The Assassin’s Blade (Throne of Glass #0.5) by Sarah J. Maas

β˜† β˜† β˜† β€’

Another Throne of Glass book finished, and I am still interested in reading more! 

Now, this is a prequel to the series and we get to see how our girl Celeana grows into the badass angry woman we meet on page 1 of Throne of Glass.

It was an enjoyable read, but i have to be honest here and say, that I wasn’t super into the prequel. Don’t get me wrong, I liked the story and the book, but I just wanted to see where the main story of the series evolves. That made it hard to dive into the past.

With that being said, I am glad I didn’t read this book first. But I also am not happy that I read it after Heir of Fire. I think the best reading order is the publication order and I wish I would have read the Assassin’s Blade third, right after Crown of Midnight.

Overall, I loved seeing a bit into the past of our girl, and finding out who betrayed her… but I mean I could’ve guessed that πŸ₯²

Onto the next one!
