In their very first scene together, we learn that Kaz is still in the process of paying off Inej’s debt to the Menagerie, a brothel where Inej was indentured against her will after being kidnapped by slavers. It later comes to light that the scenes in Ketterdam take place two weeks after Alina has been revealed as a Sun Summoner while crossing the Fold. It’s there that we meet Kaz, the leader of a gang called the Crows (known in the books as the Dregs), and his two most trusted accomplices, Inej and Jesper. Instead of focusing solely on Alina, Mal and General Kirigan (Ben Barnes), known in the books as the Darkling, the show’s narrative switches back and forth between storylines until they finally converge.Īround 10 minutes into the first episode, viewers are transported to Ketterdam, a bustling port city on the island nation of Kerch that’s known for its dark underbelly of crime and corruption. While both the Six of Crows and King of Scars books take place following the events of the Shadow and Bone trilogy, the Netflix series thrusts some of the most popular Six of Crows characters, including criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker (Freddy Carter), acrobat-spy Inej Ghafa (Amita Suman) and sharpshooter Jesper Fahey (Kit Young), into the Shadow and Bone action.
