Heir of Fire
Lost and broken, Celaena Sardothien's only thought is to avenge the savage death of her dearest friend: as the King of Adarlan's Assassin, she is bound to serve this tyrant, but he will pay for what he did. Any hope Celaena has of destroying the king lies in answers to be found in Wendlyn. Sacrificing his future, Chaol, the Captain of the King's Guard, has sent Celaena there to protect her, but her darkest demons lay in that same place. If she can overcome them, she will be Adarlan's biggest threat - and his own toughest enemy.
While Celaena learns of her true destiny, and the eyes of Erilea are on Wendlyn, a brutal and beastly force is preparing to take to the skies. Will Celaena find the strength not only to win her own battles, but to fight a war that could pit her loyalties to her own people against those she has grown to love?

Book Reviews
Tamora Pierce said that 'Celaena Sardothien is as much an epic hero as Frodo or Jon Snow'. I believe she is absolutely right. "Heir of Fire" is about 150 pages longer than its predecessors and readers will love it. So much happens - for everyone. Maas makes you sit at the edge of your chair. It is unbelievable that anyone is able to write such a flawless book. I'd rate it 6/5, but of course that's impossible. I can't wait to read the sequels and Maas's other series. If you ask me, "Throne of Glass" really is the best series ever written.
