Game of Thrones meets Ocean's Eleven in this brand-new book in the world of the Grisha by New York Times-bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.
Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price—and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can't pull it off alone...
A convict with a thirst for revenge.
A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager.
A runaway with a privileged past.
A spy known as the Wraith.
A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums.
A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes.
Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist. Kaz's crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction—if they don't kill each other first. (Goodreads)
Count me in!
Ok, technically it's the Ocean's Eleven part that drew me in,
because I'm still too chicken to watch GOT. HAHA!
But, GAH, these characters already sound AMAZING,
and we haven't even met them yet!!
Also, the cover is freaking gorgeous.
I can't wait to have this book in my hands.
It's going to be awesome!!

So so excited for this one. I loved the Grisha series so I would have read any book by Leigh Bardugo anyway, but this really does sound brilliant! I love books about heists. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick! I've seen this one around a lot!

I love the whole crow thing. I've never seen OCEAN'S ELEVEN and only watched an episode or two of GAME OF THRONES, so I don't know the comps very well, but I like the criminal concept this seems to have going on. And I still need to finish the Grisha trilogy!

Great pick! Leigh Bardugo's books sound so amazing but I've yet to read one! I'll definitely have to check this one out when it is released.

I haven't read her other books but this sounds good. I am wary when I read comparisons to other books though. Too many books are being compared to Game of Thrones if they are fantasy novels :)
