Oh... where to start? I know! I’m still a Dorian simp 🛐🛐
Heir of Fire is a lot of things and, if I may be honest, a disappointment is one of those. After reading Crown of Midnight, one can only expect that everything will go up like the stonks meme. Alas, this wasn’t the case for this book. From boring chapters of a witch called Manon (I don’t hate them, it’s just that I’m absurdly interested in the main story and you all of the sudden give me this chapter of something I don’t understand and bored me to death) to an unrequested —and frankly quite unnecessary— death, Heir of Fire is your story if you’re looking to get bored for around 200-ish pages out of almost 600.
Nevertheless, this was the introduction to our beloved and cherished Rowan and the mighty queen Aelin Galathynius so I can’t complain that much. From a character development point of view, Heir of Fire is an amazing book. Now, from a plot perspective, Heir of Fire only disappoints as we only have one, small, ten pages scene that gives us this disappointing excuse of a “plot twist” that you could see since the introduction of the dearly loved aunt.
Anyways! All bad aside, the king of Adarlan isn’t prepared for the hell that will start as soon as Celaena gets to his ostentatious glass castle.
