Overview
Return to the Grishaverse with the King of Scars Duology, a two-book paperback collection by Leigh Bardugo following King Nikolai Lantsov as he battles a demon within and a nation on the brink of war. Featuring King of Scars and Rule of Wolves, this set continues the story beyond the Shadow and Bone trilogy and Six of Crows duology, bringing back fan-favorite characters Zoya Nazyalensky and Nina Zenik. Packed with political intrigue, sharp wit, and high-stakes magic, this Young Adult fantasy collection is a must-have for Grishaverse fans and a great gift for teen and adult readers alike.
About the Books
The King of Scars Duology picks up after the events of the Six of Crows books, centering on Nikolai Lantsov, the young king who has rebuilt Ravka from the ashes of war. In King of Scars, Nikolai must confront a dangerous secret that could unravel his rule and jeopardize the nation he has fought so hard to protect, all while enemies gather at his borders. He turns to unlikely allies, including a legendary Grisha and a wandering monk, to search for a way to save both his kingdom and himself. The story deepens the political stakes of the Grishaverse while giving readers an intimate look at the cost of leadership.
Rule of Wolves raises the tension further as Fjerda's army prepares a full invasion of Ravka. Nikolai must draw on every resource, including the volatile power growing inside him, to protect his people. Zoya Nazyalensky, the fierce Grisha general known as the Stormwitch, is forced to embrace her full strength no matter the personal cost, while Nina Zenik works undercover in enemy territory, risking her life to strike a blow for freedom. Together, the two books deliver a sweeping conclusion to Nikolai's arc, full of Bardugo's trademark blend of political maneuvering, morally complex characters, and richly imagined magic. Longtime readers of the Grishaverse will find a satisfying culmination of storylines first introduced in earlier series, while new readers can enjoy an immersive fantasy world built on themes of power, sacrifice, and resilience.
