Meet Celaena Sardothien.
Beautiful. Deadly. Destined for greatness.
In a land without magic, where the king rules with an iron hand, Celaena, an assassin, is summoned to the castle. She comes not to kill the king, but to win her freedom. If she defeats twenty-three killers, thieves, and warriors in a competition, she is released from prison to serve as the king's champion.
The Crown Prince will provoke her. The Captain of the Guard will protect her. But something evil dwells in the castle of glass—and it's there to kill. When her competitors start dying 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.
My Opinion
This is a series that I have been highly recommended and I have finally got around to starting it. I have to say that I have been a little distracted whilst reading this so I haven't loved it. For me, I think this is going to be one of those books that I think I am going to have to read for a second time to get the full enjoyment.
That being said, it was an enjoyable read with a lot going on.
Rating 4/5
