Years in the making, Kingdom of Ash is the unforgettable conclusion to Sarah J. Sarah J Maas kept telling us how bad ass and feared Calaena Sardothien was, even the blurb on the book of the book, but all she really did was sleep, eat candy, and flirt with two boys. While the concept was interesting, I think the execution was poor. If she can defeat twenty-three killers, thieves, and warriors in a competition to find the greatest assassin in the land, she will become the king’s champion and earn her. She does not come to kill, but to win her freedom. Some bonds will deepen and others be severed forever, but as the threads of fate weave together at last, all must fight if they are to find salvation - and a better world. Throne of Glass itself was laughably bad. The story follows the journey of Celaena Sardothien, a teenage assassin in a corrupt kingdom with a tyrannical ruler, the King of Adarlan. When magic has gone from the world, and a vicious king rules from his throne of glass, an assassin comes to the castle. And across the sea Rowan hunts to find his captured wife and queen - before she is lost to him.

Scattered throughout the continent and racing against time, Chaol, Manon, and Dorian must forge their own paths to meet their destinies. But even the many allies they've gathered to battle Erawan's hordes might not be enough to save the kingdom. With Aelin imprisoned, Aedion and Lysandra are the last line of defence keeping Terrasen from utter destruction. The knowledge that yielding to Maeve will doom those she loves keeps her from breaking, but her resolve is unravelling with each passing day.

Locked in an iron coffin by the Queen of the Fae, Aelin must draw upon her fiery will to endure the months of torture inflicted upon her. But even the many allies theyve gathered to. She has risked everything to save her people - but at a tremendous cost. With Aelin imprisoned, Aedion and Lysandra are the last line of defence keeping Terrasen from utter destruction. Aelin Galathynius's journey from slave to assassin to queen reaches its heart-rending finale as war erupts across her world.
