Okay first things first, I’d like to say the writing of this book had some AMAZING strong points. It wasn’t poetic or heart wrenching, but it wasn’t supposed to be. The final battle scene at the end genuinely had my heart racing and my mind in shambles. I liked the pacing and development of the plot as well.

Team Chaol absolutely all the way 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Definitely recommend as it hooked me and I will be continuing on with the series :)

This is everything I wanted ACOTR to be. Mystery, magic, fighting, court politics. Romance is there but as a side plot. I read the novellas before this but you don't need it. Excited for the next book!

Idek where to start because Celaena is absolutely a badass. I started questioning what this "love traingle" was between Celaena, Dorian, and Chaol was going to be but GOOD THING I CAN RELAX. This is definitely a different playing field than the ACOTAR series. 
I will admit though, this book is giving me more of a reason to read more fantasy books.
