How to Nail an Adaptation: Shadow and Bone
If the unnamed HBO abomination taught me anything it’s that I am a character person at least with the stories I connect whole heartedly to so for me a great adaptation has to get the character right.
Not the look of the character either because everyone will see that differently but the spirit and oh my gosh Shadow and Bone did such a good job with that. It was beautiful.
The damned show even made me like Mal.
Did She Justify It? Rule of Wolves
So at the end of King of Scars (the first book in this duology) Leigh Bardugo made a decision that left me very, very torn and I thought I’d have to read the second in order to see if she justifies it.
And well it’s read.
And I’m still torn.

King of Scars Ending Still Bugs Me
So I put off writing anything about this book because of the ending but now with the sequel (Rules of Wolves) coming out Tuesday I think I can talk about that ending and the fact that while I loved the whole book…

SPOILERS BELOW OBVIOUSLY!
Only Nikolai Could Live Up to His Hype: King of Scars
King of Scars
By: Leigh Bardugo
Grade: A
King of Scars was in my top three most anticipated books of 2019 and it didn’t let me down! Though that ending…
Just a warning there are spoilers in here for the Shadow and Bone trilogy and for Six of Crows (especially in terms of fatalities in those books.) So if you were planning on reading them and don’t want to be spoiled don’t read this.
I also think you probably should read, at least the Shadow and Bone books, if you want to to get the full feeling of King of Scars.
