Overall rating: 85%

There were no Percy or Annabeth chapters and I have unanswered questions! It was still super fun to read and I really enjoyed reading from Nico's POV.

Heir of Fire review and discussion

All of the stars because Celaena rattles the stars. Spoiler free review Celaena returns bent and broken but damn she made a speedy recovery.

The writing was amazing, the character development was better than ever and the story is beyond words. I highly highly recommend every book in this series. Novellas and everything.

If I go into any detail at all it will spoil you so I'm just going to leave this hoping that you all get the message.

If for no other reason go buy the book just to be able to admire the cover.  This book was phenomenal. There is actually nothing that I would change in this book.

The writing was wonderful and witty. If you like reading books where you get to experience different places around the world through the book, this is perfect for you. My heart weeps over the idea of starting a new book now. No book could be as ...
