the B&N edition of Ruin and Rising by @LBardugo comes with a DARKLING PREQUEL STORY

Hm. I'm glad Leigh didn't romanticize the Darkling. At least she made it clear he was still a barking psychopath and anything else is left to the discretion of the reader. Myself, I find a total deficit of sympathy for him.
The ending... titch confusing--yet fairy-tale-ish and fitting!
I agree about the ending. And that's totally true about the Darkling. She didn't give him a 180 personality change. He's still mad.

Mad, yes. They make it like he's just falling deeper into madness, which I liked.
