Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like the healer will potentially be making an appearance in the main series. These prequels seem like "first meeting" stories.

I love Yrene in books 6 and 7, this story was just a little boring? Maybe because I read it after finishing the whole series?
3.5 stars
A little less impressive than the first novella, but it still has elements that made me feel invested in the story. Extra point for girl empowerment! *wootwoot* (I still need to apply for a self-defence class, but I know the theories now. And hope to never have to apply that in real life!)
My guess is that all the characters in these novellas will play an important role in Celaena's future, so it's great to know how they met.

A quick prequel to TOG series, gives some good insight into Aelins journey!

I so want to see Yrene Towes again, she seems like such an interesting character - not to mention that I totally sismance her with Celeana.
Celeana has been staying at the White Pig Inn, Innish, a small port town, for a few days, her goal is to reach the Red Desert, where she is to meet the Mute Master of Assassins, who'll train her for a month. This is Celeana's punishment for destroying the slave-trade agreement between Arobynn and the Pirate Lord of Skull's Bay.
Yrene, a girl whose mother was killed for being a healer, works a the Inn, as she wants to win enough coin to be able to go to Torre Cesme, where she can learning the art of healing. However, her boss is constantly cutting her salary and tips, and raising the rent of her small room.
Their paths cross and Celeana changes Yrene's life.
"For wherever you need to go - and then some. The world needs more healers."

My favourite of this Assassin prequel bunch!! I can't wait to see more of the "healer" in the future.
