Years in the making, Sarah J. Maas's number-one New York Times best-selling Throne of Glass series draws to an epic, unforgettable conclusion. Aelin Galathynius's journey from slave to king's assassin to the queen of a once-great kingdom reaches its heart-rending finale as war erupts across her world....

     Aelin has risked everything to save her people - but at a tremendous cost. Locked within an iron coffin by the Queen of the Fae, Aelin must draw upon her fiery will as she endures months of torture. Aware that yielding to Maeve will doom those she loves keeps her from breaking, though her resolve begins to unravel with each passing day....

     With Aelin captured, Aedion and Lysandra remain the last line of defense to protect Terrasen from utter destruction. Yet they soon realize that the many allies they've gathered to battle Erawan's hordes might not be enough to save them. Scattered across the continent and racing against time, Chaol, Manon, and Dorian are forced to forge their own paths to meet their fates. Hanging in the balance is any hope of salvation - and a better world.

     And across the sea, his companions unwavering beside him, Rowan hunts to find his captured wife and queen - before she is lost to him forever. 

     As the threads of fate weave together at last, all must fight, if they are to have a chance at a future. Some bonds will grow even deeper, while others will be severed forever in the explosive final chapter of the Throne of Glass series.

     I was expecting this book so much, so I put away my TBR list. Is not like I haven’t done it before. Since I started this audiobook, I was very addicted to him. Seriously, even in my car, I can now "read" and drive. I felt so multitasking. Ahem, because you already know how to drive and read. But continuing with the review. *sigh*

     This novel, is a novel. I super love it! It was the perfect final fucking !! This author is a fricking genius. That final!!! Ok, ok let stopped with love, but is because I really LOVE IT!

     The novel is from the point of view of many characters. Mainly from Aeilin, Rowan, Chaol, Yrene, Manon, Dorian, Nesryn, Aedion and Lysandra. I really love him. This is one of the stories that give another context to fantasy novels. It's a perfect ending, just perfect.

     This story is one of those stories that deserve to be taken to the big screen. And if so, please do not edit it as you always do with good things. Once again my slow applause and my ovations for this author. * Here I come again quoting Grey's Anatomy *. Here is the link so you can hear this beautiful story.

     When Nowhere Is Safe

     Most people avoid the dreaded Whitechapel district. For Honoria Todd, it's the last safe haven. But at what price?

     Blade is known as the master of the rookeries—no one dares cross him. It's been said he faced down the Echelon's army single-handedly, that ever since being infected by the blood-craving he's been quicker, stronger, and almost immortal.

     When Honoria shows up at his door, his tenuous control comes close to snapping. She's so...innocent. He doesn't see her backbone of steel—or that she could be the very salvation he's been seeking.

     In this story we have Honoria and her siblings, who are running from a bad man that wants to kill and/or imprison them for their knowledge of what their father was doing, some experiments for a vaccine to help starve off the virus that makes them turn into vampires after many years.

     Blade has guessed who Honoria is but he doesn't want to turn her in for the reward, after all he is a rogue on the run himself, but he wants to know what is so interesting in her that the man he hates most in the world has put a price on her head.

     I find it charming that Blade tries to keep Honoria at arms length and at the same time he can seem to be apart from her for long. Honoria for her part tries to hide or not acknowledge her attraction for Blade. After all he is a blue blood and they are all the same in her head.

     There were many a scene where I cried and some other where I got mad. The twists and turns taken by this characters and the decisions they had to make to save themselves and those they loved were executed perfectly and I can't wait to see what McMaster has in store for Honoria's sister and the verwolven.
