Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas
5.0

I’m will be the first to say that you guys were all right. Okay. I was wrong, there I said it. Because previously if you caught by reviews for Book 1 and 2 in the Throne of Glass series you will know that I gave them four stars. And I went into Heir of Fire (book 3) with very low expectations. But let me be the first to tell you just how good this book was. The hype is all too real! I don’t even know how to explain how I feel about this book let alone what the book was about without spoilers. But gosh let me try.

Our story picks up after the events of book 2, and Celaena is sent on a mission by the evil King of Adarlan on a far off continent. Finally, we leave the glass castle and are introduced to a whole bunch of new creatures and places. There is a huge focus on Celaena dealing with her grief, and depression. We learn so much about her backstory and her motivations. We are introduced to major new characters, the magic system is further developed, and bigger puzzle pieces of the evil king’s master plan are revealed. At first the different POVs were confusing but once I got in the groove of the story it felt easier to switch between the storylines. And I even found myself loving each one! I finally feel like everything we learned in book 1-2 is paying off because the emotional impact this story had on me was unmatched! I felt so deeply for each of our characters and the action scenes had me on the edge of my seat! Of course, literally, the last 20 pages of this book shattered my heart and left on such a huge cliffhanger. I need the next book now and CANNOT wait to see what happens next!
