The Assassin’s Blade is the prequel to Sarah J Maas’s book series Throne of Glass. The Assassin’s Blade follows young assassin Celaena Sardothien and how she ended up in a slave camp called Endovier.

It includes multiple short stories about adventures she went on and different people she met.

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas is an enriching fantasy that follows Feyre Archeron, a mortal human drawn into the fae world after she kills a wolf. The book emphasizes character development, highlighting Ferye’s transformation into a strong and superior figure. With the combination of its rich world-building and confusing romance between Feyre and Tamlin, the story is both thrilling and emotional, making it a must-read for fantasy and romance lovers.
