“Readers will be wowed." –Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Wealth. Power. Murder. Magic. The Ivy League is going straight to hell in the sequel to the smash New York Times bestseller Ninth House from #1 bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.
"Bardugo’s imaginative reach is brilliant." –Stephen King
A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2023 by The New York Times, The Week, Kirkus Reviews, PopSugar, Distractify, Booklist Queen, The Nerd Daily, and more!!
Find a gateway to the underworld. Steal a soul out of hell. A simple plan, except people who make this particular journey rarely come back. But Galaxy “Alex” Stern is determined to break Darlington out of purgatory—even if it costs her a future at Lethe and at Yale.
Forbidden from attempting a rescue, Alex and Dawes can’t call on the Ninth House for help, so they assemble a team of dubious allies to save the gentleman of Lethe. Together, they will have to navigate a maze of arcane texts and bizarre artifacts to uncover the societies’ most closely guarded secrets, and break every rule doing it. But when faculty members begin to die off, Alex knows these aren’t just accidents. Something deadly is at work in New Haven, and if she is going to survive, she’ll have to reckon with the monsters of her past and a darkness built into the university’s very walls.
Thick with history and packed with Bardugo’s signature twists, Hell Bent brings to life an intricate world full of magic, violence, and all too real monsters.

Everyone needs a Dawes. Helps you with spells and conjuring AND makes dinner afterwards.

Honestly, it’s between a 3.5 - 4 stars for me. However, I do want to see where the series takes Galaxy Stern and her hodgepodge of misfit friends in future books, so I feel it would realistically be a 3.75 stars. Anyways, I waited patiently for this book to come out, because I had enjoyed the first one a lot. This one definitely had some twist and turns. I probably should have re-read the first book in the series before reading this book, because I forgot a lot of the plot line and a refresher would have been nice. After all, I read the first one in the early days of the pandemic - and boy was that a long time ago.

Sophomore slump who? This was excellent. I loved every little twist. Well-written, relatable, darkly funny, just delightful. Give us book 3 right meow.

I have been waiting for this since about three days after Ninth House was released. When I started reading, I had forgotten enough that I then need to reread Ninth House first. I felt like I was never going to get to finish this story. Now I’m so grateful that there’s more and that I get to feel that way a little longer. This is one of my all time favorite series. Well written, amazing characters and perfection in the form of world building. Read this and be grateful that it’s not over yet.
