Shadow & Bone: Destinies Game Releasing on Netflix - The Mary Sue

One of Netflix's 2021 breakout hits was the popular adaptation of Leigh Bardugo's novels set within the Grishaverse, Shadow & Bone. Currently, the Grishaverse sits at nine, going on ten books. These published novels include the Shadow & Bone trilogy, the Six of Crows duology, King of Scars duology, and two standalone novels, The Language of Thrones and The Lives of Saints. Netflix's adaptation of Shadow & Bone proved a major surprise to readers as it started the series with characters from both Shadow & Bone and Six of Crows.

Last week, on Day 5 of Netflix's Geeked Week, the media company announced a new expansion into this world. Now, you can make the choices yourself through a Shadow & Bone video game! Shadow and Bone: Destinies is a single-player, narrative role-playing game where you travel the Grishaverse. Developed by Chimera Entertainment, the game will be available, upon its release, via the Netflix app on iOS and Android.

In the game, you'll be able to collect items and abilities and build a party of travelers. On the Tudum announcement post, Netflix teases, "No word yet on whether you'll be able to gamble at the Crow Club."

In addition to Destinies announcement, Shadow & Bone season two wrapped in Budapest, Hungary at the start of June. So, I'd guess that this means that we'll be getting season two early next year. While there was no high-resolution imagery from the game shared officially by Netflix, you could see a few bits of the interface in the live stream. This rogue RPG game footage will probably be released alongside, or soon after, season two of the show.

There's also Bardugo's tenth Grishaverse novel and the first graphic novel set in this world coming this fall. Demon in the Wood will serve as a prequel novel to the show and release on September 27.

The 10 best romance novels of 2022 - The Washington Post

Image
Romance, more than any other genre, is one that readers come to when they need hope. The genre affirms the belief that anyone — no matter who they are — can find not only love but also a Happily Ever After. In the past couple of years that feeling, that promise, has felt more necessary than ever. For me, this year has been a reminder that the personal is always political, and I've found myself reaching for romances with protagonists who are not only looking for that glorious HEA but also healing, showing up for their communities, being courageous enough to fight for justice and striving to live authentically. 'You Made a Fool of Death With Your Beauty,' by Akwaeke Emezi Return to menu Feyi's connection to celebrity chef Alim is instant and undeniable. After five years grieving the loss of her husband, Feyi feels ready to live again. But things for our would-be lovers are far from simple. Alim is the father of the man Feyi is dating, and if their feelings ever come out, ...

Bag Of Bones Is Stephen King's Horniest Book [The Losers' Club Podcast] - Bloody Disgusting

Image
Tough times for the Losers. Writer's block is never easy and the Club has decided to nurse their creative woes with a quick cabin trip to Dark Score Lake. (Some locals have been known to call it "Sara Laughs.") Rest assured, this will get ugly. Published in 1998 on the day after the author's 51st birthday, Stephen King 's Bag Of Bones is many things: Gothic ghost story, queasy romance, legal thriller, meditation on grief, and a ghastly reminder that the sins of the father are to be laid upon the children. It's also horny. Really horny. Join Losers Randall Colburn, Mel Kassel, Dan Pfleegor, and Ana Marie Cox as they shack up in Sara Laughs for a sprawling, two-part discussion of the novel's tumultuous publication history, its potent scares, and its protagonist, Mike Noonan, who King describes as "probably as close as you could get to me." Throughout it all, one question perseveres… "Was this King's mid-life crisis book?" F...
