The Assassin's Blade ~ Sarah J. Maas (Throne of Glass #0.1-0.5)



Avg. ★★★★☆

The Assassin and the Pirate Lord

★★☆☆


It was good, and helped establish some of pre-Endovier Caelena but I didn't really like the somewhat forced relationship between her and Sam. Idk it just didn't feel natural, and it was probably just because of how short it was. And Sam's almost death didn't feel anxious enough (though, I'll forgive Sarah J Maas of that, since readers of the series all already know Sam's dead). Overall, it was good, but not great.

The Assassin and the Healer

★★★☆

It was an interesting story with stronger character elements than action. The new addition of the southern continent with Torre Cesme was interesting, but I can't help but wonder why it hasn't been mentioned in the main series yet (unless it has and I just don't remember; I'm only up to Heir of Fire as of the time of this review.)

The Assassin and the Desert

★★★

The Assassin and the Underworld
