kingnoob 's review for:

Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas
5.0

Goodreads just crashed after I submitted my very lengthy review on this book. Annoyed and can't be bothered to write another one.

TDLR Calaena/Aelin develops and shifts(ha!) a lot in this story, other characters feel lackluster/too similar.
Plot: Gets very wild and overwhelming, especially in the second half, captivating readers to keep on reading through the (seemingly) endless challenges Calaena faces. An equilibrium of 'good' and 'bad' outcomes balance the stakes on the tipping edge.
Setting: We definitely get to see a lot of Erilea in this book. Very detailed background and lore.
Writing: Action scenes are gripping and thrilling. Some of the suffering might be too much for some, but I enjoyed it(in the context of reading). Ending is beautifully crafted.

Great read, would recommend, although the first two books(esp. Throne of Glass) felt like a slog to read, this one is well-crafted and serves as a great sequel to continue Aelin's story.
