Af forfatteren til Grisha-trilogien, Six of Crows-duologien og Tornenes sprog - midnatsfortællinger kommer endnu en fantastisk og dyster fortælling fra Grishaverset. Nikolai Lantsov er en hemmelighedsfuld prins. Ingen kender til de rædsler, han gennemgik under borgerkrigen i hans land, og han har ingen planer om at afsløre dem for nogen. Hans land er truet af fjender udefra, og Nikolai er tvunget til at søge nye alliancer, da en voksende trussel mod den svækkede grishahærnærmer sig.   Men Nikolai selv kæmper også med en mørk magi, der spreder sig i ham dag for dag, og som truer med at tilintetgøre alt det, han har kæmpet for. I et forsøg på at bekæmpe sine indre dæmoner, rejser Nikolai til de steder i Ravka, hvor den stærkeste magi har overlevet. Han vil ofre alt for at redde sit land og sig selv. Men nogle hemmeligheder bør forblive hemmelige, og nogle sår kan aldrig heles.King of Scars er en selvstændig historie i Grishaverset, og kan altså læses uafhængigt af de andre bøger i universet.

Der var engang ... og det er IKKE for børn!Her er en samling af dystre, eventyrlige fortællinger, der alle fører læseren ind i en magisk verden med blodtørstige uhyrer, hekse, prinser og magiske væsner, der tørster efter magt, hævn og kærlighed. Det er fortællinger om unge, stærke piger, der trodser den klassiske forestilling om, at de skal vente på en, der er stærkere end dem selv, for at at klare sig gennem en ondskabsfuld verden. Her tager pigerne sagen i egne hænder og begiver sig ud på farlige rejser, der meget vel kan koste dem livet, men som også kan få afgørende betydning for deres liv og lykke. Og de er ikke alle rene af hjertet ... Af samme forfatter til Six of Crows-serien og Grisha-trilogien.
