This is the most epic the Grishaverse has ever been, and finally we have war. So I was surprised to sort of struggle through this. I think I’m just hitting my fill of this series and ready for something else.

Terrifically clever and subversive fairy tales, written in an accessible style for a contemporary audience. They’re cruel, sometimes gory, and they bring a mallet to convention and power structures.
