I have not read the books. However, I would not have bought the box set if I had known that each book would have a Netflix ad on it that I could not get off.

This is a favorite series of mine, so I wanted to own the box set. I DID NOT WANT THE BIG NETFLIX ADVERTISEMENT. The whole reason I remembered to buy the series again is because of the preview for Netflix. So they ruin the aesthetic value of these books with an obnoxious printed on, not even a sticker, ad. Highly disappointed.
And I see other people's images with no ad!? Where can I get the Netflixless books??

5 Stars for how nice the books are and how nicely packaged they are. Nice Poster!
Shadow & Bone: 3.4 out of 5 stars.
Siege & Storm: 3.6 out of 5 stars
Ruin & Rising: 3.2 out of 5 stars.
I thought this trilogy was a good time. Great world building, good characters, cool magic system/abilities. I recommend this trilogy. Especially if you plan on reading Six of Crows which was amazing. Sets the world up nicely. The ending to this trilogy was satisfying enough.
What I didnt like:
The main character Alina is pretty weak and almost useless through the entire trilogy. Despite having this "epic" ability she never really does anything with it. Someone always has to save the day, every single time. It got frustrating by book 3.
Be ready for a Deus Ex Machina to save the main characters EVERY TIME they are in a hopeless situation, some random person or event saves them and it was always predictable.
The Villain was very strong but chose the dumbest way to accomplish his goals. Someone so powerful could have come up with atleast 3 other solutions that were better than what he tried to do.
I wish this was a Duology instead of a trilogy. A little more action in each book would have helped.

Shadow and Bone features all the standard tropes of bad YA: it's got a supposedly plain-Jane-but-super-powerful gullible protagonist, a ridiculously well-written villain, and a convenient love triangle to boot. Despite all this, the story WORKED. And I am so glad I kept reading to Book 2, because that's when things get INSANELY good. Book 3 is spectacular in this regard as well. I devoured these books over 4 very manic days, and I don't regret it one bit. Definitely consider buying this trilogy if you're looking for a dark yet entertaining foray into younger-themed fantasy. The box set is nice for a collector's item, but the box itself arrived slightly damaged in my case -- fortunately the books within were perfectly intact.
A note about the books received in this version - definitely consider investing in this boxed set because each of the books has a little bonus story/POV chapter. It's also got a few pages of author interviews and discussion questions (which I didn't find very helpful since the discussion points seemed a little like school assignments). But the bonus chapter/snippet at the end of each book was amazing and really appreciated. The covers are also really pretty, worthy of collectors items except for the ugly (permanent) Netflix stickers that are always seen on these soon-to-be Netflix series books. I must really commend the book art designer though as these covers were stunning aside from the Netflix promotion!

Chegou muito bem embalado, em perfeito estado. A caixa do box é bem resistente, as folhas tem uma boa qualidade.
Mas o mais incrível e legal são os conteúdos extras que os 3 livros contém.
Meu único desagrado é esse selo da Netflix na capa que n dá pra retirar , de resto o box é maravilhoso, tudo o que eu queria.
Amei as capas, amei a história e não me chamem de louça mas amei Darkling

So be aware there is quite likely some damage to the covers if it was a machinery issue.
