This series is going to give me a heart attack, I swear. Holy heck, SJM, you really know how to build the drama!
This one starts slow and has more world-building right at the beginning. We're on a different continent so it's useful and important information, but between the new info, cast of characters, and Celaena/Aelin's dark emotiotional state, there was some effort required to get going. Manon is interesting and I can't wait to see what happens with the Thirteen and Abraxos. Also I'm curious to see what Chaol gets up to moving forward. He's very.... Chaol-y, but still. What's your next move, bud?
