I enjoyed this more than Heir of Fire since the pacing was better, and it felt like things were actually happening. I found Rowan more tolerable in this book, and the other new characters continued to grow on me as well. Still, I found Aelin's attitude so annoying, especially in the beginning, and I hate how Celaena and Chaol's relationship has been ruined for no reason.
