Jenni Chapman I watched the Netflix series and it was really good. I've been thinking about getting the book and seeing if it's a series.

Jenna Gardner Yes. Shadow and Bone, along with the rest of its series is worth reading.

Skyeson I would recommend reading six of crows first to get a better view of the world, then read shadow and bone as a sort of prequel. But both series are really good

Julia That’s what a lot of people said! I checked out SOC, SAB, and her other non grishaverse fairytale book

Arielle Garza It’s pretty good but be prepared for a lot of information but once you get past the first book ( drags a bit in my opinion) the rest of the books both in the series and the other books in the universe

Avery_Monet It was good. It was kind of slow but worth the read. The world and the characters are great. I definitely liked the show better though!

Ashley No it is slow and not very well structured. I would suggest reading Six of Crows it can be read without ready shadow and bone. A Six man and woman crew, fast pace, amazing.

Emmanuella Gladman I really liked it but loved six of crows more. I also watched the show before reading the books so I knew which characters I wanted to learn more about.
