I am so impressed with this series.

She was fire, and light, and ash, and embers. She was Aelin Fireheart, and she bowed for no one and nothing, save the crown that was hers by blood and survival and triumph.

I honestly cannot remember the last time when a series was so consistently good. It's the fourth book and yet the story and the characters feel as fresh as the first.

Aelin Galathynius has returned and her life as Celaena Sardothien is a part of the past - or so she thought. Aelin must spend a few more weeks as Celaena the Assassin before she can take up the mantle as the Queen of Terrasen - or as others call her:

“Fire-breathing bitch-queen.��

She has quite a few people to save - her cousin is on death row, the prince is trapped within his own mind and every day more people are being executed. With tensions mounting on every side - will she be able to save anyone in time?

Then she smiled with every last shred of courage, of desperation, of hope for the glimmer of that glorious future. “Let’s go rattle the stars.

I absolutely adored this book - the personal growth from Aelin and the other characters really cinched this novel for me. Aelin's changed so much from the half-dead assassin in book 1 and every book she continues to grow more than I thought possible.

I'm also a huge fan of Manon and the Blackbeak witch-clan. I still don't know fully how much they will play a part in the series but every time I read their side, I'm completely enraptured.

Gah. This series needs to be roughly 10 books later.

"The end of the road," Admin said with a half smile.
"No," Chaol said, his own smile faint, tentative. "The beginning of the next."
