Vir twee dekades reeds swaai Lillie die heksie haar towerstaffie
oor kinderboekrakke dwarsoor die wereld. Met totale wereldwye
verkope van meer as 20 miljoen eksemplare en vertalings in 40 tale
is geen towerformule nodig om te voorspel dat sy ook Afrikaanse
harte gaan verower nie! Die selfleesboekies is gemik om agtjariges
en ouer. Lillie is uit haar vel uit van blydskap toe sy ’n
mikroskoop vir haar verjaarsdag kry. Sy wil dit al so lank he!
Wanneer sy ’n sneeuvlokkie onder die lens plaas, is sy stomgeslaan
oor die prag en wil noodgedwonge ’n land van sneeu en ys besoek.
Met die heksesprong beland sy in Wonderland. Maar iets is daar nie
pluis nie. Die koning het vermis geraak en Somer- en Lenteland word
stadig maar seker al hoe kouer. Winter neem oor. En gerugte van ’n
wrede vors doen die rondte. Lillie en Hektor, haar draakvriendjie,
gaan ondersoek instel.

Bone, an original series!* The stunning sequel to SIX OF CROWS,
this is GAME OF THRONES meets OCEAN'S ELEVEN in a fantasy epic from
the number 1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.
Welcome to the world of the Grisha. Kaz Brekker and his crew of
deadly outcasts 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 badly weakened, 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 the Grisha world. As
gripping, sweeping and memorable as the Grisha trilogy - SHADOW AND
BONE, SIEGE AND STORM and RUIN AND RISING - this novel is perfect
for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Laini Taylor, Kristin Cashore and GAME
OF THRONES. Winner of the Teen Choice Book Award for Book of the
Year.
