Critics Consensus

Shadow and Bone's sophomore season packs in too much story sinew to properly breathe, but this adventure remains great fun for fantasy fans.

Overall, season two has all of the tenets of a high fantasy adventure including a beautiful world to play in and themes of love, fate, and choice to explore.

This season is supersized: more characters, more settings, more plot, more danger, and more fighting.

Rated: B

Fortunately, it’s silly enough that you can ignore most of it and just enjoy the ride.

Rated: 3/5

Q+ Magazine

While the show remains entertaining and remarkably true to the spirit of all sets of characters old and new, narratively, this season can only be described as heavily overstuffed.

The Mary Sue

Shadow and Bone season 2 has all the best things about fantasy: magical creatures, a super-scary villain, assassins, frenemies forced to work together, secret identities, and more. Unfortunately, the pacing leaves much to be desired.

Marvelous Geeks Media

Shadow and Bone Season 2 considerably improves through its visual effects, a brand-new brilliant score by Joseph Trapanese, and significant moments of vulnerability.

The second season was extreemly boring, the character unlikeable and the changes to the story from the book ruin it. One of the worst season made from a book series ever.

Representation matters and the Six of Crows are fair proof of that. Alina's complicated relationship is very well portrait, and the end!! Such a cliffhanger!!

It shouldn’t ended season two Netflix canceled another good show because they only care about views and money and this is why Netflix is going to fail once strange things is over someone should bring back shadow and bone with a different name because it ended too quick and it left a lot of plot holes I hope another streaming platform picks this up because I feel like now I this has more newer fans so it will go well also I miss Wylan the actor was spot on and that’s another reason why they should bring this back F you Netflix
