Shadow and Bone
readers are taken into a whole new world, surrounded by enemies, the
once-great nation of Ravka has been torn in two by the Shadow Fold, a
near impenetrable darkness crawling with monsters who feast on human
flesh. Now its fate may rest on the shoulders of one lonely refugee. Our
main character, 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. This power
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.
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. I enjoyed the similarities to Game of Thrones and I really liked the strength that Alina demonstrates; very inspiring.
