Kingdoms will collide.
The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius as war looms on the horizon. Loyalties have been broken and bought, friends have been lost and gained, and those who possess magic find themselves at odds with those who don’t.
With her heart sworn to the warrior-prince by her side, and her fealty pledged to the people she is determined to save, Aelin will delve into the depths of her power to protect those she loves. But as monsters emerge from the horrors of the past, and dark forces become poised to claim her world, the only chance for salvation will lie in a desperate quest that may mark the end of everything Aelin holds dear.
In this breathtaking fifth installment of the New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series, Aelin will have to choose what — and who — to sacrifice if she’s to keep the world of Erilea from breaking apart.
Empire of Storms Review
Another great addition to the Throne of Glass world! I’m so sad this series is almost over because it’s just been so enjoyable!
Empire of Storms picks up right after the events of Queen of Shadows. Since I’m avoiding spoilers, the series follows Caelana Sardothien as she competes to be the King’s Champion and personal assassin. Because we’re nearing the end of the series, the books focus on the aftermath that comes with the position.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — I just adore these characters. As the series continues, they develop so much. As individuals and as a group, they’re wonderful characters that you can’t help but become attached to.
I love Manon and her character development. While she wasn’t my favourite part of Heir of Fire, she’s really grown on me. I also thoroughly enjoyed Lysandra’s storyline in this book!
While Queen of Shadows is still holding its spot as my favourite, the plot of Empire of Storms is really enjoyable. There’s a few moments that feel slow in the book, but Sarah J Maas pulls it all together in the end for a jaw dropping cliffhanger.
I’m super excited to see how things continue but I’m also a little sad that things are coming to an end.
Overall, Empire of Storms is a great addition to the series! With action, suspense, romance as well as the biggest cliffhanger, it certainly leaves me wanting more!
