Out of the Shadow and Bone Trilogy, from the hands of Alina Starkov to yours, the Istorii Sankt’ya is fully realized for the first time. 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. This enthralling collection includes a bonus PDF of stunning full-color illustrations of each story.

Leigh Bardugo is a number one New York Times best-selling author of fantasy novels and the creator of the Grishaverse, which spans the Shadow and Bone Trilogy, the Six of Crows Duology, The Language of Thorns, and the King of Scars Duology.

A Must-read

Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2021

This is hauntingly captivating. These stories are screepy and a tad frightening and their dark lives and ends will pull upon your heartstrings. Leigh Bardugo is a masterful storytelling genius.

As superstitious beliefs and villainish folk rush to persecute the saints you'll find that you simply can't set this beautiful book aside. These are dark but so beautifully written. I loved adding more to the Grishaverse universe and gaining a better understanding of some of my favorite character's beliefs. This is filled with heroes and monster.

This is a must-read for any Grishaverse fan! The inside artwork is spectacular! This is a quick read that you won't be forgetting. I imagine that it'll be invaluable as you navigate the Grishaverse and all of it's gloriousness.

A lovely easter egg hunt

Holy crap this book was amazing. Definitely added a huge layer of depth to the Grishaverse and I love it. Definitely something to read after the first 5 books, since it has slight spoilers in it. But nevertheless it's amazing.

Fun companion

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2021

I wanted to listen to this because Ben Barnes does the narration but I also wanted to read the hardcover because of the illustration, so instead of forcing myself to choose I did both at the same time and excellent life choice. This was a fun little companion to the Grisha world.

lovely art and occasionally tragic stories

THE LIVES OF SAINTS is a beautiful book that brings a fantasy world to life, adding a richness to the series written by Leigh Bardugo, and makes for a dazzling decorative piece for the casual passerby while providing an inspiring piece of myth and intrigue for the dedicated reader. I must applaud Bardugo and her team on managing to turn what was once a simple YA Fantasy trilogy into a growing empire.

Nice addition to the Grishaverse

Very nice addition to the Grishaverse giving additional background to the Saints. I recommend this to be read after King of Scars, though as it will make far more sense. :)

Not the author’s fault, but I was searching for “Lives of THE Saints” and was shocked to find this was a fantasy book. Live and learn — read carefully before buying!

No Merch Included

I was supposed to get a sticker with this book bc I pre ordered it but when I got the delivery there was no sticker included. I assumed that it will come later after a few days but It’s been more than a week and I still haven’t gotten the sticker delivered. I’m not sure if I’m the only one who had that experience.

Maravilhoso

Reviewed in Brazil on December 29, 2020

Este livro é perfeitamente o que ele precisa ser. Conta as histórias de santos diferentes da religião de Ravka, Kerch e outras pessoas pelo mundo Grisha, e elas são como eu esperava: inteligentes, mágicas e nem sempre com finais felizes! Como eu já conhecia a história da Alina e do Darkling, gostei de ver lendas sobre os dois que não faziam parte da trilogia Sombra e Osso.

A edição é simplesmente maravilhosa, as ilustrações são incríveis e este é de longe o livro mais bonito da minha estante! Definitivamente um volume para colecionadores e apaixonados pelo universo Grisha (como eu!).

Easily the best part of this book was the illustrations. They were beautiful and there were loads of them and I loved that.
Aside from that, this was a quick and easy read providing some background into the wider Grishaverse and it was fun to read and recognise some of the Saints and their stories. There was nothing particularly special about any of the stories - most of them were only 3 or 4 pages so there wasn't much depth - but I am glad I read this as a fan of the world they come from.

Story around a camp fire

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 7, 2020

Verified Purchase

When I saw this book was coming out I was excited to read about the saints that had made up some of the belief system in Grishaverse.

The art work is stunning don't get me wrong, but the stories meh! It's like a camp fire story time. The stories are short and don't really have much depth, if I compare to the language of thorns which was a collection of grishaverse short stories, language of thorns would win.

One for the fans.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 28, 2021

I'm a big fan of the Grishaverse books and this is not part of the series, rather a "facsimile" of a fictional book that Alina Starkov is given in the first novel. It has nothing to do with real world saints, but is rather an exploration of the theology that Leigh Bardugo created for her universe. As such, there is very little in this for newcomers to The Grishaverse, but if, like me, you are already a fan and want to read the stories that are supposed to be familiar to your favourite characters, it's a good addition to your Grishaverse collection. Each tale is concise and beautifully illustrated.
