Meet Kaz Brekker and his crew: Jesper, Inej, Wylan, and the star-crossed Nina and Matthias, on the heist of a lifetime in Six of Crows, from #1 New York Times -bestselling author, Leigh Bardugo. Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price―and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can't pull it off alone. . . . A convict with a thirst for revenge. A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager. A runaway with a privileged past. A spy known as the Wraith. A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes. Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist. Kaz's crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction―if they don't kill each other first. The Six of Crows Duology Six of Crows Crooked Kingdom Praise for Six of Crows “Full-throttle adventure . . . If you’re not careful, it’ll steal all your time.” ― The New York Times Book Review “ Six of Crows is a well-turned heist tale. . . [It] has a muscle car’s drive and a cast that hangs with you like they were made of magnets.” ― NPR Review: Better than the Grisha Trilogy - I’m going to let you all in on a tidbit of information about SIX OF CROWS: I finished reading it in October (of LAST YEAR). I know. I’ve been feeling a little unmotivated to review lately. Well, not to review but to WRITE reviews. I guess that’s kind of the same thing, but anyway. I have a list of books that I am really encouraging myself to review first thing in 2016, and SIX OF CROWS by Leigh Bardugo is one. Because true story? I love it more than the Grisha Trilogy. I do. Just sitting down to write this review is making me want to read it again. Like, REALLY BADLY. In SIX OF CROWS we get to experience a completely different part of the world of Leigh Bardugo’s Grisha Trilogy. We heard mention of the city of Ketterdam in those books, but SIX OF CROWS is where we really get all up in it, and it’s nothing like the Ravka we know. (Makes sense, since it’s a different place.) Ketterdam is a bustling port city built on canals, and the criminal underworld is composed of a bunch of gangs. One of them–arguably the best one–the Dregs, is led by the enigmatic, magnetic Kaz Brekker. When Kaz is approached by a wealthy influential member of the Ketterdam elite to steal something that’s basically two steps down from priceless, he puts together a team to get it. There’s danger, lies, death, feelings, and action all over the place. There are few things I enjoy more than a solid heist story, and Leigh Bardugo really knocks it out of the park with SIX OF CROWS. All of the members of Kaz’s team have their own talents that add value to their efforts, some of them are magical-ish, some of them are not. But this crew of young people–Kaz, Inej, Jesper, Nina, Matthias, and Wylan–are so varied, skilled, and complex that they create this unputdownable book. Seeing them “work” together, sometimes unsuccessfully, to reach their goal just gives me thrills. And if I haven’t mentioned it before, let me mention it now: I LOVE reading or watching plotting scenes. LOVE THEM. Like, after each of the members of the crew has gone out and done some reconnaissance and everyone meets back to up to share and plan…I can’t even. When things come together? I have no words. And because some of these crew members have pasts together or maybe futures, their interactions are full of sparks and attitude. SIGH. Of course, there would be no SIX OF CROWS, no Dregs, no anything without Kaz Brekker. He’s not the easiest guy to like, but UGH I LOVE HIM. He’s so intriguing and mysterious, and he has this shell that’s so hard to penetrate. He’s clever and confident and driven. But he’s also haunted by his own past and it’s shaped him so irrevocably and I just want to give him hugs, except he’s not into that warm fuzzy stuff, I think. He has a WONDERFUL relationship with Inej–INEJ! She’s amazing–that’s hard to describe but maybe not figure out. Does that even make sense. Not sure, but I loved them, independently and together. I also loved Nina and Matthias. GOD THESE TWO. So much hate and so much anger and despair and love and EVERYTHING. The sparks that these two set off are outstanding. One of the other great things about SIX OF CROWS is that it brings us to all these new places in the world Leigh Bardugo has created. Ketterdam, obviously, but also Djerholm, the capital of Fjerda, the frozen north. I love getting to explore the whole world and see the different cultures, a prime example of which is Fjerda. They have some really interesting rituals for their soldiers that, if I’m remembering correctly (October), are a little faith-based, but nothing like the faith we knew in Ravka. (Speaking of Ravka, I’m pretty sure Alina is mentioned, but I’m wasn’t sure while reading and can’t remember now when SIX OF CROWS takes place in relation to the Grisha Trilogy. I’m assuming also that this is not secret information and I’ve just missed it somewhere.) As often goes with heists, there are wrenches in the works, things don’t necessarily turn out how they are planned, and there are unexpected twists. SIX OF CROWS is fast-paced, character-driven, vibrant, and suspenseful. The way things are left make it so that I can barely wait another second for CROOKED KINGDOM. I miss these characters and these places so much. Review: 4-stars: 'Six of Crows' by Leigh Bardugo - This is going to be a very long review. I’m sorry ahead of time, but I knew it wouldn’t be a short review after I finished the book. Lots needed to be typed, but I promise no spoilers. Six of Crows is set in Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse, but this time readers will get to follow six different characters on a mission to pull off a very dangerous heist together. This book will pull you in different directions because all six characters get to tell the story from their point of view before, during, and after the heist. It’s crazy how Leigh Bardugo managed to keep up with all six points of view while building the storyline to this new epic adventure in the Grishaverse. Storyline/My Thoughts: First, if you read the Shadow and Bone Trilogy, then I will let you know now that Six of Crows doesn’t take place simultaneously as the trilogy. It’s set further in the years after the war has happened. Unfortunately, the Grisha are still treated horribly, and most are hidden or at Ravka helping the King rebuild, but this book is not focusing on that storyline. Instead, it’s focusing on six different characters, which each have a different personality and background. They are all supposed to be in their teens but come off as maturer in age. If you lived the way they did, then you would be much wiser in years to deal with the issues they have had to succumb. Readers will get to read some of their backstories when they tell their points of view in Six of Crows. (It’s amazing how authors can keep up with everything. I can’t even remember yesterday sometimes due to memory issues.) I’m going to try to break down what I liked about each character without going overboard. I loved how Leigh Bardugo wrote each character differently. This is one reason why I was interested in the book. Kaz Brekker has a heartbreaking back story, but he has managed to fight through everything thrown at him. He has a disability that requires him to have a cane, but he’s stronger than ever. He’s one scary character, even to his team, because he plans things that will put himself and everyone at risk. I enjoyed his character, especially after finding out what happened to him. He’s on a mission for revenge for what happened to him, and he will do anything to get that revenge. One thing that drove me crazy about him is his feelings for a particular character that he would rather deny than tell the truth. Just tell her!!!! Inej Ghafa is by far my favorite character of the six. She’s been through a lot too, and Kaz saved her from the life she had at the Menagerie. She became known as the Wraith since she’s able to sneak up on people. She’s a fighter. She puts Kaz in his place a couple of times, and only she can do it to him. I could go on and on about her character. I loved getting to read her point of view. Jesper Fahey has a secret that he’s unwilling to share with anyone on the team until he has to on the heist. He has a gambling issue, but he’s an excellent sharpshooter. I loved how even he questioned Kaz, but he also became friendly with another person on the heist. Nina Zenit is a Grisha Heartrender who uses her magic to survive the slums. Her abilities include controlling someone’s breathing, heart, and cells in their bodies. She’s one Grisha you don’t want to mess with, and in this book, she ends up putting herself at risk for everyone else to survive. Matthias Helva is a former druskelle and a Fjerdan witch hunter. Both Nina and he are dangerous together because he can’t stand what she is, and Nina is trying to make it right by Matthias. They have a complicated past and relationship that could put the others at risk. Matthias is one person you either could trust or not, and there were times I didn’t feel I could trust him with the group during the heist. Wylan Van Eck is someone that Kaz brings to the crew for leverage since the person who requested Kaz’s help happens to be Wylan’s father. Wylan, though, has his own tricks up his sleeve, and I hope I get to know him more in the next book. He fit right into the crew during the heist. All six are on a dangerous heist to break out a scientist from an impenetrable prison and put themselves at risk of being put in jail or, worst, being killed. (It’s all Kaz’s fault, but it was a deal that no one could turn down.) The heist reminded me of the movie Ocean’s Eleven, but much more risk to it, and instead of stealing money and gold, they have to steal a person. This person is someone everyone wants for themselves since they have created something that will change the odds. The thing that drove me bonkers about this book was how slow it started for me. It took me a while to gain my interest in the story. I’m used to reading multiple POVs, so that was not an issue. It was the issue of getting to the heist, going through everything, and then how it ended. It took a while to get through it all. I also was bothered by how Kaz did not get the revenge he wanted in this book. He had a chance but didn’t take it. He deserves revenge for what happened to him. He also didn’t share his feelings with a specific character that he should have in this book. I hope he starts sharing them in the next book. I know Kaz will be out for revenge even further in the next book, but for something else entirely. Overall, this book receives four stars from me. I think if the book would’ve grasped me from the beginning and not been slow to start, then I would have given it five stars. There was a lot to take in the beginning. Leigh Bardugo is a master at storytelling, though, and I can’t wait to see the Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows books be brought to life in the Netflix series. I already love the actors/actresses they chose to play the book characters. Now I need to make time to read the Crooked Kingdom because this book left me with a cliffhanger. Standalone or Part of Series: It’s part of the Six of Crows Duology. It’s also part of Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse. (If you read the Shadow and Bone Trilogy, then you will read about certain characters in this book from the current characters. There will be a moment of clarity of who Nina is and where she came from, and why she ended up with the crew. I don’t think you have to read the Shadow and Bone Trilogy to read this book, but I feel readers will miss out on some connections between the books.) Cliffhanger: Yes. Would I recommend this book? Yes. If you are a fan of YA Fantasy involving a dangerous heist with six different characters, you will enjoy this book. I also would recommend the audiobook if you enjoy listening to books. The narrators were fantastic at having the characters come to life when I listened to the book instead of reading it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #54,001 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1 in Teen & Young Adult Fantasy & Supernatural Mysteries & Thrillers #1 in Teen & Young Adult Mystery & Thriller Action & Adventure #1 in Teen & Young Adult Magical Realism Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 53,321 Reviews | ## Images ![Six of Crows - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91tK5sU9oOL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than the Grisha Trilogy *by A***T on January 4, 2016* I’m going to let you all in on a tidbit of information about SIX OF CROWS: I finished reading it in October (of LAST YEAR).

Where should I start with this review? I don’t know if I have the words to tell you how much I enjoyed the reading of Six of Crows. I fell in love with all the characters and the world building. The story is delivered in a way that kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. In this world we find regular humans and Grisha. The major problem in this story is that someone has devised a drug that makes the (magical) Grisha 100x more powerful. The trouble is that once a Grisha takes the drug, they are completely hooked and well on their way to dying. The drug could make a whole army of Grisha slaves, and the owner of that army the most powerful in the world. The object is to rescue the drug maker from prison. The stakes are high, but the reward will set the gang for life. Now they just need to get along and trust each other enough to pull it off. Okay, so we all get that this book is about a heist. The heist has low odds for success, but the price is right. In this story we see six outcasts come together and do the impossible. I have to point out that I have not read any of the Grisha Series, so if there were references to that world, I didn’t get them at all. Despite my ignorance, I had no trouble getting into this story and this world. The Characters: Kaz Brekker– criminal master mind, the leader of the gang, the guy with the plan. Inej– the “wraith”, an acrobat in her former life, excellent pick pocket, stealer of secrets Jasper– gambler, sharp-shooter, has a few secrets himself Nina– Grisha who can kill without touching, sassy, charming, former slave Matthias– former Gruskelle warrior Wylan– rich man’s son, bomb-maker, smarter than he looks We get 5 (third person) POVs in this story (everyone but Wylan). As crazy as it sounds, I had no trouble following this story. Each character who gets a turn has a good reason for telling their part of the tale. We get so much from the characters in this book. I fell in love with all of them. We get so much of the characters backstories, it is hard not to understand how they ended up on the wrong side of the law. They are all wonderfully flawed and completely lovable. There was no boring info dumping in order for us to get their back story either. Everything was given to the reader at just the right time, and just the proper amount. With the range of personalities in this story, there are bound to be conflicts. With the motivation being so much money, they get along enough to not kill each other. Inevitably I some shipping of certain couples in this story. Unfortunately, they have to overcome major issues for them to set sail. The only great thing I can say about the slight romance glimpses in this story is that there is a sequel, so I can still hold out hope. The Pacing: The pacing is so perfect in this story. I felt so much angst in the reading of this book. After initially getting to know the cast, they join together and head off on their heist. The whole group spends a lot of time in peril. They are really putting their freedom on the line to break into a prison and free someone. We don’t get to know much of the plan. As Kaz is telling people what to do, we are in the dark as much as the are. When the plan does come together, it is magical. The World Building: I could clearly see this locations for this book. Ketterdam has basically become a place I want to visit if I get a Genie to grant me a wish. It is basically a slum with a bunch of gangs but it also has a great nightlife which includes brothels and gambling dens. I would love to walk those streets, even if it cost me my wallet. We don’t stay in Ketterdam for this whole story though. No we go by ship to a place called The Ice Court where this heist takes place. The journey is full of danger. The author has dreamed up a whole world for the reader to discover. The clothes, customs, and languages are all pure imagination. I couldn’t be happier with the descriptive details given in this book. There are regular people with stealth and wit. There is also so much magic in this world. Unlike other fantasy stories, there are also regular people without magic. The magic has certain rules and is easy enough for me to wrap my head around. In Conclusion: I couldn’t have liked this story more. This book met and exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait for the sequel (this is the first of a duology). I highly recommend this story to YA Fantasy fans! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/18473156-six-of-crows](https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/18473156-six-of-crows) --- *Product available on Desertcart Oman* *Store origin: OM* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
