Popcorn Culture - Review: Shadow and Bone

Based on Leigh Bardugo's wildly successful books, Shadow and Bone takes us to the fantasy kingdom of Ravka, where a war has waged on, and The Shadow Fold, a darkness that separates the east and west and houses monsters. Enter Alina Starkov, an orphaned mapmaker who discovers that she may have the power to change the world. We discuss what it was like to be immersed in this story and the world of Ravka, and whether we've found a new fantasy franchise to hang our hopes on.
