My Review: (4.25)⭐⭐⭐⭐
Badass energy till the last page!
Throne of Glass is a fantastically twisted story that grabs ahold and takes you along for the ride! I’ve lingered on this series for years, waiting for the right moment and time I could return and commit to fully appreciating it. Absolutely worth the long wait and definitely worth the escape from reality.
It’s a rapid page turner, theirs a badass female assassin named Celaena, royalty, magic and a world so richly detailed it could be the next big thing adapted into movies, television series and more.
Guys, what a wonderful hype book to what you already know is going to be an absolutely phenomenal series! I’ve waited to return to reviewing exactly for this quality of writing and mastery of a perfectly executed fantasy romance novel. Celaena has guts, and an untamed fire inside her, she doesn't back down from challenges, and she's got such a catastrophically dark, mysterious, and fascinating background that's just shrouded in questions and imminent intrigue...
It’s seriously so captivating I finished the book in three short days (it's over 400+pages), scoop it as your next big series read! Zero regrets, badass heroine who holds nothing back, Sarah J. Maas is a seriously impressive writer with true artistry. This is the first in a seven-part series, and there is also a prequel so plenty of already established storytelling to keep everyone busy well into the late hours of the night or early beginnings of the day.
Synopsis:
Celaena Sardothien is a trained assassin who’s forced into servitude by an egregiously evil King. Magic has been leeched from all the lands, kingdoms have been left to ruins, people slaughtered, and it’s up to the trigger ready assassin Celaena to stand up and fight to win her freedom. She’s offered an opportunity to enter in a competition to be Champion to the Crown Prince under a guise to free herself from her oppressive life, but when her competitors start getting taken out she finds there are more sinister workings going on in the Castle made of glass and she needs to remain vigilant and win despite the dire circumstances that threaten to expose her true identity and corrupt her only chance to gain true freedom. Winning comes at a cost, but losing isn't an option...
Advisory:
Be advised, this book isn’t for young children its content is 16+ as it contains, language, violence, and detailed gore. It’s YA but leans on the darker side of the spectrum.
Overall feelings: Buy it immediately! It’s worth getting in paperback for the beautiful artwork and definitely a book in a series that deserves many return visits.
