We discuss the magnificent General Nazyalensky, focusing on her role in the King of Scars duology (aka: Zoya’s duology). We ask such questions as: Is it possible for someone to actually be that beautiful? Does spectacular banter a good general make? Did she really move from the anti-Alina in the original trilogy to the anti-Darkling in the second duology? And, of course: Shouldn’t we be naming our children after her?

Contains spoilers for the King of Scars duology, the Shadow and Bone trilogy, the Six of Crows duology, and Netflix’s Shadow and Bone season 1.
