Heir of Fire
Throne of Glass - Book 3
This one has a lot going on all at once.
Since Celaena has left the castle, and the men who love her and want her protected, behind, she is now on the hunt for Maeve for answers only she can give.
Unfortunately, Maeve has stuck with Celaena with the goal of being "worthy" before she will give her answers. If she can get trained in her magic, with the help of Rowan - the mysterious magical creature who is a soldier of Maeve's - then she will get her answers.
and then some.
So, Celaena is stuck in this limbo city of sorts while she is forced to go through training and chores yet again
Just by a different hand *looks Rowan up and down slowly, with wiggly eyebrows*
Meanwhile, Chaol and Dorian have a mutual acquaintance they are trying to handle. Aedion, who was a General in the Army and is technically a prince - as well as a relative of Celaena. We see their relationship between the boys come to head, with secrets, lies, a history and the promise of a future ...
...until the King we all know and love (yeah, right) gets wind of what is going on.
There is also a third storyline going on about some witches fighting and taking on some giant creatures. These chapters confused me to no end and either I missed something along the way or am just oblivious;
Both are totally possible, let's be honest here.
Maas's writing is just as creative and enthralling as ever. She pulls you in deeper and deeper into this world with each page (mind the weird witch plot but hey...) and then it all comes to a stunning conclusion - for a book - and you are left sitting in a pool of your tears and scrambling for the next book right away because WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN ?!
(which of course I ordered a few days ago and am still waiting for so over Christmas I will have to distract my brain with other options from this towering TBR pile. Gives me some time to stop crying, no?)
