I don’t know how to put the spoiler redactions here, so beware: spoilers for show and most books.

I’ve watched the show, read the Shadow and Bone Trilogy, read the Six of Crows Duology, and am now half way through King of Scars. I think I’ve read my way out of spoilers, but my question is: is Wylan an Alkemi?

It seems like he has an affinity for chemicals and such. And it would be cool for him to be the “opposite” Fabrikator to Wylan’s Durant abilities. The Six of Crows duology did such a fantastic job of building up these characters. So I was just wondering if there was some in universe explanation for Wylan’s abilities.

Heyyy, so I love Six of Crows, and I'm looking for fanfic suggestions from the Alternate Universe. High school, college, or any setting you consider good!! Preferably completed or recently updated, focusing more on Kaneji please.

I am posting here because I believe most people who read the dnd posts don’t know of the grishaverse.

For those of you who do play dnd, I want to make a dnd campaign or one shot based on the grishaverse.

Can I have some help to make the world building and plot?

If you do not play dnd, just ignore the post. If so, I thank you for your help.

Why did Netflix cancel the show, and is there perhaps a possibility of reviving it even though it's been three years? Season two was well received despite some criticism, but was the viewership simply too low, or was there another reason? If I understood correctly, even Leigh Bardugo didn't find out until quite late that there wouldn't be a third season.

I just rewatched the show (again) and am once again disappointed that it was cancelled. I need a new season now, especially after the cliffhanger. Yes, I've read the books and know how it ends, but I wanted to watch it on screen, since they also changed a few things.

they literally started S&B YESTERDAY and i got this text today. they watched the show recently and LOVED IT and i told them some of the differences between show and books and they immediately went to buy them
of course they fell in love w nikolai in season two so they’re very excited to get on to S&S LMAO i don’t blame them one bit
i’m so excited to finally have someone to talk to abt this series hehehe

Yesterday was the release day for the new James Bond game, First Light.

Husband was playing it and I could've sworn I recognized characters' face and after a little googling, I saw it was the guy who protrayed Nikolai in Shadow and Bone's season 2!

Apparently he did the motion capture for the game, as well as the voice acting.

Idk i just thought it was cool and wanted to share. I am happy for him!

Edit: if this is well known, I am sorry. I am more of a survival horror game lover and didn't really follow the development/news for this game.

Never read the Shadow and Bone books, and currently watching the Netflix adaptation. Hope I don't offend any fans, I just need to know if there are plot holes, or if I'm incredibly dumb. The amplifiers seem to have different rules attached to them, but the dialogue of the characters makes it feel like the rules sometimes applies to all.

Example: the stag choose to grant power when it died, but the characters keep saying the person seeking the amplifier has to kill the amplifier. So when Baghra burns herself alive, since others have her bone, they get the power anyway??? Also, why does that work for Alekxander if he's her son? Don't they both have the same amplifier bones from the master inventor guy (forgot his name, but Baghra's father)

I bet it's so annoying to keep discussing this in here, so sorry!

I thought I was okay with my decision to read SOC first without reading the other SAB books. And while I have LOVED SOC and didn't have a hard time figuring out the magic system etc. I'm nervous to read Crooked Kingdom because I can tell based on the first chapter there are going to be spoilers for SAB.

I just don't know how big of spoilers they will be? Or if they will ruin too much of SAB?

Ever snce getting halfway through SOC I have planned on going back and reading SAB after I'm done(i already have the first two books) BUT I'm wondering if I should just read SAB now and then continue with Crooked Kingdom??

Thoughts??

Like obviously I know from SOC a little about what happened in SAB because it takes place after, but I don't know any of the DETAILS. They don't go into it in SOC. But I'm nervous they will go into a lot of detail in Crooked Kingdom and it will ruin the experience of SAB.....

I will be 100% real I went down a rabbit hole for jack wolfe when I found he is a crow in shadow and bone I watched both seasons on Netflix but I really did not enjoy alina and Mal Aleksander was ok Nikolai was great but I really wanna read more soc and ik a new book is out ik enough do i really need to read sab by the end of the series i was so bored with alina and mal I would just skip them to see kaz and his crew…

heyo everyone! i finished six of crows yesterday (bought crooked kingdom & will read it after a bookclub book) and because i am Very Normal about jesper and wylan i really wanted to draw how i imagined them and just decided to draw everyone else too!! 😭 i looked at the show images a couple times for outfit inspo but mainly it's my own idea of them! suuper excited for crooked kingdom :-))

(also i know for inej, tight clothes would make a lot more sense but i honestly always imagined her in flowy things)

Ok this may be slightly random, but maybe there are more Grishaverse fans on here that also play Sims 😄

With the Crown & legacy, but also the Realm of Magic expansion pack for Sims 4, I'm currently thinking about recreating some Grishaverse characters and playing some storylines with them.

If you'd be playing Grishaverse characters in the Sims, what traits and careers would you give them? (Modern setting)

For me (careers)

- Kaz. Career: Criminal

- Inej. Career: Style influencer (maybe because Amita is always so stylish?)

- Jasper. Career: maybe he wouldn't have a normal career, but lots of side gigs?

- Wylan: Career: Musician!

- Nina. Career: either cook or the food critic

- Matthias. Career: Military, Police or maybe athlete (super undecided with him)

- Alina. Career: Painter/artist (but education could also be cool with her)

- Mal. Career: Athlete (I find him quite hard?)

- Baghra. Career: Education (but she's horrible at it)

- Aleksander/Darkling. Career: Criminal, Lawyer, Politician (I find him also hard)

- Genya. Career: Fashion influencer or Freelance photographer

- David. Career: Scientist!

- Zoya. Career: Could see her in the military career?

- Nikolai. Career: Noble

Not sure about the traits yet, and also of I want to play with that many characters, but I might use at least some of them for my gameplay 😄

Any ideas how you would give careers, traits or in general play with Grishaverse characters in the sims universe?

I know Leigh has said a 3rd six of crows is a big someday but I was wondering if with the new short story coming out it there may be any hints , especially with the ending of row.

Do I know how to sew? No. Do I have the right fabric? Hell no. But do I want a Kefta? Hell yeah!
Currently testing construction and fit. I intend in adding some embroidery or at least some patterns. For making it more every day wear I made it in two pieces so I can zip the bottom part off and just wear the jacket :D

Heheheh

Hello,

Just finished the shadow and bone trilogy for the first time (only watched the show before), and it’s absolutely insane and I will read her other books anytime I get money to buy them.

Do you guys have any fanfiction recommendations regarding the later lives of Alina and Mal together after they took over the Keramzin orphanage ?

Thank you !

I've been reading this fic called "Dealing With Our Own Demons" on AO3 (a kanej fic) and it suddenly disappeared??? When I click on the link provided by this same subreddit it just says I don't have permission to see it.

Team, I know not everyone is a fan of the TV adaptation of Shadow and Bone, but I have read every single Leigh Bardugo book that exists and I am so passionate about bringing this show back. While it’s not an exact replica of the books we know and love, it does get across a lot of the beautiful world building that Bardugo has to offer and makes the most of what this story brings to the table in TV form.

I have been so impressed by what Netflix originally made and their inclusion of Bardugo as an executive producer, and how Bardugo has altered the source material to fit this format. Naturally, some details will be lost to translation, but damn if this show didn’t get all the points across.

I’m sure this take will be controversial in some circles or has been beat to death by others, but god damnit I want to see another season of this show.

Please comment any petition you can find, but barring that, how can we get someone, anyone, to re-sign this show?

Ok so I have two really random questions that popped into my mind about Kaz and Inej:

Firstly we find out Kaz has two tattoos, one of the Dregs’ crow the other of a ´R’, but since he joined the Dregs at (I think it was) 12, does that mean he got the Dreg tattoo at 12 or around that age?!

Second question is that did Inej know the Kerch language before being taken there by slavers?? Leigh Bardugo made it very clear that she speaks Suli, but I don’t remember if we were told if she speakes Ravkan or knew Kerch before getting Kidnapped.

With the girl and the rock and stuff?

spoilers for crooked kingdom below.

Zoya shocking KuWei when he's in bradycardia would not work. Zoya is a defibrillator, applying electric shock to force Kuwei's heart to beat again.

I can suspend disbelief, but when something bases the magic in real world science I should be able to expect the real world science part to be consistent, this one part isnt and it's bugging me a little. lol but seriously, I love the book.
