ADVERTISEMENT {REVIEW}
I received this book as a review copy in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. A big thank you goes here to Hachette Australia.
Before he led Ravka's Second Army, before he created the Fold, and long before he became the Darkling, he was just a lonely boy burdened by an extraordinary power. Eryk and his mother, Lena, have spent their lives on the run. But they will never find a safe haven. They are not only Grisha - they are the deadliest and rarest of their kind. Feared by those who wish to destroy them and hunted by those who would exploit their gifts, they must hide their true abilities wherever they go. But sometimes deadly secrets have a way of revealing themselves . . .

First of all, how stunning is the cover of Demon in the Wood by Leigh Bardugo and Dani Pendergast 😍 As soon as I saw it, I knew I’d have to read this stunner!!
This graphic novel is filled to the brim with beautiful art that supports this Darkling origin story. It is a quick, yet captivating read for in between.
This background / prequel story made me feel even more for the Darkling! I mean, yes he’s the villain but there are plenty of reasons why he is the way he is. And this gorgeous graphic novel dives right into them.
I would definitely recommend this book to everyone who enjoys the Grishaverse and I’ll definitely pick it up again in the future.
