As we revisit the world of Erilea, we're swept back into the dark, emotional, and adventurous realm of Celaena, a fierce and determined queen with a heart that beats for vengeance. Her unyielding spirit and unrelenting passion for justice captivates and inspires me. Manon Blackbeak is another character that I'm falling in love with, too. She is so FIERCE. The novel’s deep exploration of themes like loyalty, betrayal, and redemption adds layers of depth to the story. The action scenes are vivid and well-executed, complementing the intricate plot. Despite its heart-rending moments, the book ends on a note of triumph and hope, leaving readers both emotionally moved and eagerly anticipating the next chapter in this gripping saga.
