The Plot
I can’t really talk much about this plot, not without giving anything away. Those moments that make you gasp, and cause your heart to flutter with nerves or love, is what makes the whole thing so spectacular.
I can say that you will enjoy every second and love every character. (Particularly Kaz Brekker since he is so fascinating!) You will hope with them, battle with them, and hurt with them… Maybe you will wonder how a story with so much depth makes you love even those you are to hate. Could end in a way that can even remotely be happy.
Read the prequels first
It was so good I was full of worry that it would be a one-off, and there was no way any of the sequels would measure up.
Still, the worry didn’t prevent me from getting my hands on a copy of the other books in the series so I can dig deeper into this magical world as fast as I could. And devouring it ravenously, completely ecstatic when I finished that second book.
I’ve never read a series by an author that completely captivated me the way the Crooked Kingdom: A Sequel to Six of Crows has. Please, hurry out and pick it up. If you don’t, you are losing out on something EPIC.
Characters
Kaz Brekker – is a notorious thief and a master lock pick. He has a knack of doing just about anything if the price is right. The nickname Dirty hands suit him well with his black leather gloves and cane with a crow’s head. He also occurs to be the leader of the gang known as The Dregs.
Inej Ghafa – known as the Wraith- is also as Suli acrobat who sneaks around very well. She was a slave working in the “Menagerie” brothel until Kaz freed her by buying her contract.
Wylan Van Eck – He is a demolition expert and merchant’s son, a hostage of Kaz. He has severe dyslexia that makes it impossible for him to read.
