SYNOPSIS:
Lost and broken, Celaena Sardothien’s only thought is to avenge the savage death of her dearest friend: as the King of Adarlan’s Assassin, she is bound to serve this tyrant, but he will pay for what he did. Any hope Celaena has of destroying the king lies in answers to be found in Wendlyn. Sacrificing his future, Chaol, the Captain of the King’s Guard, has sent Celaena there to protect her, but her darkest demons lay in that same place. If she can overcome them, she will be Adarlan’s biggest threat – and his own toughest enemy.

While Celaena learns of her true destiny, and the eyes of Erilea are on Wendlyn, a brutal and beastly force is preparing to take to the skies. Will Celaena find the strength not only to win her own battles, but to fight a war that could pit her loyalties to her own people against those she has grown to love?

WHY SHOULD YOU CHECK IT OUT?
In the third installment of the outrageously successful THRONE OF GLASS series, assassin Celaena is pulled every which way but loose. Torn between hating her king and her duty to serve, dealing with her own demons, and striving to protect those who need her, there are clearly going to be no easy choices in the mix!

Celaena is such a BAMF on this gorgeous cover in green, silver, and turquoise. It’s wonderful to see a leading female who is a warrior and not have her made into a sexual object. Celaena is almost androgynous in her armor, allowing the focus instead to drift to her steady gaze and sharp aim down the length of her arrow.

Sarah J. Maas is the bestselling young adult author of the THRONE OF GLASS series. Her New Adult Fantasy series, A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES, will be hitting stores starting Spring 2015. Sarah lives in Southern California and, when she’s not busy writing, she can be found exploring the coastline with her husband.

EARLY REVIEWS SAY…
Despite the slow beginning, tension snowballs into devastating twists and an absolutely riveting ending. Maas’ usual hallmarks—an epic fantasy setting and the little-exploited truth that platonic relationships can be more intense and compelling than romantic—are present in force. Will leave readers ravenous for more. (Kirkus Reviews)

Series fans will be relieved to hear that this installment is only the halfway point, and thanks to Maas’ adroit plot maneuvers, well-wrought characters, and immersive world building, they’ll be positively hooked for the forthcoming volumes. (Booklist)
