Shadow and Bone 2. Siege and Storm

After narrowly escaping the Darkling at the end of „Shadow and Bone“, Alina and Mal are on the run. Before long, their cover is blown, however, and Alina has to really commit to taking him down once and for all. „Siege and Storm“ is a worthy sequel, but I still got the feeling that its main focus is on setting up the big finale. I did enjoy how much Alina changes over the course of this book, even though I don’t necessarily like those changes nor her actions all the time. I think it’s interesting to see how she deals with what she’s done, justifies the things she is going to do and how much power the Darkling still holds over her. There are also a few new characters introduced in this installment, whom I’d love to read more about in the finale, Nikolai being just one of them. I recommend the „Shadow and Bone“ trilogy to every fan of the genre, teens as well as adults. ...weiterlesen
