What this book is about
The heist in Six of Crows did not go as planned. Kaz Brekker and his crew are back in Ketterdam, burned by Van Eck, and Kaz has a plan that is more elaborate, more dangerous, and more personal than anything he's done before. Crooked Kingdom is the conclusion of the duology—bigger stakes, more casualties, and the emotional payoffs the first book built toward.
