I feel as though this book and TOG were setting up the series and Celaena now finally knows what she needs to do. Of course there will be more discovery on her end in the other 5 books but now we seem to be starting her adventure rather than going through daily life with her.
Overall I really enjoyed the book! The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is how slow the beginning was.
