Kingdom of Ash: 7 (Throne of Glass)

’Once upon a time, in a land long since burned to ash, there lived a young princess who loved her kingdom...’ Every book in this series so far has been an undisputed, beloved five star favourite of mine so naturally I was immensely excited to finally dive into the final book in the Throne Of Glass series. Yet, I’ll confess, there was a slight undercurrent of nervousness too. Considering the stakes in this series it’s impossible not to worry about the fates of your favourite characters. Plus I couldn’t help but wonder how on earth one book, even a very lengthy one, could possibly hope to tie everything up. Obviously I can’t comment on the first of these two worries but as to the second I truly did worry in vain. Everything was somehow tied up gloriously and none of the big conflicts felt at all rushed or anticlimactic to me. So where to truly begin with this review? I feel like I’ve already gushed about the world and characters enough in my previous reviews of the series. It’s pretty awe-inspiring to look back over the series though and reflect upon how each and every one of the major characters has grown over the course of these books. The amount of believable character development that has gone on is amazing to behold. And the chemistry between each of the pairings truly does blow me away. Everyone seems to slot together perfectly yet they simultaneously face struggles and hardships over the course of these books too. Some people may be daunted by the size of this book but please, please don’t be. Personally I think that a long book, if a well written one, simply gives you more to cherish and treasure. Plus I can honestly say that this book didn’t drag for so much as a second; it may be a big book but there isn’t a moment of filler or unnecessary content. I was so hooked upon this text that I couldn’t have put it down if I’d wanted to...which I think you can probably tell I didn’t. There are so many twists, turns, devastation and anguish. There were numerous occasions when I found myself waiting with baited breath, terrified to discover what would occur. There’s emotional turmoil and depth galore. And, prior to this novel, I don’t think I truly knew just how immensely fascinating siege warfare could be to read about. Let’s be honest; it pretty much goes without saying that I recommend ’Kingdom Of Ash’ and the ’Throne Of Glass’ series as a whole to everyone, especially fantasy fans. There’s plenty to appeal to readers of both YA and adult fantasy novels and I’d definitely also recommend it to any fellow fans of the fae. Truthfully this may even be my favourite novel of the series which is pretty rare for me to say of a finale. Considering just how much these books have enthralled me I’ll certainly be reading more of Sarah J. Maas’s offerings soon.

Having enjoyed the entire series up until this point, I had very high expectations for what this conclusion would bring, especially after the shocking ending to the previous book. Along with many fans worldwide, I was massively surprised, and more than a little shocked at what the Author had done! I mean, how could this POSSIBLY be rectified in time for the ending? Given the situation we had been handed to being the story with, I knew that this would either rise to the occasion, or be another ending to a series that left me disappointed, and wishing I hadn’t bothered. Not so in this case. I loved each page of the ending, there was action throughout, but also many scenes that gave opportunities for the Characters to shine true. Each of the Characters have gradually adapted and matured to become the people they are in time for the final book, and i have to say I think Maas did brilliantly. Each of the Characters is precisely who they need to be for the end of this tale to work, the situations they have been given leading to others that are logical, exciting and in the end, very cleverly crafted. Each of the plots pull together brilliantly, each of the Characters we have met appear to have a reason for being there, they all have a part to play and an essential decision that brings us to the truly brilliant conclusion. In true Maas style, I have laughed, cried, smiled and gasped throughout this tale. I have been through so many emotions that by the end of the story, I was truly tempted to start all over again. I was far from disappointed in this, in fact this was my favourite book of the series, and from me, that is high praise indeed. Generally, I might enjoy a final book, but this is the first time I have ever truly LOVED a last book. This didn’t feel rushed, it didn’t leave questions unanswered, and no Character was suddenly irrelevant. I can’t wait to get a gap in my reviews, because I know that very soon, I will be rereading this series once again, and looking forwards to the ending, even whilst being sad the story has now drawn to what was truly an Epic conclusion

"Once upon a time, in a land long since burned to ash, there lived a young princess who loved her kingdom" In the epic finale, Aelin faces unimaginable trials as darkness threatens to consume the world. With kingdoms on the brink and hope fading, every alliance, sacrifice, and choice will determine the fate of Erilea 👀 This book is the culmination of dozens of hours of reading, as well as tonnes of emotional investment, and the payoff is sensational! I'm pretty sure the emotional turmoil I experienced reading this book may have knocked ten years off my life, but it is a small price to pay 😭 It can be hard for a final book to live up to the expectations of the reader, but this book does that and more! Character arcs reach their destination, and the loose ends are tied up in the most satisfying way 😁 This book is by far the longest in the series, at around 1,000 pages, but the result is a finale that doesn't feel rushed and gives all of the characters their chance to shine 🌟 🪬Book vibe🪬 - Prison break - Ensemble cast - Final stand - Self-sacrifice - Lost queen returns (x2) The overwhelming message of this book is that an act of kindness, no matter how small, will inevitably come back to you in a positive way, and seeing this play out in the way that it does filled me with so much joy 🥹 If you enjoy fantasy books and you haven't yet read this series, I implore you to pick it up right now because this is just about as good as it gets ❤️

I loved this book so much! I couldn’t put the book down. A must read for all who read fantasy. You NEED to read the TOG series!

Review: Kingdom of Ash was one of the best books I've read this year. It is the ultimate conclusion to Aelin Galathynius's story, where every character, every story and every detail that took place in her long journey to Terrasen culminates in an epic finale where all the loose ends are neatly tied up. Pros: Sarah J. Maas excels in meticulous detailing of every incident that takes place in the book. Each of the characters have a very well developed arc and a depth to them, their conversations witty and lifelike. The series has had many layers to it which finally comes together in a full circle. Sarah also manages to give each main character a pivotal role in the story, each shining in their own way. The emotions are raw and real, hitting you right in the feels. Cons: (no spoiler) I felt like one of the core elements, something that had the power to change the entire story, was done injustice to. Also the book was bleak at some places, where just action wasn't enough and thus being mentally draining to read those few pages. Conclusion: It is a hard and emotionally daunting task to finish a series you love, especially when the book happens to be thousand pages long but Sarah pulls her readers to it effortlessly and also manages to make them stay with them till the very end to see them rattle the stars. All in all, a really amazing conclusion to an amazing series. Must read. Star Rating: 4.5/5 Age Recommendation: 15 and above.

Great story, definitely in love with the tog series. I wanted to collect all the books but unfortunately kingdom of ash came damaged especially on the cover so that's 3 stars. Other than that read the books, recommend them to everyone

"Kingdom of Ash" brings a spectacular close to the thrilling "Throne of Glass" series, and I couldn't be happier with the ending! Sarah J. Maas wraps up the epic journey of Aelin and her companions with mastery, tying together all the loose ends with grace and a deep emotional impact. The battles are grand, the stakes are higher than ever, and the emotional rollercoaster is intensely satisfying. This finale is a masterpiece of fantasy literature—so well done that it left me in awe. A perfect conclusion to a series that will forever hold a special place in my heart!
