    Summary

    The Shadow Fold has endured for more than six hundred years. Now in the twenty-first century, the Darkling serves under greedy politicians as a five-star General of the Second Army. Until he can make his move towards power, until he can finally find his fabled Sun Summoner.

    Alina Starkov is just an entry-level intelligence analyst for the Ravkan First Army, watching massive screens of satellite footage for hours on end. Mostly handling documentation, cross-referencing incoming intel, outlining small skirmishes on digital maps. The minutia kind of stuff. She'd be the first to tell you that she isn't anyone special, certainly not Grisha.

    Or: A modern retelling of Shadow and Bone.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Firstly, it’s three am and my brain has no interest in adding in additional punctuation to this, so if it starts to read weird; my apologies .
    Though the story is quite interesting and extremely well written, it seems that a non offensive and; frankly silly opinion on my part, on the authors real life views on a public figure has made the author block me from commenting.

    Which is honestly quite strange to me as I’ve never encountered such a situation. I’m from South Africa btw, so anyone who lies about being compared to former President Nelson Mandela is obviously going to be Public Enemy #1.
    That was the gist of my comment including how I would just not venture to the Author’s Notes section, since that is where it would be explained that certain situations, outfits, etc, were based on this public figure and I don’t really know all that much about this public figure outside of her stints in my country. So it was just a distraction to the novel for me, but one easily avoided.
    It seems the author is a major fan of this person so I am not particularly bothered that she would like to defend her celebrity idol, but I am bothered by the implication that my comment was egregious enough to warrant banning me from commenting on it.
    I guess read it because it truly is a Fantastic read and I enjoy it still despite this small quarrel. However; at your own risk, don’t comment on the public figure this author is a fan of. I didn’t even think it would escalate to this level where my first book mark on here is to explain to the author no harm was meant and no emotions need be wasted on misunderstandings.

    Apologies and sorry if I offended you!
