Only three chapters?
ONLY THREE CHAPTERS????
My life will no longer make sense until this book comes out and maybe beyond!

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC sampler.

Within a few chapters, we see war and intrigue stirring. The characterization is gripping, and so much is already at stake. Kingdoms! Love! Betrayal! Who will end up on top? I really can't guess.

This promises to be an adventurous and thrilling book, and I'm excited to read more. If you're a fan of Leigh Bardugo, this something you're going to want to read.

Oh wow - these first few chapters of Leigh Bardugo's upcoming novel are a really fun tease to what promises to be an exciting story! It definitely makes me want to go back and read the first book. And this cover! Wow - the detail is so gorgeous!

I was really excited to get this! It has the first three chapters. It definitely is diving into the political world of the Grisha verse. I can't wait to read the full book.

A worthy continuation of the Grishaverse series, this sampler from Rule of Wolves sets up a tense, adventurous conflict for a familiar cast of heroes and villains.
Leigh Bardugo’s world building is incredibly lengthy and detailed, but invitingly so. Political intrigue and a mysterious blight set up a strong first act; the author does a thorough but not heavy-handed introduction to the ensemble cast of characters so new or unfamiliar readers can catch up on events.
The real strength of the writing lies in the relationships of the characters in this ensemble piece, and the details and motivations of those characters as the plot slowly unwinds.

Recommended for: Fans of the Grishaverse, people who like politics and war with their fantasy

This is one of my most anticipated reads of 2021. Im so excited for this book and these chapters have only fed the excitement. Can't wait to read the whole book soon

I am a huge fan of anything Leigh Bardugo writes! I have pre-ordered Rule of Wolves and can not wait for it to arrive! When I saw the sampler was available I jumped on it to whet my appetite. Sure enough, I now will die when the full book arrive!

While I've only read the sampler of this book, between what I read and my experience with Leigh Bardugo, I am confident this will be a 5-star book. The chapters included in the sampler promise an epic conclusion to the Grishaverse. Already, you can see the pieces moving into place for an incredible setup of conflict and adventure for these characters we love. I can not wait to get my hands on a full copy!

Is it March 30th yet? This teaser only got me more hyped up to read the full book. I love so many of the characters in Leigh Bardugo's world, but I am so excited to get back to Nikolai again.

I cannot WAIT for this to come out--it's been too long since we've seen Nikolai. As always, Bardugo's ability to pull you in immediately with a good story and her wonderful characters remains true. Her wit and humor constantly come out through Nikolai and Zoya's banter and I can't wait to see what's in store for them next.

Leigh Bardugo really knows how to put a cliffhanger. The first three chapters were so beautiful written and perfect to settle the plot of this second book. I'm excited and scared to see what's gonna happen in this second one.

This sampler shows once again that Bardugo knows how to draw the reader in and make them want to keep flipping the pages and delve deeper into the characters she creates.
I can't wait to buy and finish the novel.

I think that after so long since the first book came out, there needs to be some sort of refresher, or perhaps a clearer opening? The first three chapters aren't that clear so I found myself confused and trying to remember all the characters and all their roles, as well as figuring out some new characters.

Leigh Bardugo is an incredibly talented author and her writing never disappoints. Nina and Nikolai are two of my favorite characters ever written and I'm so excited to see more of their story unfold in RoW. Rule of Wolves is one of my most anticipated reads for 2021 and I'm so excited for its release in a couple weeks.

This sampler has be completely ready to binge Rule of Wolves as soon as it hits shelves at the end of March.
As always Bardugo is a masterful storyteller

The next Grishaverse book drops soon, and after the cliffhanger of King of Scars, I was really excited about the sampler to Rule of Wolves! It's a short taste of what's to come but I loved how we got to see a little bit of Nina, and then some more of Zoya and Nikolai. The book doesn't take much time to jump into where it left off, and that has me so excited for the pacing! Can't wait to finally get Rule of Wolves in my hands now.

I have to be honest I’m a fan of the Grishaverse so I’m already hooked with this sample of Rule of Wolves and need to read the rest of the story. I’m immediately immersed in the world building and characters (Nikolai is a forever favourite however) so I can tell this will be a 4/5 stars

Not sure why I've even done this. Now I absolutely can't wait to read this book fully!

Characters that we all loved are coming back, oh Nina and Hana...

Intrigued about the princess, she will have to choose between family and friends, this exert is great way of giving a warning of whats coming from "Families" side.... Loads of political drama by the looks of it... Can't wait!

Amazing description of Nina, Nikolai, Ehri and Zoya. I am grateful to Netgalley for this opportunity.

Please note: My review at this moment in time is for the sampler only (first three chapters). Upon the book’s release, I’ll post an updated, more thorough review here and on retailer sites once I’ve read the entire book and will adjust my rating accordingly if needed.

Thoughts on the sampler: I read a three-chapter sampler courtesy of NetGalley, and I need more. The story grabbed me right from the start, and I quickly became invested. It provided the perfect glimpse into the upcoming book, but I almost regret it because I want to keep reading. It felt like I was reuniting with old friends, and I’m beyond curious and excited to see how this duology will come to a close.

I’m going to bide my time until release doing an entire Grishaverse reread, which will refresh my memory and get me even more amped than I already am for the upcoming Shadow and Bone show.
