I honestly thought this was going to be a smol Novella...like the average novella. This was a freaking tome🤣🤣🤣😭 over 12 hours long. I immediately switched over from the ebook and requested my library to buy the audio (thankfully they approved👏🏼🙏🏼). Without further ado, my ratings for novellas:
- the assassin and the pirate lord 5/10⭐
- The assassin and the healer 8.5/10⭐
- The assassin and the desert 10/10⭐
- The assassin and the underworld/underword (I've seen it spelled both ways but either way my rating does not change)...bump up in star b/c her and Sam kissed😘 4/10⭐
- the assassin and the empire 10/10⭐.... Sam🥺🥺🥺

My favorite stories remain Assassin and the Desert and Assassin and the Empire.
I absolutely love these stories about Celaena. I think they give more depth to her character. They're also super fun, easy, and quick to read.
