Oh my god!! If you have not picked this up and you like fantasy novels, do it right now. Stop what you are doing and read this book!!! It is full of badassery, not too much romantic stuff, and magic. In the battle to find out which person will be crowned the King's Champion, lots of mystery and intrigue happens to our main heroine, Celaena Sandorthien. What is even cooler about this, there are pronunciation guides in the back of the book (at least in the paperback edition). I can't wait to start on the next one!!

The mystery and intrigue continues. With very new piece of information we learn it seems as though one question is answered and at least two more appear.

Huntley continues to save the world in style whilst trying to decipher her past. All of this is made more challenging by not knowing who to trust.

As a reader we are just as baffled as Huntley about her past, despite the very small snippets from an unknown narrator.

The book ends on a pretty massive cliffhanger, so be prepared, although you’re lucky, you won’t have to wait for the next book to be released.

Loved it, loved it, loved it!

What a fantastic first book in a new series - murder, suspense, action, intrigue, twists and turns aplenty and with the fantastic characters, perfect pace and gripping story line, this makes for one excellent book.

Highly recommended and I can't wait for the next one to see how Con develops and what she gets up to next.

Did I say I loved it?!?

Many thanks to the publisher, Wildfire (a part of the Headline Division of Hachette UK) via NetGalley for my copy in return for an unbiased review.

Movie Favorite

"The Royal Tenenbaums. The style of the movie is so brilliant, and it just had so much character and intrigue, and the characters are all so specific, and funny, and heartbreaking, and as heightened as the world is, everybody’s so grounded. There’s just so much going on in that movie, and it just keeps moving. When you sit through it, you’re never bored through any of it, and I just think that [Wes Anderson] is one of the best directors of all time. I love pretty much everything with Bill Murray in it, so yes, that would be the first one."

After reading this for a second time I can now give a fair review.


This book is so unique in its plot. It takes us on a journey through Paris while weaving a tale of action, intrigue and romance. Natalie combines both fantasy and other famous fictional characters to enhance the story and I loved it :D

You come to like the characters and will them on in their journey of discovering who the bad guys are.

It is a really enjoyable read and I will be sure to re-read the second one now too :D
