About this deal
And I didn’t feel particularly connected to any of the characters (I did love Celaena though) or invested in the story. There is a lot to be said for the story and the changes that come as a result of this one, but at the same time I still kind of feel like it’s a filler book.
Mostly we dealt with the emotions relating to what had happened in the prior books, hence the focus upon friendship rather than romance. Maass 1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series-now available for a limited time in a brand-new miniature format This exclusive edition highlights Rowan Whitethorn.If you haven’t read them before, all I can say is STICK WITH IT because by the end of the book you’ll be excited to delve into her world even deeper. We learn more about where our Assassin is from, and she learns more about herself and her limits, she begins to become that an even more badass Character than we originally adored her for being.
Don’t get me wrong, I loved Chaol and I was sad with the demise of their relationship (and for SUCH a stupid reason) but I LOVE Celaena and Rowan.

Heaps of information I’d forgotten were brought back, which is not particularly important or integral to the story but what I find rather interesting such as the crossing the witches made from the wastes across the White Fang mountains and Ruhnns after magic disappeared.Maybe you just pay more attention, maybe the details stick in your mind better… But the feelings invoked are stronger, and you appreciate the story more. Both of them, broken and scarred people, finding happiness again by helping each other… And I’m glad that it’s not that insta-love rubbish, because nothing, nothing, puts me off more.
