This book was really good, however some parts felt quite slow and bored me but it is a super quick read. I adore Celaena and her growth in this book was so good. All the mentions of Sam broke my heart as Sam was amazing and I am not ready to re-read 'The Assassins Blade' at all. This series has my whole heart and it is SJM's best series.
Quotes:
- “The rest of the world quieted into nothing. In that moment, after ten long years, Celaena looked at Chaol and realised she was home.”
- “But death was her curse and her gift, and death had been her good friend these long, long years.”
- “Then Celaena and the King of Adarlan smiled at each other, and it was the most terrifying thing Dorian had ever seen.”
-“Celaena Sardothien wasn’t in league with Aelin Ashryver Galathynius. Celaena Sardothien was Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, heir to the throne and rightful Queen of Terranes. Celaena was Aelin Galathynius, the greatest living threat to Adarlan, the one person who could raise an army capable of standing against the king. Now, she was also the one person who knew the secret source of the king’s power—and who sought a way to destroy it. And he had just sent her into the arms of her strongest potential allies: to the homeland of her mother, the kingdom of her cousin, and the domain of her aunt, Queen Maeve of the Fae. Celaena was the lost Queen of Terrasen. Chaol sank to his knees.”
- “To escape death, she'd become death.”
-“Because she wasn't human, Chaol realized, gaping at her from where he still crouched over Fleetfoot. No - she wasn't human at all. Celaena was Fae.”
- “Hide from fate all you like,” Baba Yellowlegs said as they turned away. “But it shall soon find you!”
- “Her salary as King’s Champion was considerable, and Celaena spent every last copper of it. Shoes, hats, tunics, dresses, jewelry, weapons, baubles for her hair, and books. Books and books and books. So many books that Philippa had to bring up another bookcase for her room.”
- “He'd loved her so much that she still felt the echoes of it, even now.”
Tropes:
- Assassin FMC
- Fae and magic
- Found Family
