Rule of Wolves

Leigh Bardugo

Book 2 of King of Scars Duology

Rule of Wolves is the second and concluding book in Leigh Bardugo's King of Scars duology, following young king Nikolai Lantsov as he fights off a Fjerdan invasion while struggling to control the dark power living inside him. The story is told across multiple perspectives, including general Zoya Nazyalensky, spy Nina Zenik, and the resurrected Darkling, weaving together war, political intrigue, and a slow-building romance across Ravka, Fjerda, and Shu Han. As the final novel of Leigh Bardugo's wider Grishaverse (at time of publication), it ties together threads from her earlier trilogies, including brief appearances from the Six of Crows cast.
