is a soldier who knows she may not survive her first trek across the Shadow Fold-a swath of unnatural darkness crawling with monsters. But when her regiment is attacked, Alina unleashes dormant magic not even she knew she possessed.

Now Alina will enter a lavish world of royalty and intrigue as she trains with the Grisha, her country's magical military elite-and falls under the spell of their notorious leader, the Darkling. He believes Alina can summon a force capable of destroying the Shadow Fold and reuniting their war-ravaged country, but only if she can master her untamed gift.

As the threat to the kingdom mounts and Alina unlocks the secrets of her past, she will make a dangerous discovery that could threaten all she loves and the very future of a nation.

Welcome to Ravka . . . a world of science and superstition where nothing is what it seems.

Firru . a dat nota:

I don't think words can properly describe how much I adored SHADOW & BONE. The characters, the world-building...it completely blew me away. There were moments when I was so stunned by the beauty and the brilliance that I had to stop reading. I never wanted this book to end. The book had incredibly good pace, and it was truly action riddles. The descriptions of opulence and grandeur, and likewise destruction and chaos were vivid, yet not excessively detailed. i felt like the book prodded and pushed your imagination but didn't try to override it, something i truly appreciated. i just have an inexplicable pull towards all things dark and evil, and then right there in the middle a beacon of light coming to the rescue. I love Mal, and will continue to do so for eternity, because every powerful and troubled heroine needs to be an emotional damsel every once in a while, and who better than the handsome boy who you've been secretly in love with for the past couple of years. I feel however, there is more to the darkling, and i hope we get to see the different side as the book progresses. Cant wait to read the next book!!!!


Alin Popescu a dat nota:

“Shadow and bone” este cartea perfectă pentru iubitorii de fantasy! De la prima pagină am adorat volumul. Într-adevăr,primul volum este unul care introduce cititorul in lumea Ravkăi și îi sunt prezentate personajele și darurile acestora,acțiunea intesificându-se spre final. Alina Starkov își începe aventura drept cartograf. In cadrul armatei Ravkăi,aceasta desena hărți. Când prietenul cel mai bun al Alinei,Mal,este obligat sa intre in Falie,o porțiune de pământ înconjurată de magie neagră și întuneric,porțiune plină de bestii și monștrii,Alina decide sa facă o fapta nesăbuită și sa meargă după prietenul ei. Ajunși in interiorul Faliei,aceștia sunt atacați,iar Alina descoperă cine este menit sa devină. Alina își descoperă puterea,aceea de a invoca lumina și faptul ca nu este doar o simpla cartografă,dar o invocatoare și o Grisha! Pe tot parcursul volumului,Alina învață lucruri despre lumea in care tocmai a fost aruncată și se maturizează,acceptând ca poate ea este singura speranța a locuitorilor din Ravka. Cartea poate sa fie văzută și ca un bildungsroman,urmărindu-se maturizarea și evoluția eroinei. Diferitele puteri ale oamenilor Grisha mi s-au părut unul dintre cele mai interesante și bine descrise concepte din carte. Autoarea reușește sa îmbine știința și magia,rezultatul fiind unul de excepție. Secrete,trădări și sentimente care pot sa distrugă lumea,”Shadow and bone” la îmbina pe toate,conturând o lume incredibila.

O carte foarte interesanta. Imi place foarte mult universul pe care Bardugo a construit, insa unele dintre caractere ma enerveaza putin.

Notă biografică

Leigh Bardugo was born in Jerusalem, raised in Los Angeles, and graduated from Yale University. She is fond of glamour, ghouls, and costuming, and gets to indulge all of these fancies in her other life as a makeup artist. She can occasionally be heard singing with her band, Captain Automatic.

Descriere

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.
Yet nothing in this lavish world is what it seems. With darkness looming and an entire kingdom depending on her untamed power, Alina will have to confront the secrets of the Grisha...and the secrets of her heart.
