--------------------
The hotly-anticipated sequel to SIX OF CROWS, this is Game of Thrones meets Ocean's Eleven in a fantasy epic from the number 1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of SHADOW AND BONE, SIEGE AND STORM and RUIN AND RISING, Leigh Bardugo.

Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn't think they'd survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they're right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and left crippled by the kidnapping of a valuable team member, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz's cunning and test the team's fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city's dark and twisting streets―a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of magic in the Grisha world.

This is a thrilling and satisfying sequel to the #1 New York Times-bestselling Six of Crows.

"...So what do you think fans are most excited about in "Crooked Kingdom"? Is there anything you want to tease them or ease their minds with?
Oh, I don't want to ever ease their minds, I want them to suffer as much as humanly possible. I think... I mean all I can say is that there will be quite a bit of progress and forward momentum in the number of the relationships in the book. I know there are a lot of readers who are looking forward to that and beyond that... Let's just say that some of the bad people get worse and some of the good people get worse, and I try to put them through their paces. This is not a trilogy, it's a two-book series, and that meant that a lot had to happen in this second book. That means that not everybody's going to make it out either. So..." --LA Times Q&A Author Leigh Bardugo reveals plot details and the cover to 'Crooked Kingdom'
