Ok heir of fire was good but the bit at the end where Selena finally frees Rowan from his blood oath and he’s like THANK YOU I MUST SWEAR TO YOU A BLOOD OATH I’m like dude did you not learn your lesson with the last one?? And his reasoning that Maeve could come for Selena any time after she leaves…like ok do you know you can actually defend and protect someone who you’re not enslaved to? Just by choice and free will? My dude…

If it had made me cry it would be a 5/5. Maas is a phenomenal writer who draws you into a world so unlike our own. Rumors of magic, love and loss, and Bonds to be Found, Broken, and Created take the lead in the themes through this book. 

We still love all of the characters from previous books, but the new characters we meet find their way into our hearts too. 

Maas lights a small candle flame of hope in our hearts when all feels like despair. 

We are rooting for Aelin, to whatever end. 🖤🙌🏻

An amazing emotional trip and continuance of the series.  It keeps you literally on the edge of your seat. I could not put the book down and there are not a lot of books out there that does that to me..  I will be thinking about this story for the next several days.  It’s definitely a book and a series that you can dive in and forget the world around you.  ❤️. LOVED IT!

I took a HUGE break from this one after devouring TOG & CoM but when I got the itch to pick it up again, I was hooked. I can't wait to continue this series 👏
