SHORT REVIEW OF CHAPTER SAMPLER!
Oh my gosh, I'm so excited for this book to come out. I really do hope the ending will be fantastic and I can't wait for the Netflix adaptation to come out!!! The first three chapters to Rule of Wolves left me intrigued and wanting more from my favorite grishaverse characters. We'll just have to wait till March 30th to get to reading!

Wow. Wow wow wow! This sample has me even more amped up for the last book (and the Netflix series). I can’t wait to read the full thing and be amble to dive back into my favourite series once again.
Many thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for the chance to read this sampler before the book comes out!
Well this certainly whet my appetite. The hype is so real for this book's release. The sampler itself is short but it definitely sets up the tone for the rest of the book. Cannot wait to be back in this world with these characters!
This sets the tone on how the next book is going to be and I'm loving what I'm reading.
This super short teaser makes me want to read the book even more!
I was pleasantly surprised while reading this!! The sampler really shows how the author sets the tone for the rest of the book and it starts to build up the politics really well and showed us glimpses of what to expect from three different characters. I have a feeling that last quote from Nikolai is going to be the new grishaverse quote people would obsess over.
All in all, this was a good introduction to the book and something fans would truly love and appreciate, thank you to Imprint for providing me with the sampler in exchange for an honest review via NetGalley.
The sampler was too short but I loved it. I can't wait to read the whole book and back with these characters.
The main thing this sampler accomplished was making me even more excited for the full release of Rule of Wolves. I absolutely love Nikolai and his story, and I can’t wait to see where the rest of this book goes. These few chapters gave me a taste of the action and adventure that is waiting for us in the full version of this book. I can’t wait for it to release!!
Thank you NetGalley for this free sampler in exchange for my honest review.
I was given this sample e-copy by NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion.
I have read every book that Leigh Bardugo has written in the Grishaverse. My favorites are still the Six of Crows duology, but that is mainly because of the various personalities that were intertwined.
This novel follows Nikolai, the Ravkan king, as he continues to fight against the demon placed inside him by the Darkling. At his side is Zoya, a Grisha stormwitch who must embrace her new power. And, far away and alone in Fjerda, is Nina waging war both personal and political to save her home and her people.
The sample drew me in and I am so excited to read this next installment in Leigh Bardugo's wonderful series. It is my hope to have it completed in time for the Netflix's premiere Shadow and Bone on April 23, 2021.
Already hooked from the first page and this is one of my highly anticipated reads for 2021! I can't wait to get the finished copy!
Leigh Bardugo is an expert writer - but this series feels feels a bit disappointing. I love Nikolai's story, but Nina's is a less interesting.
Looking forward to the whole novel though!
OMG, I NEED MORE! Love this series and this was a great little sampler. Super excited to read the rest of this book.

Overall Impressions:
First I have to say that I’m thrilled to be back in this world. I love it so so much. I have reread Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom recently and I was so devastated when they were over. This is a world I just hate leaving. It’s so vibrant and unique.
I also really love that we’re seeing Nikolai in a pickle. He’s just so fun to watch in these situations. You literally never know where he is going to go. These first few chapters were rife with drama and surprises already but also with the sharp wit, charm, and humor that we’d expect from these characters.
I’m glad that I don’t have too long to wait for more because this teaser is amazing. It's action packed and these chapters lead us up to what will surely be another (stressful) battle for our favorite crew. Get your hands on a copy of King of Scars and get reading so you are ready for the release of Rule of Wolves. It’s going to be epic…and probably a little sad because I don’t want to be done with the Grishaverse.
That being said, we all get to look forward to the Netflix adaptation of Shadow and Bone which is set to launch in April so if you are heartbroken at the end of Rule of Wolves you can rest easy knowing you'll get to see some familiar faces again very soon!
I’m ready for some fun, a little heartbreak because of course there’s going to be some…you can just feel the foreboding…and lots more of that charming Nikolai and Zoya back and forth.
As someone who loves Leigh Bardugo I was ecstatic to be able to read this sampler! It’s the perfect teaser and I cannot wait for the next and final book in this series next month. I’m not ready for it to be over but I am so excited to see the stories of Nina, Nikolai & Zoya play out!
*Rating 4/5*
Sampler- And the 106pages just wanted me to read more!! Can’t wait for the release end of March!!
Rule of Wolves - ties in very nice into the ending of King of Scars (would recommend reading it again!!) Who needs an excuse to re-read any of the Grishaverse series...
I always liked Nina’s and Zoya's characters and being able to experience more in this book is definitely a plus. And another book with Nikolai - how can it dissapoint!! Don’t want to spoil anything. But I can say - this is a “Read all Night”, “Can’t put it down” story.
NEED to know the ending!!
Why is this sampler so short? I could have devoured the whole book right now. Fortunately March 30th is not too far away.
Thank you to netgally for letting me read the first 3 chapters of this book! i cant wait to read the rest when it comes out! highly recommend it.
I am counting down the days until the release for this book!!
King Nokolai is my absolute favorite in the entire universe but coming in a close second is Nina and Zoya. This sampler has me hooked already and I was so sad when I turned the page and it was over! I cannot wait to follow the next chapter in this incredibly well built universe from the brilliant mind of Leigh Bardugo!
Thank you to #Netgalley and #Imprint for this sampler.
March 30th cannot come fast enough!
Bardugo successfully continues the thrilling story started in Six of Crows and the Grishaverse series as well as King of Scars with her usual mastery of writing. This snippet of the book was absolutely wonderful to read and I can't wait until the full book comes out. Certainly one of the most anticipated reads of 2021.
So good already just from the first couple of chapters! I cannot wait for this release! I really hope we get to see more of Zoya and Nikolai's dynamic in later chapters to come!
I was given a free short digital sampler of this book to review, which I am grateful for. That being said, within the first chapter of this book, I found content that implies sexual promiscuity, which I feel is not appropriate for the age range this book was written for (14-18).
"She wanted only to prune her roses and rusticate with a series of wildly handsome lovers..." - Chapter One
"If Makhi didn't conceive daughters with one of her consorts..." - Chapter One
I personally prefer books without sexual content in them, so this book is not for me.
