Book 1 of series
I absolutely love strong heroines and Maas doesn't disappoint with her spunky queen of assassins - Celaena. Trained as an assassin after she was discovered laying between her murdered parents, Celaena's name strikes fear in the hearts off all who hear of her. Betrayed by those she called friend, she was tossed into a death camp/prison until the Prince came to ask for her to be his Champion. In a game of champions, one will rise to be the King's Champion - a wealthy and prestigious paid assassin. When the champions are brutally and ritualistically murdered one by one, Celaena begins to think that leaving the horrible prison might not have been a good idea. As she is pulled through layers of court intrigue, murder, magic, action, and romance, a perfect story is weaved. I enjoyed every last page of this book and look forward to further stories involving Celaena the assassin, Chaol the Captain of the Guard, Dorian the crowned prince and Nehemia royal princess/ bestfriend.
