Rating: 4.5 / 5 stars
The Shadow and Bone is such an interesting book. The concept of the Grisha is completely diverse and nothing like I have ever read before. The Grisha are referred to some as witches, some as heroes. We'd like to call them as magicians or super humans but in this world they are Grishas, the masters of the small science. There are a lot of terms to get by and I treasure books like this; well-researched and engrossing. I felt like I was in a different world filled with the want to be one of the Grisha.
To reach the complete beauty of this book lies with your knowledge about Leigh's concept. If you know nothing, the better. It will completely take you by surprise.
Hands down, one of the best high-fantasy books out there.
