In Shadow and Bone when Inej is practicing her act, is there an error in the TV show? - Contemporary room interior with furniture and TV set

Shadow and Bone finishes 2 years before the Six of Crows series starts (I am not sure how long S&B is), so the Crows are 14-15 during the TV show, assuming that the continuity is unchanged (which is likely, considering that Leigh Bardugo was involved in the production). The show seems to forget that numerous times, most blatantly when Inej says the following while practicing her acrobatic act:

I haven't done this since I was fourteen

She was around 14 during those events.

So my question is: Is that a plot hole, or am I missing something really blatant?



Best Answer

The TV show has significantly altered the timelines from the books. You can no longer assume the Crows timeline follows 2 years after the Sun Summoner timeline, and therefore work out that they should only be 14-15 years old.

When creating the show, they took aspects of the Crow storyline and merged it into Alina's story, including making the heist all about kidnapping her from the Little Palace.

Are Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows connected?

The Grishaverse is comprised of the Shadow and Bone trilogy, the Six of Crows duology, the King of Crows duology, and three supplemental books. While the primary storyline of Netflix's Shadow and Bone follows the trilogy of the same name, the show also has a subplot with the characters from the Six of Crows duology.

Can I read Six of Crows before Shadow and Bone?

My recommended order \u2014 even if you haven't watched the show \u2014 is to start with Six of Crows, which aptly entices readers into a new world, and has a cast of vivid, dynamic characters. Six of Crows does, admittedly, end on a cliffhanger, but the stakes it sets up will make the conflict in the main series even richer.

How old are the crows in Shadow and Bone?

Despite their questionable activity and penchant for danger, most of the Dregs' ranks are less than 20 years old. The group has a significant membership with a wide variety of roles, from bar service to street advertisement to armed enforcer.

Is it worth reading 6 crows?

Six Of Crows is definitely worth it! If you enjoy crime and fantasy it's a great option. In my personal opinion it was such an easy and thrilling read, it had a great diverse cast of characters and the story itself is nothing like what I've read before and the writing is beautiful written.
