Author Leigh Bardugo revealed the color of the Crooked Kingdom pages and it’s wickedly beautiful.
One of our favorite authors blogged on her Tumblr the reveal of the color that’s going to be edging the Crooked Kingdom pages. Crooked Kingdom is the sequel to Six of Crows, which is about a group of criminals and miscreants who band together to attempt to pull off the biggest heist of their lives. In Six of Crows’ first run of hardcovers, the pages were stained in black. But this time around, the Crooked Kingdom pages will be edged in red.
1. The gorgeous hardcover of Crooked Kingdom will feature RED STAINED PAGES and new art by Keith Thompson.
Crooked Kingdom will be available in stores September 27, 2016. However, if you haven’t had a chance to purchase Six of Crows, a Six of Crows boxed set for both books:
2. The Six of Crows Boxed Set will include hardcover editions of Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom and it is absurdly beautiful.
Not only is the duology going to be available to everyone with the black-stained and red-stained pages, but if you aren’t familiar with the amazingness that is The Grisha Trilogy, those, too, will also be coming out in a boxed set for the paperback editions of the books.
3. The Grisha Trilogy Boxed Set features paperback editions of Shadow & Bone, Siege & Storm, and Ruin & Rising, AND will include a collectible poster-size MAP of the Grishaverse by Keith Thompson. These paperbacks include Mal’s Letter, “The Tailor” (Genya’s POV chapter), and “Demon in the Wood” (a Darkling prequel story). Also a whole lotta interviews with me.

About Crooked Kingdom (mild spoilers for Six of Crows):
Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn’t think they’d survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they’re right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and left crippled by the kidnapping of a valuable team member, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz’s cunning and test the team’s fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city’s dark and twisting streets―a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of magic in the Grisha world.
