Really enjoyed this, especially as the plot picked up toward the middle of the book. There was one twist at the end that I saw coming from the first book, and another that I did not expect.
I called it from the moment that they mentioned Aelin Galathynius that she was Celaena Sardothien. However, I was very surprised when I learned that Celaena was Fae.
I really enjoyed Celaena’s development in this one, especially when she really came into her own dark power while rescuing Chaol, hunting Grave and fighting the monster in the portal.
I think the world building is decent, but could be better, especially when it comes to details about the other kingdoms.
