Celaena may have won the King's Champion, but secretly, she is far from loyal to the crown and the king who is pure evil. As she finds out that she may not be the only one bent on the destruction of the crown, she starts to question her relationship with everyone she holds close: Chaol, Dorien, and even her best friend, Nehemia.

As one tragic night changes Celaena's life forever, secrets are unveiled, worlds crumble, and she will have to decide to whom she is loyal and for whom she is willing to die. 

The Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas; narrated by Elizabeth Evans, 448 p.

These are 5 novellas set before we meet Celaena in the "official" first book of the Throne of Glass series. They delve into Celaena's life before she ended up in the Salt Mines of Endovier.

Celaena is completely loyal to her master, Arobynn Hamel, but no loyalty to any of the other assassins in the guild. As she is sent out on various assignments by Arobynn, she has to make decisions that may change the course of her life. Will Sam, who has been sent along with her, help her make the right choices, and will she ever really be free from the life she leads? Will her decisions lead to terrible consequences? 

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas; narrated by Elizabeth Evans, 404 p.

There's nothing more I love than diving into a new series, especially one that is well-established and has a few books already published. The Throne of Glass series hasn't disappointed.

We meet Celaena Sardothien as she's being "rescued" from the Salt Mines of Endovier by the Crown Prince. Prince Dorian offers her freedom, but at a steep price. If she can become the King's Champion in the upcoming competition, she may earn her freedom. You see, Celaena has quite a reputation for being an untouchable assassin, so she's a sure bet for King's Champion.

As she starts training, she meets Captain Westfall, who seems to understand her. But things become complicated when competitors come up dead and mysteries unfold. Also, Prince Dorian is paying attention to Celaena as well. Will she find out what is going on, and will she ultimately find her destiny?
