The twist of a knife. The birth of a legend.
Step into the world of the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas with this collection of prequel novellas.
Celaena Sardothien is her kingdom’s most feared assassin. Though she works for the powerful Assassin’s Guild and its scheming master, Arobynn Hamel, she yields to no one and trusts only her fellow killer-for-hire, Sam. But when Arobynn dispatches her on missions that take her from remote islands to hostile deserts, Celaena finds herself acting independently of his wishes and questioning her own allegiance.
If she hopes to escape Arobynn’s clutches, Celaena will have to put her faith in her wits and her blade…knowing that if she fails, she’ll lose not just a chance at freedom but her life.
A prequel to the New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass, this collection of five novellas explores the history of this cunning assassin and her enthralling—and deadly—world.

The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas Book Review
After diving into ACOTAR and getting hooked on “the bat boys,” I was hungry for more from Sarah J. Maas. Naturally, I dove into another series, but I made the mistake of starting in the wrong place. Some might argue it’s not a big deal since it’s a prequel, but there’s a reason it comes first. You’re meant to unravel the mystery and feel the raw emotions in the initial books, then understand the why behind it all in the prequel.
That’s how I see it anyway. If I’d started in the correct order, I probably would’ve been more invested in continuing. But because I started with this book, once I finished, I felt like it could stand alone. It didn’t leave me itching to know what happens next.
