Overview

Lethal. Loyal. Legendary.

Enter the world of Throne of Glass with the first book in the #1 bestselling series by Sarah J. Maas.

In a land without magic, an assassin is summoned to the castle. She has no love for the vicious king who rules from his throne of glass, but she has not come to kill him. She has come to win her freedom. If she defeats twenty-three murderers, thieves, and warriors in a competition, she will be released from prison to serve as the King's Champion.

Her name is Celaena Sardothien.

The Crown Prince will provoke her. The Captain of the Guard will protect her. And a princess from a faraway country will befriend her. But something rotten dwells in the castle, and it's there to kill. When her competitors start dying mysteriously, one by one, Celaena's fight for freedom becomes a fight for survival-and a desperate quest to root out the evil before it destroys her world.

Thrilling and fierce, Throne of Glass is the first book in the #1 New York Times bestselling series that has captivated readers worldwide.

  • Teen Series perfect for summer-binge reading

    Jaimie J. - 1 year 5 months ago

    The Throne of Glass series follows Celaena Sardothien--assassin, slave, and now, in a competition for her freedom and life. In a kingdom where magic has been banned, something strange is stirring in the castle of glass. I loved every bend, twist and snarky moment of Celaena. She's an anti-hero who actually accounts for her actions. This is a series you'll want to buy as a whole, because once you finish one, you won't be able to wait to pick up the next.

  • A breathtaking story of love, loss, loyalty and rage.

    Gretchen C. - 1 year 11 months ago

    Throne of Glass really, I mean really, surprised me. I'm usually not blown away by teen fiction, but this book did just that. At first, I thought the writing was a little too easy, but again it is meant to be marketed for teens. After giving it the benefit of the doubt, I began to realize I was actually hooked. The plot was very different than what I expected--not your usual teen werewolf/vampire love story. In fact, there were no werewolves or vampires. The series seems to get better with each book while the amazing plot unfolds and the author's writing matures. Did I mention the protagonist of the story is a beautiful, tough-as-nails assassin that is feared by all the land? Follow Celaena Sardothien as she finds true love, and a power within her she never knew existed.

  • Entertaining and Funny!

    Carly T. - 2 years 8 months ago

    This book is the first book in a series. What I liked about the book was the snarky comments and attitude of the main character. It's about a girl assassin who is given the chance to be free of her slave camp if she competes in a tournament to become the evil king's champion. Filled with other lovable characters and magic!

  • Sass and Swordplay

    Meg M. - 2 years 11 months ago

    All traces of magic have been erased from Adarland, but its roots might run deeper than anyone could have imagined. The story follows the exploits of a notorious assassin, Celaena Sardothien, as she fights for her freedom and the title of Champion to the King. With a tongue as sharp as her blades, Celaena is the sword-wielding answer to the typical damsel in distress. Throne of Glass is the first book in a fantastic series that is a must-read for any teen fantasy lovers.

  • Evil multidimensional demons and a female assassin fight for the future of their world

    Kaitlyn J. - 3 years 6 months ago

    This book really shows that heroines are not always unbroken and willing to risk their lives for the sheer goodness of their hearts. This book shows that there are women who have to be heroes because they someone to be their hero. This book shows a woman who was broken and bloodied and is not in for saving the world because she's good and selfless, it's because of cruelty, torture, revenge and twisted love for heart and home.
