Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas
My rating: 4/5
Genre: High Fantasy
Category: YA
Publisher: Blomsbury
Celeana Sardothien, an 18 year old assassin, was captured and sentenced to the salt mines of Endovier. After a year in the mines she is given a chance to become the king’s champion, she will be granted freedom after a four-year contract. Working as an assassin for the empire she hates is not her idea of a fun time, but she takes the deal.
Not only did the blurb grab me instantly but the cover is beautiful, not to complex, the right balance of colours, striking
but simplistic! Sarah’s writing had me on the edge of my seat from the get go. This book is the perfect mix of mystery, magic, humour and romance – a brilliant balance for fans of good YA fantasy. With a strong, interesting and hilarious protagonist, there is nothing more you will need from Throne of Glass.
