REVIEW: With sagging plotlines but stellar performances from its cast, the second season of ‘Shadow And Bone’ adaptation is more fun than not.

in the Grishaverse series by author Leigh Bardugo,is set in a magical land where imprints of some of the most prominent cities in their most famous eras — think plague-era Amsterdam, dynasty-ruled Beijing, Tsarist Moscow, and Viking Stockholm — not only exist, but are roughly a three-day journey from each other. Oh and also there’s magic. Fantasy tropes abound in Season One, which introduced viewers to Alina Starkov as a sainted Grisha with the rare power of Sun-Summoning.

Season Two opens with Kirigan firmly cast in the villain department, Mal and Alina in love but on the run, and a cast of characters introduced in the first season finally working together while meeting other quirky outside characters . Alina wants to destroy The Fold and Kirigan once and for all, but must choose between love and the future of her world, which means accepting help from unlikely places.
