In my opinion, the most outstanding feature of this story is the characters and their development. If you have not yet read one of Leigh Bardugo's books, resolve to rectify that oversight immediately! The writing is enchanting and otherworldly, filled with plot twists and cliff hangers to keep you in constant suspense. Six deadly convicts, one impossible mission. Together they must break into the Ice Court, a notorious military base that has never been breached. In a world of constant turmoil and gang rivalry, where the Grisha are under constant duress for their superhuman abilities, Kaz and his companions must achieve the impossible, because here, what makes you different makes you dangerous. Jesper, the humorist who can't walk away from a wager. Nina, a Heartrender who can break necks with nothing more than a glance. Wylan, the wealthy merchant's son with a lot to learn about villainy. Matthias, an escaped convict searching for his ticket to freedom. When Kaz is offered a chance at a perilous mission that could turn his poverty-stricken life upside down, he is determined to see the task fulfilled - but he won't be able to do it alone. In The Barrel, anything is possible for the right price, and no one knows this better than criminal mastermind, Kaz Brekker. Summary: If you have not yet read one of Leigh Bardugo's books, resolve to rectify that oversight immediately! From the world of 'Shadow and Bone' comes 'Six of Crows' - richly imagined, perfectly paced, I loved everything about this book!
