Throne of Glass

          


Title: Throne of Glass
Series: The Throne of Glass #1
Author: Sarah J. Maas
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing, August 7, 2012
Pages: 428
Genre: YA Romantasy

In a land without magic, an assassin is summoned to the castle. She has no love for the vicious king who rules from his throne of glass, but she has not come to kill him. She has come to win her freedom. If she defeats twenty-three murderers, thieves, and warriors in a competition, she will be released from prison to serve as the King's Champion.

Her name is Celaena Sardothien.

The Crown Prince will provoke her. The Captain of the Guard will protect her. And a princess from a faraway country will befriend her. But something rotten dwells in the castle, and it's there to kill. When her competitors start dying mysteriously, one by one, Celaena's fight for freedom becomes a fight for survival-and a desperate quest to root out the evil before it destroys her world.

Celaena Sardothien has too many names. I love it, but it's too many names. I am not surprised that I loved this again the second time around. Reading this after reading ACOTAR and CC is very interesting. Finding the easter eggs along the way is pretty fun. I'm sure I'm missing just as many as I'm finding. But it's a fun journey either way.
