Throne of Glass stands-out because of its memorable setting (there is actually a castle made of glass), strong characters, and continuous heart-stopping action sequences. Maas’ debut is stunning from beginning to end. What she doesn’t expect is to develop feelings for the two men protecting her and to make an unlikely ally in a princess. Her mission seems straightforward: be the last (wo)man standing at the end of the competition. Celaena is as beautiful as she is deadly and she jumps at the chance to earn her freedom. But when the Prince needs a skilled fighter to battle in the royal court and become the King’s Champion, he pulls the assassin out of prison only to find she is a blonde 18-year-old girl.
