Summary

Mia est devenue la plus douée des assassins。
Pour accomplir sa vengeance， elle est prête à tout， même à l'impossible。
Le retour de la saga Nevernight par le génial Jay Kristoff。
Jay Kristoff poursuit son incroyable saga Nevernight avec ce deuxième tome : Les grands jeux。

Mia est fait maintenant partie des Lames de Notre-Dame du Saint Meurtre au sein de L'Église rouge。 Mais beaucoup pensent qu'elle n'a pas mérité ce titre。 Elle commet des assassinats au nom de l'organisation， mais au fond d'elle son objectif est resté le même : se venger des responsables de l'assassinat de sa famille。 Après une confrontation avec un mystérieux ennemi， Mia commence à douter des vraies motivations de L'Église rouge。
Lorsqu'il est annoncé que Scaeva et Duomo vont faire une apparition aux Grands Jeux de Sépulcra， la cité des morts， Mia choisit de défier l'Église rouge et se fait délibérément enlever afin d'être vendue à une troupe de gladiateurs。 Par ce moyen et en gagnant les Grands Jeux， elle pourra s'approcher au plus près des assassins de sa famille et enfin accomplir sa vengeance。 Mais tout ne va pas se passer comme prévu。。。

AlysinBookland ，

Love both books so far （now onto the third！）， but with Godsgrave。。。。。 did anyone else keep comparing it to Spartacus？ A few of the scenes I couldn't help but keep seeing the TV show。 Example。 The pissing in the porridge， the winnowing with "the Siege of Blackbridge" reenactment。It really felt like the author might have been watching the series while writing this 🤔 I love both so I'm not complaining， much love regardless。 Love both books so far （now onto the third！）， but with Godsgrave。。。。。 did anyone else keep comparing it to Spartacus？ A few of the scenes I couldn't help but keep seeing the TV show。 Example。 The pissing in the porridge， the winnowing with "the Siege of Blackbridge" reenactment。It really felt like the author might have been watching the series while writing this 🤔 I love both so I'm not complaining， much love regardless。 。。。more

This would have probably been a 5-star review， but I’ve heard most of this story before。 Much of the plot and the characters were lifted straight from the Spartacus series on STARZ。 So Kristoff only gets credit for the work he did himself。 Honestly， I don’t know how this was not flagged for copyright infringement。 It’s not just “inspired by” or borrowing a few character names in homage。 It’s straight up plagiarized in parts。 I won’t be continuing with this series or this author。

“In every breath， hope abides。” 。。。 “Just keep breathing， little Crow。” It’s safe to say that if Nevernight chewed me up and spat me out， this one bludgeoned me with a mallet until I was a bloody pulp！ The second in the Nevernight chronicles & once again brilliantly written， overall， I prefer the pace & storyline of Godsgrave compared to Nevernight。 While NN took a little bit of time to get into the rhythm of the story， this one plunges you headfirst into the blood pools of this world， all the w “In every breath， hope abides。” 。。。 “Just keep breathing， little Crow。” It’s safe to say that if Nevernight chewed me up and spat me out， this one bludgeoned me with a mallet until I was a bloody pulp！ The second in the Nevernight chronicles & once again brilliantly written， overall， I prefer the pace & storyline of Godsgrave compared to Nevernight。 While NN took a little bit of time to get into the rhythm of the story， this one plunges you headfirst into the blood pools of this world， all the while you’re wiping the gore & muck from your eyes。 Mia continues her journey of avenging her family in this one， going so far as to sell herself into slavery to make it possible， becoming a Gadiataii to do it。 There is a lot more action in this one， the pace faster & though I didn’t think it possible， the stakes even higher。 I’ll once again remind readers to guard their hearts， don’t allow yourself to fall in love with anyone in Jay’s stories， he’s as brutal as he is brilliant with his storylines， which means very few make it out with a pulse。 While there was plenty of bloodshed， there was also plenty of character development for Mia & the relationships around her。 I won’t say who I stupidly ended up loving because as I’ve warned you already， loving anyone in this story just sets you up for heartbreak， but feel free to tell me who you did & I’ll respond in kind。 LGBTQIA+ love， sorcery， slavery， assassin's， epic Gladiator battles， snark， shadow magic， & plenty vengeance， Jay covered ALL his bases in this one， how this one can be topped is yet to be seen but I have a feeling I’ll be needing at least one kitty on my lap at all times while reading it to keep me calm。 I still love Eclipse & Mister Kindly， their snark & resentment of each other was amusing。 I laughed at the epilogue with Jay addressing the reader being upset about the cliff-hanger 😂 if Darkdawn wasn’t already on my shelf ready to be read as soon as Godsgrave was finished it would have applied to me！ 。。。more

This book was gripping and entertaining from the beginning to the end。 There was always a lot of actions and twists and turns。 Especially at the end， it was just plot twist after plot twist （some more predictable than others but all good nonetheless）， and I really enjoyed the precise of this book。 Also while I like main characters that are morally grey， I love main characters who are villainous at times。 Abs Mia is both those things with a sprinkle of bitchiness and a dash of vulgarity。 Great ma This book was gripping and entertaining from the beginning to the end。 There was always a lot of actions and twists and turns。 Especially at the end， it was just plot twist after plot twist （some more predictable than others but all good nonetheless）， and I really enjoyed the precise of this book。 Also while I like main characters that are morally grey， I love main characters who are villainous at times。 Abs Mia is both those things with a sprinkle of bitchiness and a dash of vulgarity。 Great main characters。 Cannot wait to pick up the final book。 。。。more

Jay Kristoff， you are a mischievous god among writers and I love you for it。

This was an exciting second book。 There is a cliffhanger and I can't wait to see the conclusion in book three。 Tons of gory scenes with a backdrop of gladiator type of fighting。 Lots of twists and turns to keep you gasping and guessing。 This was an exciting second book。 There is a cliffhanger and I can't wait to see the conclusion in book three。 Tons of gory scenes with a backdrop of gladiator type of fighting。 Lots of twists and turns to keep you gasping and guessing。 。。。more

2。5 stars - I don't think I like the direction the second book took。 I am a bit reluctant to pick up the third and final book。 2。5 stars - I don't think I like the direction the second book took。 I am a bit reluctant to pick up the third and final book。 。。。more

Jjjjs ，

Ну что ж， приходится констатировать， что вторая часть написана лучше первой。 Нас ждут новые похождения повзрослевшей Убийцы， ради мести готовой на всё。У неё есть дерзкий План， который правда висит на тонких нитях Удачи и Судьбы。 Читается легко， ну а книга при этом намного ближе к хорошей литературе。 Только вот подозрительно похожа на один роман Джованьоли и тот кровавый сериал о гладиаторах， "Спартак"。Ну это я придираюсь， хе-хе🤫 Ну что ж， приходится констатировать， что вторая часть написана лучше первой。 Нас ждут новые похождения повзрослевшей Убийцы， ради мести готовой на всё。У неё есть дерзкий План， который правда висит на тонких нитях Удачи и Судьбы。 Читается легко， ну а книга при этом намного ближе к хорошей литературе。 Только вот подозрительно похожа на один роман Джованьоли и тот кровавый сериал о гладиаторах， "Спартак"。Ну это я придираюсь， хе-хе🤫 。。。more

Don't remember how I found this series， but I love it！！ Enjoyed this book more than the last one， which sometimes isn't the case with a series。 Still full of twists and turns that make you love Mia "Crow"， even more。 Such a great heroine！！！ Can't wait too start the next one。 Don't remember how I found this series， but I love it！！ Enjoyed this book more than the last one， which sometimes isn't the case with a series。 Still full of twists and turns that make you love Mia "Crow"， even more。 Such a great heroine！！！ Can't wait too start the next one。 。。。more

Awesome。 Nice suspense。 Nice ending。 Jay kristoff surpassed my expectations。 Book three here I come。

I really love this series。This book took me much longer to finish than it should have but through no fault of its own。 Life and all。 But it was an action-packed， emotional， and well-written epic that has me giddy with anticipation for the finale。As Nevernight followed the "boarding school" trope， it can be tricky to follow that up properly。 And it was a risk to have the story move to gladiator-style focus but I think it worked fantastically。 Not only does it build and expand upon the Italian-ins I really love this series。This book took me much longer to finish than it should have but through no fault of its own。 Life and all。 But it was an action-packed， emotional， and well-written epic that has me giddy with anticipation for the finale。As Nevernight followed the "boarding school" trope， it can be tricky to follow that up properly。 And it was a risk to have the story move to gladiator-style focus but I think it worked fantastically。 Not only does it build and expand upon the Italian-inspired world but it allows for plenty of action and tense situations。All of the characters， new and old， are well written and no one felt like a plot device or stock character。 Watching Mia grow throughout this book is excellent， and her relationships with the various characters is so well-written。 Jay Kristoff really expanded on Nevernight， in both characters and world-building， and the series is much better for it。Overall， another excellent entry to this series and one I'll be thinking about for a while。 Hopefully Darkdawn sends the series off on a high note！ 。。。more

Is this book fucking amazing？ YepAm I regretting leaving it on my tbr for ages？ TotallyWill I get any sleep tonight？ NopeWhy？ Because the next book is already in my hands and I can’t believe I’m actually wasting time writing this review instead of opening the first page

If I would've read these books as they released， I would've gone INSANE waiting a year for the next installment， because the ending to this one is GODDAMN WILD。Godsgrave is somehow even better than Nevernight and I am both absolutely terrified and thrilled to start reading the last of this chronicle。 If I would've read these books as they released， I would've gone INSANE waiting a year for the next installment， because the ending to this one is GODDAMN WILD。Godsgrave is somehow even better than Nevernight and I am both absolutely terrified and thrilled to start reading the last of this chronicle。 。。。more
