A review by megsbookishtwins
Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas

5.0

“She was the heir of ash and fire, and she would bow to no one.”

Celaena Sardothien is lost and she is guilt ridden over the loss of her friend. She out for revenge, and the keep the promise she made. Celaena has made her way to Wendlyn in search for answers to destroy the King of Adarlan.

If you loved Throne of Glass and Crown of Midnight then you will love this. While is was slow in places and the middle on occasion dragged a bit, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. In the chapters that dragged, I never once disliked it. I liked finding out more about the Fae and the world. I thought the world building was fantastic, and better than the previous books. Sarah J. Maas' writing also improved tremendously, and she seemed to put more focus on the characters and their development and I really liked that.

There were some characters that were added who I truly loved. Such as Sorcha, Aedion, Rowan and Manon. Sometimes I thought Manon's story wasn't really needed at all, and her story did sometimes bore me, I loved her character, and her story did get a little bit of my attention, but I much preferred the other characters chapters. I'm assuming Manon is going to have more relevance in the future books, so I persevered through her chapters.

I loved Aedion and Rowan. Our two new male characters. Sorcha was also a great addition.

Overall, a fantastic sequel and this is definitely one of my favourite series!
