Even when the plot of the Netflix series trips over itself, the characters are still given space for intense and meaningful relationships.
The newcomers to the ensemble cast take to the story with ease, sliding in with smirks and one-liners that balance Alina’s serious determination and Kaz’s cutting personality. Wylan Van Eck , who becomes a part of the Crows as their demolitions expert, likewise finds a fantastic foil in Kit Young’s Jesper Fahey, and their romance in the show is absolutely delightful, especially taken alongside the Crows’ unrequited loves and separated sweethearts.
I could sing the praises of every actor. I haven’t mentioned Reneaux’s intensity when he speaks about love to Alina, or Amita Suman’s delivery of some iconic lines from the book, or Danielle Galligan’s mercurial shifts between flirty and heartbroken. But ultimately, I want to state thatrushes through the plot points of the original trilogy—almost as if it’s eager to be rid of Alina’s story—and have set up the Crows and Nikolai to take center stage in the third season, should one be announced.
