My favorite in the TOG series so far! This feels like the mid-season finale and I'm excited for it to come back with a bang. Every once in a while something happens in an SJM book that's frustrating -- but where other authors draw it out, SJM resolves the characters' stumbles and issues in a way that's timely and satisfying. What more could you want?

This book had me on the edge of my seat. The last one in the series was a little bit slow to read, but this one was moving from start to finish.

There it is!!! It took about four books but the Throne of Glass Series has finally showed its SJM magic! I enjoyed the first few books but Queen of Shadows was everything I wanted from this story! It was fast paced, well written, characters are amazing, world building through the roof! I can't wait to see what comes next!
