See the Grishaverse come to life on screen with the Netflix series, Shadow and Bone -- Season 2 streaming now!

Trace the roots of Grisha power and discover this deliciously atmospheric, fully-illustrated collection of Grishaverse fairy tales filled with betrayals, revenge, sacrifice, and love.

Enter the Grishaverse...

Love speaks in flowers. Truth requires thorns.

Travel to a world of dark bargains struck by moonlight, of haunted towns and hungry woods, of talking beasts and gingerbread golems, where a young mermaid's voice can summon deadly storms and where a river might do a lovestruck boy's bidding but only for a terrible price.

Perfect for new readers and dedicated fans, the tales in The Language of Thorns will transport you to lands both familiar and strange--to a fully realized world of dangerous magic that millions have visited through the novels of the Grishaverse.

This collection of six stories includes three brand-new tales, each of them lavishly illustrated and culminating in stunning full-spread illustrations as rich in detail as the stories themselves.

Moisture and good price in one place
Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Professional Massage Cream, Almond, 15 oz.
This was a household must have for my partner who used nothing but the Helen coco butter hand creams. Oh yes, I had to use some occasionally as well. It is soft on the skin, has a long lasting moisture, he would use it right after washing his hands to get that softness locked in. There is no strong scent so is perfect for people who wants a good hand cream but not that loud scent. I used it all over my body for a all day moisture and shine. I used it in places that don't see the sun often but still needs much love and kindness too. The fun this about this product is they have various sizes so we have one in the car, one in my hand bag and they have the family size that the kids can use. I recommend that you stock up on these.
