In a war-torn world divided by a monstrous chasm of darkness known as the Shadow Fold, orphan soldier Alina Starkov discovers she possesses a rare power that could be the key to uniting her country. She is thrust into the opulent world of the Grisha, a magical elite, where she must learn to harness her abilities.

But General Kirigan has returned to finish what he started. Backed by a terrifying new army of seemingly indestructible shadow monsters and fearsome new Grisha recruits, Kirigan is more dangerous than ever. To stand a fighting chance against him, Alina and Mal rally their own powerful new allies and begin a continent-spanning journey to find two mythical creatures that will amplify her powers. Back in Ketterdam, the Crows must forge new alliances as they contend with old rivals and even older grudges that threaten not only their place in the Barrel, but their very lives. When a chance at a deadly heist comes their way, the Crows will once again find themselves on a collision course with the legendary Sun Summoner.
