Beschreibung

Celaena Sardothien is her kingdom's most feared assassin. Though she works for the powerful and ruthless Assassin's Guild, Celaena yields to no one and trusts only her fellow killer for hire, Sam.

When Celaena's scheming master, Arobynn Hamel, dispatches her on missions that take her from remote islands to hostile deserts, she finds herself acting independently of his wishes-and questioning her own allegiance. Along the way, she makes friends and enemies alike, and discovers that she feels far more for Sam than just friendship. But by defying Arobynn's orders, Celaena risks unimaginable punishment, and with Sam by her side, he is in danger, too. They will have to risk it all if they hope to escape Arobynn's clutches-and if they fail, they'll lose not just a chance at freedom, but their lives . . .

A prequel to Throne of Glass, this collection of five novellas offers readers a deeper look into the history of this cunning assassin and her enthralling-and deadly-world.

Ich wünschte ich hätte es zuerst gelesen

Habe mich dafür entschieden Assasind Blade als drittes zu lesen und bereue es ein Wenig. Hätte ich damit begonnen hätte mich Throne of Glass mehr gepackt. Aber das sehen viele ganz anders Trotzdem war das Buch eine 5/5. Was anderes wäre eine Beleidigung. Jeder Fantasy Reader sollte diese Reihe lesen!

3.5

Trotz des gottlosesten Spoilers (IYKYK) auf Tiktok konnte das Buch mich doch an einigen Stellen noch überraschen. Als Auftakt der Reihe hat es mir sehr gut gefallen und ich bin gespannt, wie es weitergeht. 😊 P.s. Wie kommt man darauf, einen „Pirate Lord“ Rolfe zu nennen? Ich musste bei dem Namen die ganze Zeit an Rolf Schneider von GNTM denken. 😂

The Assassin and the Pirate Lord I really love Celaena!

I think Sam is a much better love interest than Dorian or Chaol. Only 4.5 stars because it was too short. I would have much rather read more. I didn't read The Assassin's Blade in one go, but spent a long time researching which order to read Throne of Glass in. I've now decided in favour of the variant where you read the first part of The Assassin's Blade after the first part, the second part of The Assassin's Blade after the second part and so on as a kind of prologue before each book And because I haven't read it all at once, I thought I'd just write a post about each individual book. So I think Celaena is amazing here too, she's such a strong character and I really recommend everyone in the world to read this series of books. It's so worth it. ! Spoiler! I'm not entirely sure Rolfe didn't break the contracts when Celaena was in Endovier. I hope not, but I think he did. I hope he comes back in Throne of Glass and the two meet again.

I really love Celaena!

A slow start, but hope for whats to come 🥹

In hindsight, starting with this book might not have been the best choice. I probably should’ve begun with the first two or three books of the series and then grab AB. While the premise had potential, I found myself struggling to stay engaged through the first half. It took me nearly six months to finish the first section, which felt slow and lacked the pull I was hoping for. Fortunately, the pace and quality picked up in the second half, which made the experience more enjoyable, but it still didn’t quite hook me in the way I expected. That being said, I’m optimistic for the rest of the series. Hopefully, it continues to build on the momentum from the second half and delivers the excitement I’m looking for and see in all of you!

Mein Herz 💔

Ich habe es an 3. Stelle gelesen und wusste deshalb bereits was kommt, aber war dennoch emotional so investiert, dass ich zum Ende nur am weinen war. Ob man es jetzt zu Beginn oder an 3./4. Stelle lesen möchte ist glaube egal, aber ich fand es wirklich gut das ich Celaena bereits kannte und so ihren Charakter noch besser nachvollziehen konnte.

My name is Sam Cortland and I will not be afraid 🥺💔

Hui was tat dieses Buch am Ende weh 😢 Wie alle Bücher von Sarah J Maas, hätten ein paar Seiten weniger nicht geschadet. Ich weiß, dass das einfach ihr Schreibstil ist und ich mag ihre Bücher auch so gerne, aber irgendwie zieht sich jeder Band anfangs immer total. Die letzten 100 Seiten wird immer alles mehr als nur zerlegt…würde mir wünschen, dass man da aber nicht immer so lange drauf warten müsste🥹 deswegen „nur“ 4 Sterne ⭐️ 🫶🏽

3.75 So... This is it. The start of one of the, if not the, biggest fantasy series of modern times. I was really scared to pick this up because I knew even before the first book that there will be no turning back from this point forward. I just know with all my heart and soul that this series will change me forever. I am obsessed with Celaena, I love how sarcastic and confident and witty she is. I love how she acts like she doesn't care but actually she does. I love how we see so much character growth only in the prequel already. The Assassin and the Pirate Lord was strong and (for some characters) full of kindness. The Assassin and the Healer was short but sweet. The Assassin and the Dessert was shocking and fun. The Assassin and the Underworld was a little boring but had a mean twist. And The Assassin and the Empire was heartbreaking and fierce. Every story had its purpose for the setup of the whole series and I am so excited to see where Sarah J. Maas will go from here. There is so much more to come

Emotional Damage... Ich habe gelacht, mich für die Charaktere gefreut und wie ein Schlosshund geweint. Ich habe die Novellen als drittes Buch der Reihe gelesen und hätte wirklich Angst... Ein wirklich guter Einblick in die verschiedenen Charaktere aus Celeanas Vergangenheit.

4.5

I chose to start the Throne of Glass series with this one, and I'm so happy with my choice. Really can't imagine regretting it at a later point! It introduces Celaena's character in a super captivating way, with each story getting more and more exciting and touching. I love her already and can't wait to see what happens next!

"You said you didn't care what I thought. Or what I did. Or if I died, if I'm not mistaken." I lied! And you know I lied, you stupid bastard!" I'm still reeling from the ending of the book. I don't want to talk about my feelings because I'll need time to process this. My heart has been ripped out and torn to shreds. I just can't. Someone dig me a grave. I am though very curious about the rest of the series. Hoping for a light at the end of a tunnel here. Sarah J. Maas I love you, but I hate you.
