Summary
Only the greatest sacrifice can turn the tide of war。
War is brewing in the fifth book of the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J。 Maas。
The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius as war looms on the horizon。 Loyalties have been broken and bought， friends have been lost and gained， and those who possess magic find themselves increasingly at odds with those who don't。
With her heart sworn to the warrior-prince by her side and her fealty pledged to the people she is determined to save， Aelin will delve into the depths of her power to protect those she loves。 But as monsters emerge from the horrors of the past， dark forces stand poised to claim her world。 The only chance for salvation lies in a desperate quest that may take more from Aelin than she has to give， a quest that forces her to choose what-and who-she's willing to sacrifice for the sake of peace。
Kingdoms collide in this fifth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series。

Did I read this in 1 night？ Yes。Was it 6am when I finished and was devastated with the ending？？ Also， yes。I loved the progression of Manon。 I never thought I’d say that from when she was introduced。 Also， the continuation of Rowan and Aelin？ 🥹😍 Can’t ship them hard enough。This may be my favorite book in the series。 Idk！ I love them all， but have been thinking about it all day， so right now， it’s up near the top！

<>"Las personas que amas son tan solo armas que se utilizarán en tu contra"<>La verdad es que cada vez me cuesta más hacer reseña de estos libros。。。ésta quinta parte es， con diferencia， de los mejores libros de la saga。 Es de extrañar que piense así porque en este libro NO sale Chaol en ningún momento pero la cantidad de giros inesperados y la continúa acción que nos proporciona la autora hace que lo pases por alto 😜。En ésta parte toma importancia el libro de historias cortas "The Assassin's Bla <>"Las personas que amas son tan solo armas que se utilizarán en tu contra"<>La verdad es que cada vez me cuesta más hacer reseña de estos libros。。。ésta quinta parte es， con diferencia， de los mejores libros de la saga。 Es de extrañar que piense así porque en este libro NO sale Chaol en ningún momento pero la cantidad de giros inesperados y la continúa acción que nos proporciona la autora hace que lo pases por alto 😜。En ésta parte toma importancia el libro de historias cortas "The Assassin's Blade"， incorporando muchos de los personajes a la historia。 El desarrollo de personajes en este libro es más que palpable y Lisandra es， sin duda， mi favorita。Respecto a las quejas que pueda tener。。。pues lo de siempre: el interés amoroso。 No me gusta， no me pegan。。。no me va el rollo de los "machos" Hada， lo siento Rowan。。。sigo sin ver justa la forma en la que la autora nos metió a éste hombre por los ojos en detrimento de otro personaje。En cuanto al final。。。。BOOM！！！！ Tengo muchas ganas de saber cómo va a terminar todo ésto。 Aún tengo que leer "Torre del Alba" y aunque ahí está mi queridisimo crush literario， voy con un poquito de miedo， ¿que nos contará Sarah J。Mass en tantas hojas sin Aelin？En fin， de momento este libro queda coronado como el mejor de la saga 👑！ 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 I think this is the best one of the bunch。 Do I care about Rowan and aelin’s romance？ No。 So what do I care about you may be asking: basically everyone else， excluding Aedion。 Lysandra， Manon， Elide and Lorcan carried this book and while I think SJM might’ve overdone it with character pairings， I appreciate most of them。 Elide and Lorcan is the best SJM couple ever and I stand by that。 Idk if I’ll ever make it to the last 2 books but I’m at least open to reading more SJM in the future。

I know i keep saying this， but this is the best part yet for me。The action， the adventure， again everything coming together from twists connected to the very first book to old legends， new creatures， companions and enemies。。。 and a bit of romanceReally loved reading this part

’But there was no such thing as a better world – no such thing as a happy end。’‘Empire of Storms’ is the first book in the ‘Throne Of Glass’ series that wasn’t a re-read for me so naturally I was highly excited to discover exactly what would happen next。 Especially given just how extreme the danger consistently is within this devastatingly brutal yet enchanting world。 Needless to say I was hooked on this novel and didn’t want to put it down。 Every moment spent lost within its pages was a delight ’But there was no such thing as a better world – no such thing as a happy end。’‘Empire of Storms’ is the first book in the ‘Throne Of Glass’ series that wasn’t a re-read for me so naturally I was highly excited to discover exactly what would happen next。 Especially given just how extreme the danger consistently is within this devastatingly brutal yet enchanting world。 Needless to say I was hooked on this novel and didn’t want to put it down。 Every moment spent lost within its pages was a delight and I can’t wait to discover exactly how this series will end。Like the previous books in the series this book is jam packed with action， adventure， danger， romance and intrigue。 There’s so much darkness and devastation yet all of the romances that you also get to watch play out sizzle with heat。 There were times， I admit， where I was left wandering is this series truly is YA due to how heated some of the scenes became。 The romance and depth of feeling behind all these pairings never ceases to amaze me though。 Every connection seems to crackle with chemistry which is a wonder to behold。There are lots of twists， turns and dramatic showdowns。 Aelin kept me on my toes， as ever， the way that her scheming mind manages to work leaving me breathless on occasion。 There were revelations that left me staggered， a dive into the past that revealed mountains of information， and many shape-shifting dynamics that left me breathless with anticipation。 So much happens in this book。 It’s awe-inspiring to watch everything continue to slot into place。 Although how this series will end I simply do not know。 This is certainly one fantasy series that keeps you in constant suspense。Oh and that ending？ How on earth did readers wait for the next two books to release after that？ Needless to say I’m itching to dive into the final （I’m writing this review after reading ‘Tower Of Dawn’ too as time got away from me） now。 Personally I think ‘Queen Of Shadows’ is still my favourite of these books to date – due mainly to the staggering number of twists， turns and some of the showdowns that I’d been waiting for – but I still adored this book regardless。 The whole of this series is undeniably a ‘must read’ for all fantasy fans。 。。。more

To be completely honest Aelin was starting to bug me mid-way through this book and I was living for the Lorcan/Elide and Manon chapters。 But my annoyance in the beginning was more than made up for with non-stop action of the last few chapters。 I did a tandem read with Tower of Dawn and I'm so glad I read them that way！ Bring on Kingdom of Ash。 To be completely honest Aelin was starting to bug me mid-way through this book and I was living for the Lorcan/Elide and Manon chapters。 But my annoyance in the beginning was more than made up for with non-stop action of the last few chapters。 I did a tandem read with Tower of Dawn and I'm so glad I read them that way！ Bring on Kingdom of Ash。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 because i only have KoA left to read （i’m skipping ToD， what can i say） i want to list out some PROS AND CONS to this series。just gonna say that i am enjoying it， it’s not a bad series。 i have still read the whole thing and developed an attachment to it and would recommend it， but there are a lot of things i don’t like。 PROS:1。 powerful moments and quotes that really emphasize important parts of the story。“‘the world，’ aelin said， ‘will be saved and remade by the dreamers’”“for wesley。 for sam。 because i only have KoA left to read （i’m skipping ToD， what can i say） i want to list out some PROS AND CONS to this series。just gonna say that i am enjoying it， it’s not a bad series。 i have still read the whole thing and developed an attachment to it and would recommend it， but there are a lot of things i don’t like。 PROS:1。 powerful moments and quotes that really emphasize important parts of the story。“‘the world，’ aelin said， ‘will be saved and remade by the dreamers’”“for wesley。 for sam。 for aelin。 and for herself。 for the child she’d been， for the seventeen-year-old on her bidding night， for the woman she’d become， her heart in shreds， her invisible wound still bleeding。”“kaltain smiled， and at last burned herself into ash on a phantom wind”this is the strongest part of the series in my opinion， and what makes me really enjoy it。 the whole series feels powerful， and makes the reader attached to these characters。this also includes character backstories 2。 good use of recurring phrases （i will not be afraid; to whatever end; rattle the stars; nameless is my price） that become hard hitting in the books and in general from knowing context （kind of draws back to #13。 some good humorous moments🤷♀️4。 likable， cool characters （i’m talking about manon and dorian）5。 pretty easy to read and enjoy， has creative ideas （sometimes） 6。 good at drawing emotions from the reader。 i have indeed cried， laughed out loud， and been absolutely pissed multiple times in this series。“bring my body back to the cabin” shattered me when i read it。literally everything about sam’s story。CONS:1。 the way the men in the story act？？？？？ maybe this is just a gripe i have about the fae trope in general but i hate the growling and snarling or whatever2。 the way so many female characters only exist to be saved by a man。 aelin and rowan in HoF， ELIDE AND LORCAN？？？ please she literally was saved by lorcan in every other chapter 3。 the repetition of certain tropes or “plot twists”。 the whole scenario of “omg my enemy doesn’t know they don’t have the real object they seek， i tricked them！！”。 it happened at least 3 times in QoS and i thought we had moved past that but then the end of EoS did it again。4。 in relation to #3， how the hell did manon get away with the wyrdkeys at the end of EoS？ like with the effort maeve already put in to capture aelin in the first place， you’d think she would have noticed that the powerful presence of the keys wasn’t present when she took aelin。 or maybe she would have prepared better to make sure aelin didn’t slip them somewhere （like she did）。 maeve is thousands of years old and you’re telling me that she got fooled that easily？ how convenient 5。 aelin is childish。 i’m sorry。 maybe i just don’t understand her character， but she is very naive for a queen。 she still acts like an assassin when she should be consulting her court and thinking before she acts。 all her prissy acting in the marshes really made me annoyed。 i get shes supposed to be quirky and have more to her that a stoic， traumatized queen， but she annoys me sometimes。 NOT TO SAY THAT I DISLIKE HER！！ she can be an icon， a slay if i may。6。 the fact that there is so little difference between the books。 the same exact quest of the wyrdkeys and gates has been going since BOOK ONE with very little progress？ and i get that it’s a series， there has to be a main conflict， but there’s a not a ton of other content in the books other than them trying to reach that goal—barely any side quests that don’t directly pertain to the wyrdkeys。 only other characters’ stories or more revelations， which are good， but the ToG universe feels very shallow。 the only enemies are the valg and maeve。 this is something that has barely changed from the beginning of the series。 it’s boring。 there haven’t really been any huge plot-altering plot twists either。7。 in relation to #4， plot conveniences。 how the hell did aelin and lysandra get over an entire childhood of hatred in two meetings？ i get why they forgave each other， they were manipulated by arobynn，but i find it hard to believe they became besties instantaneously after how much they had hated each other （mostly aelin tbf）。 but stillthese are only observations up to EoS， my opinions could change after KoA。 who knows。 。。。more
