This post is for anyone who is feeling a little lost in all the world building after watching the first episode of the Netflix show, for fans of the book who are wondering how the show combined the Shadow & Bone trilogy and Six of Crows duology, and for new fans who are discovering the Grishaverse through the Netflix show and are now wondering where to start with the books.
The fandom is huge and there are so many resources out there, but there are also lots of spoilers, which can make them hard to browse through. So I’m here to give you a quick rundown to get you started, with spoilers from the first episode of the Netflix show but spoiler-free otherwise. I tried to only hit the questions that seem to always come up—nothing too deep—so feel free to ask any questions you have left!
