Praise for Six of Crows:
"Six of Crows is a twisty and elegantly crafted masterpiece that thrilled me from the beginning to end." –New York Times-bestselling author Holly Black
"Six of Crows [is] one of those all-too-rare, unputdownable books that keeps your eyes glued to the page and your brain scrambling to figure out what's going to happen next." –Michael Dante DiMartino, co-creator of Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra

WEST OF RAVKA, WHERE GRISHAS ARE ENSLAVED AND ENGAGED IN SMOKING GAMES AND MERCHANTS... ?is Ketterdam, the capital of Kerch, a bustling place where everything can be had at the right price. In the streets and alleys swarming with treachery, illegal merchandise, and shady gang affairs, no one is a better negotiator than Kaz Brekker, the cheat himself and the owner of Crow's Club. As a result, Kaz is hired to lead an unlikely heist and prevent a terrible drug from falling into the wrong hands, which could wreak devastating chaos. Only two outcomes are possible for this theft: a painful death or a fortune far greater than all his dreams of wealth. Betting his own life, the owner of Clube do Corvo assembles his elite team for the mission: the spy known as Espectro; an explosives-expert fugitive with a mysterious past of privilege; a sniper addicted to gambling; a bleeding grisha who is far from home; and a prisoner who wants revenge on his love of life. The fate of the world is in the hands of six outlaws - if they survive each other.

Six of Crows is the first installment in Leigh Bardugo¿s new series which takes place in the same universe as her immensely popular Grisha trilogy. If you are unfamiliar with her debut series, this one might be a little confusing as it is written with the understanding that the reader already has a grasp on the world involving Grisha. Bardugo¿s writing immediately drew me in, her world is rich, her characters are complex, and the story line provided plenty of twists that kept me guessing till the end. Though the characters in this novel are in their teens, they could have easily been written as older characters with burdensome backstories and intelligent personalities.

Une Grisha aux pouvoirs exceptionnels.

Le prisonnier à enlever est l'inventeur de la "Jurda parem", une drogue multipliant sans limites le pouvoir des Grishas tout en les rendant soumis et dépendants. Kaz décide donc de réunir une équipe aux talents exceptionnels :
- Inej, espionne hors pair alias le Spectre,
- Matthias, soldat druskelle dévoré par sa haine des Grishas,
- Nina, ancienne guerrière de l'armée grisha,
- Wylan, escamoteur débutant, fugueur et otage volontaire,
- Jesper, tireur d'élite qui parierait sa vie pour le goût du jeu.
Ces coéquipiers malgré eux feront face à un enchaînement effréné d'épreuves : libérer Matthias d'Hellgate, faire face aux gangs rivaux prêts à les doubler, survivre à l'explosion de leur navire et surtout s'infiltrer dans l'imprenable cité des glaces !.

Nas ruas e nos becos que fervilham de traições, mercadorias ilegais e assuntos escusos entre gangues, ninguém é melhor negociador que Kaz Brekker, a trapaça em pessoa e o dono do Clube do Corvo. Por isso, Kaz é contratado para liderar um assalto improvável e evitar que uma terrível droga caia em mãos erradas, o que poderia instaurar um caos devastador. Apenas dois desfechos são possíveis para esse roubo: uma morte dolorosa ou uma fortuna muito maior que todos os seus sonhos de riqueza. Apostando a própria vida, o dono do Clube do Corvo monta a sua equipe de elite para a missão: a espiã conhecida como Espectro; um fugitivo perito em explosivos e com um misterioso passado de privilégios; um atirador viciado em jogos de azar; uma grisha sangradora que está muito longe de casa; e um prisioneiro que quer se vingar do amor de sua vida. O destino do mundo está nas mãos de seis foras da lei – isso se eles sobreviverem uns aos outros.
