It's one, with six cars on the road, instead of six lanes or six exits or merging areas or something. However, not so! Since the six characters in Six of Crows are basically always with each other (once they're gathered), it's not like there are six plots happening. I know what you all are thinking - SIX characters?! Six perspectives?! Third person, which is cool, but SIX?! Sounds like a recipe for disaster, like in Legacy of Kings by Eleanor Herman. Wylan is seen as weak, but he proves himself to be quite clever and useful. Lastly is Wylan, the son of the merchant who wants the thing from the Ice Court brought back. Lucky for himself, he is from the area that the Ice Court is located, so he is useful to Kaz, and Kaz springs him. He used to hunt Grisha before he was thrown in prison, but he especially wants to strangle Nina because she is the one who put him in prison. Matthias is the fifth person, a convict who is out for Nina's blood. Next is Nina, a Healer/Heartrender, who has been trying to have her former friend Matthias freed from prison for years. He is all about his guns, whereas Inej is all about her knives. The same with Jesper - he's worked with Kaz for years, and is basically Kaz's second-in-command. Kaz saved her years ago, and she has worked with him since. The other characters are equally as interesting! Inej is the Wraith, able to move basically without being heard.
