This book had a really good idea for a story line. Ultimately I did enjoy it, however i will not be continuing with the series as i think the writing is aimed at a younger audience.

Not quite as good as the immensely popular Sharpe series, but still an enjoyable enough read. Gets a bit bloodier than usual for his books, but then again: it is about a famous battle, after all!

Good building on a world of magic
A good second book in the series that would become my favorite. Jim is still trying a bit in this to find his voice, and the writing will develop more fully in the next couple of books, but still a solid addition to the series. Dresden is a very human and relatable hero, but with a wonderfully crafty mind and hilarious self-depreciating sense of humor.

Well Written Novel
Strong Female Main Character
Start of an amazing series
This book is a little Beauty and the Beast-esque, which makes me love it all the more.
Especially as Belle is my favourite Disney Princess!

The main character is a strong female who overcomes many challenges, she certainly can't be seen as weak or a damsel in distress.

Highly recommend this YA series to anyone that enjoys fantasy, it is possibly a bit graphic for younger readers though.

I don't like Chaol...whoops? (0 more)
Strong second book to the series
This has to be my least favourite book out of the series. I'm not a big fan of Chaol (#Celorian). I found him to be quite irritating and never really liked the dynamic between him and Celaena since Throne of Glass. However, it was a good book! The plot was hectic (it always is with SJM!) and was so addicting, I couldn't put the book down.

Okay so the series is great as usal but the final episode is what makes me give this season 10 stars. If you haven't worked out now i like when characters dies and oh boy where there deaths in this series. I'm sad because Tyrell my favorite house but then the queen of thorns continues to live so I'm happy.

Ayra transformation is finally complete and what a way to do it.
