Now, she must travel to a new land to confront her darkest truth…a truth about her heritage that could change her life-and her future-forever. Meanwhile, brutal and monstrous forces are gathering on the horizon, intent on enslaving her world. Will Celaena find the strength to not only fight her inner demons, but to take on the evil that is about to be unleashed?

2 What to expect
The third Throne of Glass novel, in which the series widens: Celaena travels to a new land to face the truth about her heritage and to learn to control the power she carries, under a stern immortal trainer. Other chapters follow the people she left behind as the king's plans advance. It is longer, slower and more inward than the first two books, much concerned with grief and guilt, and it needs them.
Good for readers who want: epic fantasy, a love story, magic, and a long read.
