Wow this sampler did a good job hyping me up for the book release! King of Scars was a solid read for me, but I wasnt dying for the next book. However the new perspective in the first chapter of Rule of Wolves caught my attention. I'm not sure if it was a one off chapter or if we will be reading more from this perspective but I'm interested in finding out! Reading the next 2 chapters made me remember how much I enjoyed Nina's and Nikolai's perspective. It also summarized the events from King of Scars in a way that didn't just feel like a summary. The plot and stakes of the story are quite intense and I'm more excited to find out how it will end now!

This has made me even more excited for this book to be release!

One of my favorite YA series by the most incredible author and always she has knocked it out the park again. I hope the rest of the book is as good at the beginning

I have been anxiously awaiting this book since finishing King of Scars. This series takes Bardugo's world to a whole new level, focusing on the big picture politics as well as individual stories. This sampler includes the perspective chapters of Nina, Nikolai and a very interesting chapter from Shu-Ham queen Makhi. Even though I read King of Scars two years ago, I was able to remember details based on some light exposition. I am definitely excited to read the whole book in a few months!

I was not really a big fan of King of Scars, partly because of how much of a disappointment it was after Crooked Kingdom and partly because I hate Zoya with all my being, but I really do want to continue with this series and know how the story ends. The sampler had me thinking I can give this one more try until I reached the chapter where Zoya made an appearance. Umm. Maybe not.

I was one of the few who did not like King of Scars, but I'm.still curious about what happens next. This sampler did exactly as it was ment to do and makes me want to read the rest. Leigh Bardugos writing as always is phenomenal.

So excited to continue into the Grishaverse with this next installment!
I can already tell I'm going to enjoy this book. The world-building and magic system in this series is so refreshing and awesome.

Within a few chapters, Leigh Bardugo is able to masterfully emerce readers right into the Grishaverse once more. Shining with revenge plots, undercover missions and a brew war, Rule of Wolves begins to wrap up a beautiful duology.

Despite the shortness of this sampler, the writing, characters and world of Rule of Wolves is absolutely stunning. Leigh Bardugo knows how to perfectly combine detail with action, creating a story brimming with excitement and allure.

Overall, my need to read the rest of this book is heightened by reading this excellent sampler. Thank you Netgallery and the publisher for providing me with a little sample of Rule Of Wolves. I cannot wait to dive into the rest of the story soon!

Loved this sampler! Only three chapters but it seems like a good beginning to the book. I'm ready to jump back into the Grisha world--I can't wait to read the rest of it!

I'm SO EXCITED for this sampler and this novel. Right away you're thrown into the action. Yes, a new character is introduced immediately but Bardugo does an amazing job of reminding you what happened in the first novel.

So excited to to reread the Grishaverse before the Shadow and Bone show comes out! No doubt it will be amazing.

I can't wait to dive back into the Grisha world when this book comes out! I am certain it's going to be as good as the first book, maybe even better!

Bardugo doesn't disappoint! After the cliffhanger of the last book, I can't wait to dive into this one. Her writing is precise and memorable, and March 30th can't come fast enough.

I hope that after the somewhat confusing middle of the previous book that she's able to bring all these plotlines together for a satisfying conclusion!

"Rule of Wolves" by Leigh Bardugo is the second book in a duology taking place in the now infamous Grishaverse. After a wildly successful first installment, this sampler was an easy selection! Bardugo's writing is clear, descriptive and extremely entertaining. The sampler opens with a more ominous attitude as Makhi learns that Nikolai and Ehri are alive, and her plans for marching into the territory need remediation. This dark beginning will have readers pulling for the main characters and hoping for the best possible outcome.

Bardugo writes from multiple points of view which makes the work seem more immersive. Readers will have a birds eye view of the story and be able to follow along with different characters which keeps the pages turning quickly. I enjoyed Nickolai's POV the best, but looked forward to reading the other perspectives as well. This sampler was a great first look into the book and I'll definitely be picking up a copy when it releases!

Blogger's Note: Thank you to the publisher for providing me with a gifted copy of the "Rule of Wolves" Sampler in exchange for an honest review.

I was so happy to receive even 3 chapters in this book! I cannot wait to get the finished copy at the end of the month. Bardugo does a great job of building worlds. I love the Grishaverse. These chapters gave me a taste and reminded me about what happened before making me even more excited for this book!

This teaser has made me even more excited for this book to come out! The tension is immediately there, and we were given no indication of how anything would resolve. I love Zoya so much and want only the best for her.

I only received the sampler for this book - so the first three chapters I believe - which only made me even more excited for the release of the book! I love reading about Nikolai's story (Zoya and Nina too)! And really, anything Leigh Bardugo writes, sign me up for it please!!

Is it March 30th yet? That sampler has me (not so) patiently waiting for my copy to arrive in the mail. Can't wait to see how things play out!

This may just be a sampler, but it offers enough to make me impatient to read the entire book. Looking forward to it.

This is my most anticipated new release for 2021! I absolutely cannot wait to read the full novel! Reading this sampler has gotten me so excited for the books release!

So excited for this book to come out in April! I loved these chapters, I would hooked from the beginning, a great start to the book with the scheming of Queen Makhi. Leigh Bardugo paints images of beautiful scenery while also delving into human motivations and emotions. One the books I'm most excited to read in 2021! Everyone should read all her grishaverse book series!
