Siege and Storm

“Siege and Storm,” the second installment in Leigh Bardugo's Grishaverse, mirrors some of the first book's pacing problems but showcases significant growth in Bardugo's writing. This sequel brings a deeper, more compelling narrative and a clearer evolution in character development. It's refreshing to witness Bardugo's maturation as an author, as she crafts a world that feels more robust and detailed. While not without its flaws, “Siege and Storm” marks a promising step forward, suggesting an upward trajectory for the series' concluding chapters.
