Description
Only the greatest sacrifice can turn the tide of war.
War is brewing in the fifth book in this complete, #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas, author of the Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) series.
The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius as war looms on the horizon. Loyalties have been broken and bought, friends have been lost and gained, and those who possess magic find themselves increasingly at odds with those who don't.
With her heart sworn to the warrior-prince by her side and her fealty pledged to the people she is determined to save, Aelin will delve into the depths of her power to protect those she loves. But as monsters emerge from the horrors of the past, dark forces stand poised to claim her world. The only chance for salvation lies in a desperate quest that may take more from Aelin than she has to give, a quest that forces her to choose what-and who-she's willing to sacrifice for the sake of peace.

Reviews
It’s ok
2By jananana:)Aelin is just annoying in this book. I understand she has a lot of trauma to handle but that does not excuse her lack of common sense. Manon and Lysandra were real bada**es though.No words. Actually a lot of words.
5By apaigesnowI genuinely feel like this book was a rollercoaster. I was laughing, crying, swearing and smiling in reoccurring sequences. This book series has completely captured my heart! I knew from those first moments with Aelin and Rowen that they were mates, all of the silent conversations were too intense for it to be just an amazing bond. Still heartbreaking to have it outed this way. I can’t wait for Maeve to have what’s coming to her. Very sad to see setbacks w Lorcan and Elide when he had me sobbing at saying he would’ve joined her. Same with Lysandra and Aedion their relationship was very sweet. Obviously it will all sort out and can’t wait to read how.Empire of Storms

5By avlahannahFantastic. Tragic, epic, love, adventure.So dark at the end
1By Big sghThe ending is so awful geezBest Series of Books
5By Kristie ECaptivatingamazing but…
4By beautifuland prettythe romance: phenomenal. the story: absolutely amazing…except for the ending. the beach bit with maeve made me want to puke, it was so violent. but it needed to happen, i just wish i didn’t read, cause that part of the story is very dark, especially if you are a younger reader and do not experience reading gorier things.SO GOOD!!!
5By Juliet Ortsevit was a little difficult to read this because (if you are a TRUE throne of glass fan) you know you have to tandem-read empire of storms and tower of dawn. it was frustrating because i just wanted to read this one! so much good stuff was happening, but i had to go and read more of tower of dawn. but, of course, i must tandem them 🫡 but anyways, this book was SO good, so much stuff is happening and it’s crazy how much the characters and the plot has changed since book one (which was assassin’s blade for me) but also throne of glass! i love this series 😝Breathtaking Read
5By BrittbrtnWhen everything came together in the end - all those hours of reading finally clicking into place… I was without words.This felt like fluff
4By hannqueeThe endings of this series make up for the long, drawn out pages building up to it. But MAN is it work to get through some of the useless info and fluff to get to the good stuff.AMAZING!!!!!!!
5By Chanchan15How, tell me HOW does a series keeps getting better and better!!! I LITERALLY could not put this book down. I’m in love with alllll the characters and that Alien….whew chile…..she is a FORCE to be reckoned with!!! I can’t wait for the next book.
