Beautiful。 Deadly。 Destined for greatness。

In the dark， filthy salt mines of Endovier， an eighteen-year-old girl is serving a life sentence。 She is a trained assassin， the best of her kind， but she made a fatal mistake: she got caught。

The “Throne of Glass” series by Sarah J。 Maas is immensely popular。 The series， “Throne of Glass” is the first book， has sold over 12 million copies。 So I had to read it！But did I like it？ I liked the idea of it。 But I don’t think I’m the intended YA reading audience。 The story features a strong woman main character who has a unique skill set- she’s the world best assassin for hire。 She is skilled， yet still feminine with a jaunty sense of humor。 She lives in a world created by the author。 A wor The “Throne of Glass” series by Sarah J。 Maas is immensely popular。 The series， “Throne of Glass” is the first book， has sold over 12 million copies。 So I had to read it！But did I like it？ I liked the idea of it。 But I don’t think I’m the intended YA reading audience。 The story features a strong woman main character who has a unique skill set- she’s the world best assassin for hire。 She is skilled， yet still feminine with a jaunty sense of humor。 She lives in a world created by the author。 A world where magic is banned， but connections to the past continue。 She is in a contest at The Glass Castle to become the King’s Champion。 And someone is killing off the other contestants。 There are some other interesting characters in the book- the Prince， The Head Guard， and a princess from another country。 I recommend this book to my younger friends！ 。。。more

Another amazing book by Maas。 Absolutely loved it。 I think Celaena is my absolute favourite heroine of all time。 What I loved about her character was her strong personality。 She's with her own flaws yet she's strong， arrogant and fearless。 The writing style is simply beautiful。 The fighting scenes were so detailed and very enjoyable。 It was intense and I felt like I was watching it live。 I liked the mixture of medieval and modern world。 The fantasy aspect of the story is brilliantly mixed with f Another amazing book by Maas。 Absolutely loved it。 I think Celaena is my absolute favourite heroine of all time。 What I loved about her character was her strong personality。 She's with her own flaws yet she's strong， arrogant and fearless。 The writing style is simply beautiful。 The fighting scenes were so detailed and very enjoyable。 It was intense and I felt like I was watching it live。 I liked the mixture of medieval and modern world。 The fantasy aspect of the story is brilliantly mixed with forbidden magic and portals。 I can not wait to read the Crown of Midnight in this series and to see where Celaena Sardothien's journey will take her。 。。。more

Sarah J Maas is so talented。 I was instantly captivated by this story！ Her writing is incredible。 This story is exactly what Ive been wanting to read and I can’t wait to read the rest！ I’ll definitely read anything Sarah writes。 I loved the world building， and I love everything about Celaena。 She’s a badass but still feminine and I’m obsessed with her。

After finishing all of the current ACOTAR books and House of Earth and Blood， I finally decided to give Sarah J Maas’ first wildly popular series a shot。 My reaction？ I liked it a lot！ To be clear， there is definitely a difference between Sarah’s writing in Throne of Glass and A Court of Silver Flames which is expected！ Despite of that， I still enjoyed ToG。 I loved the world building here more than Crescent City and maybe even ACOTAR。 I’m always such a fan of portal magic so I loved that part of After finishing all of the current ACOTAR books and House of Earth and Blood， I finally decided to give Sarah J Maas’ first wildly popular series a shot。 My reaction？ I liked it a lot！ To be clear， there is definitely a difference between Sarah’s writing in Throne of Glass and A Court of Silver Flames which is expected！ Despite of that， I still enjoyed ToG。 I loved the world building here more than Crescent City and maybe even ACOTAR。 I’m always such a fan of portal magic so I loved that part of the book。 I also appreciate how Celaena was not foul mouthed。 She was cocky and quite over confident but not foul mouthed。 If this book was written after Crescent City then I’m sure she would have a stronger adult language。 I was not a fan of Bryce’s foul mouth and attitude towards others; i liked Celaena’s attitude more。 The one thing i did not like here is the awkward love triangle。 I hope that goes away。 Looking forward to the next books in the series！ 。。。more

3。5/5The exclamation points killed me。 Overall， I really enjoyed it but maybe it was not for me。

Omg it was SO good！！！😭❤️😱🤯

Brooke ，

Easy read and great story！ Her characters are just as developed as her plot。 I love the way Maas writes。 Mass does a great job making Selena a badass with inner turmoil， without out making her whiney。 Can’t wait to read the rest。

Read in one dayThe story is very interesting。 Knowing it's a full series I can see where it can go in so many directions。 I felt I needed to know what was happening so I read late at night and scared myself。 It was great and I'm already in love with these characters。 Read in one dayThe story is very interesting。 Knowing it's a full series I can see where it can go in so many directions。 I felt I needed to know what was happening so I read late at night and scared myself。 It was great and I'm already in love with these characters。 。。。more

It seems like everyone and their aunt has read （and loved） this series， so when one of my best friends gave me all her books to read， I was very much looking forward to it。 This first one， though， wasn't quite what I imagined。 The protagonist comes across a bit Mary-Sue-ish: at only 18， she's better than anyone else， accomplishes anything she sets out to do， and is loved by everyone。 In the second half， she's equipped with some endearing quirks， and the intriguing story makes up for a lot， and I It seems like everyone and their aunt has read （and loved） this series， so when one of my best friends gave me all her books to read， I was very much looking forward to it。 This first one， though， wasn't quite what I imagined。 The protagonist comes across a bit Mary-Sue-ish: at only 18， she's better than anyone else， accomplishes anything she sets out to do， and is loved by everyone。 In the second half， she's equipped with some endearing quirks， and the intriguing story makes up for a lot， and I already heard that the series is getting better as it goes， which is why I still enjoyed reading this as a set up to a hopefully more captivating book 2 （and so on。。。）。 。。。more

I own this book。 I have owned this book for a shocking amount of time and I have always put off reading it。 I'm not sure why， but it just always seemed intimidating， I mean people really really have strong opinions about this series and the author。 Basically， this book follows Celaena， an assassin。 Potentially the most notorious assassin in the land。 But she was caught and is due to be living out the remainder of her days in a death camp as a miner。 That is until the Crown Prince and the Capta I own this book。 I have owned this book for a shocking amount of time and I have always put off reading it。 I'm not sure why， but it just always seemed intimidating， I mean people really really have strong opinions about this series and the author。 Basically， this book follows Celaena， an assassin。 Potentially the most notorious assassin in the land。 But she was caught and is due to be living out the remainder of her days in a death camp as a miner。 That is until the Crown Prince and the Captain of the Royal Guard come to her and offer her an exchange。 Her freedom， in four years， if she competes and is successful in becoming the Kings Champion。 Champion to a king she hates or rot away in a death camp？ Of course she takes the former。 Keeping her identity a secret， she works at becoming the best under the watchful eyes of Dorian and Choal but there is something darker at play， and her competitors are starting to show up dead in gruesome ways。 This story ties in a lot of points。 Fae， magic， ancient religion， curses and so on。 It was interesting， detailed enough to keep me hooked but missing enough to keep me interested。 I found Celaena a bit tedious at points， and the writing to be a little blunt but the overall story was really interesting。 I love both Dorian and Choal and I would continue on with this series in the future。 。。。more

Fantastic。 I do not like the author but amazing book。 I love this world and Dorian。 Top three book boyfriends。 Celaena/Aelin is an assassin。 There are Fae， royalty and so many good characters。

Long and kind of boring。 Not what I was hoping for。

It was just so good how it all happened how you got little pieces of information and worked it out How you was shocked by some things and some you could tell it would happen cause of the personality of the character

Der Auftakt der Reihe fand ich richtig gut。 Der Einstieg in die Geschichte fiel mir sehr leicht und konnte mich sofort mitreißen。 Zu Beginn wird man in die neue Welt eingeführt und lernt die vielen facettenreichen Charaktere kennen。 Es hat etwas gedauert bis ich mir alle Namen und Orte merken konnte。 Mir persönlich haben in dem ersten Teil die magischen Elemente etwas gefehlt。 Allerdings kann ich mir gut vorstellen， dass die Magie in den nächsten Bänden definitiv nicht zu kurz kommt。 Die Geschic Der Auftakt der Reihe fand ich richtig gut。 Der Einstieg in die Geschichte fiel mir sehr leicht und konnte mich sofort mitreißen。 Zu Beginn wird man in die neue Welt eingeführt und lernt die vielen facettenreichen Charaktere kennen。 Es hat etwas gedauert bis ich mir alle Namen und Orte merken konnte。 Mir persönlich haben in dem ersten Teil die magischen Elemente etwas gefehlt。 Allerdings kann ich mir gut vorstellen， dass die Magie in den nächsten Bänden definitiv nicht zu kurz kommt。 Die Geschichte wurde von Seite zu Seite besser und spannender。 Es passieren viele unerwartete Dinge。 Ich habe verschiedene Theorien aufgestellt und wieder verworfen und wurde am Ende sehr überrascht。Die Charaktere fand ich sehr interessant und toll ausgearbeitet。 Jede Figur hat eine einzigartige und besondere Persönlichkeit。 Celaena ist eine starke， mutige， junge Frau。 Zwar ist sie die beste und gefürchtetste Assassinin im ganzen Reich， doch sie hat auch eine weiche und verletzliche Seite。Dorian wirkte sehr oberflächlich und konnte mich leider nicht ganz überzeugen。🙈Chaol ist sehr verschlossen， griesgrämig und zeigt seine Gefühle eher selten。 Im Laufe der Geschichte wurde klar， dass hinter seiner harten Schale ein ziemlich weicher Kern steckt。 Ich mochte ihn sehr。Durch den Perspektivenwechsel konnte man die Charaktere noch besser kennenlernen。Sarah J。 Maas hat einen wahnsinnig tollen， bildhaften und fesselnden Schreibstil。 Mir gefällt die Welt， die sie erschaffen hat， unglaublich gut und ich freue mich schon riesig auf die weiteren Bände！ 。。。more

Abigail Ommen （Buckley） ，

2。5。 Great premise， poor execution。 I’ve heard the sequels are much better， so I powered through。

Paige Garratt ，

Pretty enjoyable story， but the writing left a lot to be desired。 The author reminding us every couple pages that Celaena is an assassin， because she wasn’t doing assassin things for a while， got very old。 And many of the plot points were quite obvious。 Still， the final battle scene and the relationships between Celaena and her friends were well done。

Cristina Azul ，

Me hubiese gustado ver más acción y más acerca de las pruebas que fueron bien aburridas sin nada de acción。 Todo el libro recordando que era la mejor asesina pero nada que mataba jajaja。 Chaol pobre！ Yo quería que estuviera con Celaena。 Él es tan lindo。
