I cannot say enough good things about this amazing and thrilling sequel to, Throne of Glass. Maas really did hit it out of the park with this, by bringing in more danger and super complex complicated games that will have loyalties tested at every available opportunity imaginable. Mysterious and edgy, you are going to absolutely fall in love with Crown of Midnight. Talk about a nail biter, this one definitely fits the profile. What more could you ask for in such a perfect follow up to an amazing start? Dark suspicion, adventurous and daring danger, intrigue, swoon-worthy boys, and romance.
Oh, the romance and the boys! How could you choose, Chaol or Dorian!? Dorian or Chaol?! One's dark and broody and the other one is oh so, tricksy. It's just...Guh! And they're both absolutely kickass and for spoilers sake, I won't say what happens or who Celaena picks, but there's definitely a connection between her and both of them. You'll just have to read to find out what it is.
If you love kickass fantasy, amazingly strong and brilliantly developed characters, and intriguing plot suspense then this is the novel for you. Seriously, it is! So, you should go pick it up as soon as it hits shelves in bookstores near you. It is the absolutely perfect, most super genius, fantasy filled world that I've seen written in a while and that's saying a lot! Mostly I like fantasy, but this book absolutely made me fall in love with fantasy. This is absolutely how it's supposed to be done.
So, what are you waiting for?! You should go pre-order this...NOW!
