Do you understand?” Alina tells Tolya as they leave the remnants of the Fold. Miraculously, Tamar and Tolya are able to revive Mal, due to their combined badass Heartrender powers and also the fact that Mal is one resilient motherfucker.īut mechanics of defeating the Darkling and vanquishing the Fold aside, the biggest difference is that in the books, Mal and Alina fake their deaths. As he dies, he asks that Alina not give him a grave so that no one will desecrate it, and then asks her to say his name one last time.
That means he is the only Grisha in the world with such immense powers.īecause they are no longer bound by their psychic power link, Alina grabs the same blade she just used to kill Mal and stabs the Darkling. Not just because the Fold is gone, but because Alina no longer has the ability to summon light. With thousands of people now shooting light like disco balls, the Fold crumbles and the Darkling is really upset.
Suddenly, everyone around her bursts into light, and Alina realizes that the final amplifier multiplies the Sun Summoner’s power by thousands - literally, it multiplies itself into thousands of people all around her. However, instead of the power surging into her, she loses her powers. And she does, but unlike in the show, he’s not already dying when she does so. In the books, Alina and Mal go into the Fold, but the Darkling finds them and they don’t have a chance to execute their plan. But when it comes to Shadow and Bone, that ending was a wild departure from what happened in the books. In order to cover all that ground, some plot points have been dropped, others skimmed over, and some reconfigured for screen.Īny adaptation of a book won’t be entirely faithful to the page. If you just finished season 2 of Netflix’s Shadow and Bone, you might be thinking to yourself, Holy shitballs, that was a LOT.Īnd it was, indeed, a lot! Unlike the first season, which mainly covered events from the first book of Leigh Bardugo’s fantasy trilogy, the second season finishes up the trilogy and adds some extra plotlines for the other characters.
