Summary

See the Grishaverse come to life on screen with the Netflix series, Shadow and Bone—Season 2 premiering March 16, 2023! As seen in the show, bring home a piece of the Grishaverse with this artifact from the world.

Dive into the epic world of international bestselling author Leigh Bardugo with this beautifully illustrated replica of The Lives of Saints, the Istorii Sankt’ya, featuring tales of saints drawn from the beloved novels and beyond. Out of the pages of the Shadow and Bone trilogy, from the hands of Alina Starkov to yours, the Istorii Sankt’ya is a magical keepsake from the Grishaverse.

These tales include miracles and martyrdoms from familiar saints like Sankta Lizabeta of the Roses and Sankt Ilya in Chains, to the strange and obscure stories of Sankta Ursula, Sankta Maradi, and the Starless Saint.

As seen on screen in the Netflix series, this beautiful collection includes stunning full-color illustrations of each story.

Critic reviews

“The journey to sainthood for these colorful characters ranges from unjustly tragic...to humorously improbable...with enchanting, full-color illustrations that evoke medieval books of hours.” (Kirkus)

Book vs Audiobook

I have not yet listened to this audiobook but I have a copy of the physical book and have to say that the wonderful illustrations are what makes this a worthwhile publication; I do not know if a pdf has been included with this purchase but I can't imagine that a pdf would do the pictures much justice.

very short non-stories

seems to be footnotes that have been sold as book, not interesting or worth listening
