ouch…. I knew exactly what was gonna happen but it STILL. HURT. ME!
I loooooooove that “My name is Celaena Sardothien and I will not be afraid” is from the one person she had left in her life that truly loved and cared for her. I gasped when he said it the first time and needed a moment to cope! Rip Sam, you were one sweet pea.
Arobynn, I hope you get brutally murdered in later books, I said what I said, and what I said is that you’re a stupid skank.
AS FOR THE BOOK AS A WHOLE!
I really enjoyed reading this prequel! It made me understand Celaena a lot more and appreciate her as a character and where she comes from. Dorian and Chaol better step up their game cause Team Sam alllllll the way, baby!
One small thing I did notice though was that, for the world’s greatest assassin, Celaena sure does get betrayed and captured a lot in these novellas. But it made for a fun time!
ONTO THE NEXT!
