    9/10
    Amazing!
    This has to be the best so far in netflix this year. The acting, cinematography is great which makes you give 9/10 rating atleast to this show. Ben Barnes is an amazing actor. He gave a wonderful performance as a villian in The Punisher and now in Shadow and bone as well. I am also looking forward to finish the book series of shadow and bone. Can't wait for season 2!
