Răzbunarea ciorilor (al doilea volum din seria Banda celor șase ciori)
#1 New York Times Bestseller # 1 USA Today Bestseller De la autoarea celebrei trilogii Grisha Urmarea volumului Banda celor şase ciori (nominalizat la Carnegie Medal 2017) este un amestec de Urzeala tronurilor și Ocean’s Eleven Kaz Brekker şi echipa lui tocmai au dat o lovitură atât de îndrăzneață, încât nici ei nu credeau că vor scăpa teferi. Dar în loc să pună mâna pe o recompensă consistentă, sunt nevoiţi să lupte din nou pentru vieţile lor. Înșelată şi slăbită de răpirea unui membru important, echipa a rămas fără resurse, fără aliaţi şi fără speranţă. În timp ce în Ketterdam se adună forţe puternice din întreaga lume, dornice să smulgă secretele periculosului drog numit jurda parem, rivali vechi şi duşmani noi pun la încercare iscusinţa lui Kaz şi loialităţile fragile din cadrul echipei. Pe străzile întunecate şi întortocheate ale oraşului se va da un război, o luptă pentru răzbunare şi ispăşire care va decide soarta lumii Grisha. "Un roman sumbru şi violent – una dintre scene înfățișează o paradă de adolescenţi cu revolvere, puşti, pistoale, explozibili şi grenade luminoase –, dar de o autenticitate captivantă." - Kirkus Reviews "Excelent scris... Bardugo se depăşeşte pe sine." – Booklist "Romanul are toate ingredientele necesare ca să ţină cititorii cu sufletul la gură: un şef de bandă viclean, cu un plan pentru fiecare împrejurare, şanse de reuşită aproape nule, o echipă distractivă de inadaptaţi cu talente diverse, o intrigă cu răsturnări de situaţii şi un deznodământ plin de suspans." - Publishers Weeklyu200b

In Ketterdam is alles te koop, als je maar bereid bent om te betalen. Niemand weet dat beter dan crimineel wonderkind Kaz Brekker. En dan krijgt hij een opdracht aangeboden die weliswaar levensgevaarlijk is, maar hem meer geld oplevert dan hij ooit had kunnen dromen. Hij kan het alleen niet in zijn eentje... Kaz vertrekt uiteindelijk met een team dat op het eerste gezicht een bij elkaar geraapt zootje lijkt. Een op wraak beluste ex-gevangene, een gokverslaafde scherpschutter, een van huis weggelopen rijkeluiszoon, een spion die als bijnaam ''de Schim'' heeft en een Hartenwringer die haar magie vooral gebruikt om te overleven in de sloppenwijken. En dan is er Kaz zelf nog, een dief die gespecialiseerd is in onmogelijke ontsnappingen. Tijdens hun reis moeten ze dwars door vijandig Fjerda trekken en worden ze belaagd door een andere bende die op hetzelfde doel uit is, maar ook door Grisha die dankzij een mysterieuze drug een bijna onmogelijke, explosieve kracht hebben ontwikkeld. Oh, en tussendoor moeten ze ook proberen om elkaar niet te vermoorden. List en Leugens wisselt tussen de perspectieven van deze zes personages en neemt je mee naar de uithoeken van de Grisha-wereld: de sloppenwijken van Ketterdam en de ijzige vlaktes van Fjerda (waar Grisha worden opgejaagd en opgesloten!).

The capital has fallen. The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne. Now the nation''s fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army. Deep in an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives. Alina will have to forge new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the last of Morozova''s amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling''s secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is the one thing that stands between Ravka and destruction—and claiming it could cost Alina the very future she''s fighting for.
