Her pride seems to have calmed down and while she’s confident in her abilities I no longer find her as incessantly arrogant. I love Celaena’s return to her cunning self. The difference in writing style and maturity is evident from the very start of this book. Torn between her two protectors-a captain and a prince-and battling a dark force far greater than the king, Celaena must decide what she will fight for: her liberty, her heart or the fate of a kingdom … And every death Celaena fakes, every lie she tells, puts those she loves at risk.

Along with completing these assassins, Celaena faces another challenge that brings the secret of magic closer toward her.
