a great introduction to the worldbuilding and to Celaena's character, her story, and her motivations. Got quite tragic at the end, and sometimes it was dragging a bit, but it is a prequel and not part of the main series so im cutting it some slack, would be four stars, but the emotional damage was enough to take it down a notch. RIP Sam. Sarah J Maas you will pay.
