BOOK ONE of the Six of Crows Duology

Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price–and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can’t pull it off alone…

A convict with a thirst for revenge. A sharpshooter who can’t walk away from a wager. A runaway with a privileged past. A spy known as the Wraith. A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes.

Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist. Kaz’s crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction—if they don’t kill each other first. ([source][1])

Crooked Kingdom is the second book in the Six of Crows duology, and continues to follow the adventures of the characters we've grown so familiar with from the first book, essentially picking up where the first book left off and giving us the aftermath of the heist. A whole host of unanswered questions remain as to the fate of the crew, and Crooked Kingdom does not disappoint in giving us what we want from a sequel.

My love for this book and the duology as a collective can't be understated. It's so incredibly well written and rich in world building and character depth, which only seems to deepen and unravel with each chapter. The book, although a fairly long read, didn't fail to keep my attention and always kept me eager and excited for my next reading session when I could delve deeper into the world and learn more about …

What a rollercoaster ride of a duology. This has just been super-fun to read. The story picks up where Six of Crows ended, with the Crows being tricked out of their hard-earned money, and a member of the party being kidnapped. But they get their revenge, in a crazy heist from the mastermind of the cold Kaz Brekker.

It's action-packed fun, the Grisha universe is just cool, and I would read about these crazy kids anytime. A solid 4.5.

This was surprisingly good, despite my vow to stop reading YA fiction because I am a 50 year old woman, dammit.

Set in the Grishaverse, we come to fictional Amsterdam and its gangs. A fake-Chinese (Shu) agent has found a way to enhance the powers of Grisha greatly but also addicting them hardcore to the stuff. The Shu is now in the hands of the Fjerdan, an anti-Grisha witch-hunting nation in fake Scandinavia. The merchants of Ketterdam want to free him, and so hire the services of Kaz Brekker, a genius amongst gang criminals, to free the Shu for 30 million, from the super high security Ice Court. It's heist time! Kaz has a crew of six people, and off they go.

While I rolled my eyes plenty of times that these super-criminals were all 16 or 17 years old, I just changed their ages in my head, which made …

Review of 'Six of Crows' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

Six of Crows is by far now one of my favorite books. It is very fun and exciting, and the characters were very different from other current YA books out there. A major character, Kaz, walks with a limp, and the rest of the cast is very diverse. I wont spoil anything, but I really suggest reading this heist book.

Pros:
-Diverse Cast
-Great World Building
-Amazing Writing Style
-Characters Seem Real
-The story is exciting and fun.

Cons:
-Slightly cheesy romance(likely just me-I am not one for romance anyhow)

SMALL SPOILERS

-Slightly cheesy cliffhanger.
