Queen of Shadows: Throne of Glass Book 4 (Kindle Edition)

Mary: Such an amazing book!!!! Can’t criticise it in any way.
Probably just needed a bit more spice.
I love Aelin.

C.a.t: I’m a big reader but this year has been busy busy but I’ve managed to find time for the ToG book series.
If you like fantasy and female protagonists this is for you.

May: The product arrived in time and in the perfect conditions.
As for the plot of the book, I wasn’t really into the story until I read Heir of Fire and, later on, The Assassin’s blade, which were the best ones for me so far (much better than the others up to that point). This one was just as good. Great character development and word building.

Payne’s Bookworm Reviews: These books just get better and better with each book I read. When I first starting reading this series I wasn’t sure I was going to enjoy it as it didn’t seem something I was going to like, Celaena’s character just annoyed me. But I am so glad I stuck it through as I am so invested into these characters and the more that are introduced and the more they grow I just don’t want the series to end now that it is coming closer to its end.

After defeating Narrok and the Valg Princes’, saving Mistward in Heir of Fire, saving Rowan from Maeve, starting her our Court, giving a blood oath, Celaena/Aelin was back in Ardalan to try and keep her promise she made to Nehemia to free her people and save Eyllwe. But she never expected to find out that everything had fallen apart after she left. Her cousin Aedion was alive but due to be executed, no one knew where the Captain Chaol was, what had happened to the Prince Dorian, plus there were new uniform guards everywhere. People were being executed daily on the streets, She needed to do something and quick. Can she save Aedion? Can she get the Amulet of Orynth? Can she free magic and get Rowan to join her and bring Terrasen back...

María Mariano Hernández: Después de los eventos ocurridos en Heir of Fire, Aelin Galathynius está de vuelta en Adarlan. Pero ella tendrá que hacer más cosas de las que se esperaba en su regreso.
DORIAN. DORIAN. DORIAN. Ese primer capítulo destrozó mi alma por completo. Luego, en su encuentro con Aelin y Aedion me dio tanta pena que no quisiese que Aelin supiese que él seguía de alguna forma dentro de su cuerpo sólo para que ella le matase y acabase con su dolor. Y cuando se acercaba a Manon para irritarla y que le matase ella sólo podía pensar “Dorian, aléjate de ese bicho YA”. De verdad espero que a la autora no se le ocurra juntarlos en los próximos libros porque Dorian es demasiado bueno para Manon. Y me da muchísima pena que lo hayan dejado solo en su castillo.
Sé que mucha gente dice que el personaje de Aelin ha actuado de forma muy diferente en comparación con libros anteriores pero yo no lo veo del todo así. Ella ha cambiado, sí, pero con la gente que aprecia siempre ha sido igual. No olvidemos que es un personaje que no suele mostrar sus sentimientos pero sí su rabia. Me dio muchísimo miedo cuando Arobynn le puso el anillo, de verdad que me moría. Pero al final ella...

Elovett: Another good and exciting book by Maas. I cannot say it was great or as good as her previous books, but it was till very well written. There is a lot of action throughout the book and it is very hard to put down. There are intriguing plots and twists and turns everywhere. There is good character development between both old and new relations in this book. There are elements of mystery, romance, friendship, enemies, alliances, and many more. This book is definitely a little darker and geared in a more mature direction. I liked that. It lended more food for thought.

So now that all of that has been said there were things that I found lacking. I won't give away any spoilers per say. However, there are some major changes that occur between characters. Some fans will most likely be shocked, however, I believe that if they will reread the last portions in book 3 it gave away what would occur within this book. That part was kind of a let down. Aelin's character changes were predictable. That was not something I enjoyed. In her previous three books I was more surprised and things were harder for me to figure out. While there were still some plots that I could not predict the...

Robin Snyder: *****Shorter Spoiler Free Review*****

There are a few things I both love and hate about Sarah J Maas (SJM) at the same time. For YA novels she takes a few risks, she kills off characters that are loved, she gives the heroine a plethora of love interests that break the reader’s hearts every now and again, she adjusts accepted lore to fit the story better and she has no problem adding new characters that are not all black or white but shades of grey and all the more interesting because of it.

The great thing about this is that it is hardly ever boring. The bad thing about this is that it can give you visceral reactions to what is happening in the story. I had visceral reactions to Queen of Fire more than the rest of the series

The Best Parts of the Story:

✔ - Girl Power to the max. There are some awesome women already in this series and a few more were just added.

-- ' Lysandra -- Okay you might have seen her in the novellas but not like this. She was more than I thought she was going to be and the new development in her relationship with Aelin is great. I immediately loved her and her backstory.

-- ' Elide – Marion’s daughter and...
