A satisfying and fulfilling end to the epic fantasy series. - There is a lot going on in this final chapter of Sarah j Maas Throne of Glass series so the book is longer than most of the others but does not feel as if it is full of fluff but rather a great meaty book with just enough pages to to tie up the plot points and subplots neatly and leave the reader happy but wanting more. For those who read the last book review before deciding if they should read the series I will say that this epic fantasy will satisfy almost any reader of the genre. While the series itself starts out geared more towards young adults and those who love epic fantasy the last three books do up the ante up yet with the romantic scenes that have a romance bin feel to it in the love scenes. Out of this book which is 1000 pages you might have a handful of pages that are more steamy but I do think it is enough to take it from a PG-13 to closer to a rated R. So the series does swing a bit but the quality of writing remains high. Overall this book like most of the series is high-quality fantasy in the world building plot and setting. The characters come to life and have a depth to them. In this last book there is quite a bit of jumping around between the chapters two different points of views and for those who only read a little bit of a Time this might be a problem in keeping track of what's going on. Still the story is pretty straightforward for the most part. There is little to complain about and it was a joy to read. They were a few editorial mistakes very few considering the length of the book itself. I do think that that there is a bit of continuity error in the strength of the bad guys. In their introduction the Valg princess pretty hardcore individuals could barely be harmed outside of our main protagonist is magic. They had magic that could overwhelmed and blanket and entire area and who's magic could not be countered buy those of wind and such. However in this book we see that their magic is countered by magic that previous could not stop it and they are taken down by fairly easy means compared to there unstoppable nature in their introduction. Lol but the truth is part of the reason this disappointed me a bit was because they have been built up to be that awesome... Or terrifying. this can also be applied to the two main antagonist of the series in the final confrontation that was still exciting but left a little to be desired in my opinion from what was promised. Again this is a good read particularly when it comes to the action and pacing of the story itself. There is real emotion connected to the characters and when crap hits the fan the reader feels it. The relationships arcs between the characters grow and shift he weighs that while a bit predictable are nonetheless interesting. From beginning to end the story flows in such a way that it feels like you've read an entire book series in one book. Some of the side characters that seemed more time in previous works do feel slightly neglected but not enough to really complain about because when we do see them it is impactful. that is the glorious problem with having a book with such great characters is that side characters are still Side characters and have to give away to the main protagonist and such. in the end if you read this book series you will not be disappointed but you will be tired because it will keep you from sleeping because it's always just one more chapter. Review: IMMACULATE SERIES - A soul gripping, tear-jerking, whirlwind of a final book. One of the best reads I’ve had in a long time. Sarah makes you feel personally connected to each & every character & like we’re following them on this journey right next to them. Each character has depth & soul that makes you wanting to learn more. A beautiful end to the best series I’ve ever read. Highly recommend for everyone to delve into this series, and learn that sometimes a little kindness can go a long way.

An emotional and well-rounded ending to a series that has shaken me to my core.
I just finished this series a couple weeks ago and am just now recovering from the emotional rollercoaster. This book was intense, at times devastating, and well worth the entire book series to get here. While the early books in the series were fun reads, they didn't really grab my soul until I got to Heir of Fire. From there on I couldn't put the books down. I stayed up way too late reading till my eyes hurt. Sarah J Maas has a very effective style of writing that causes the reader to constantly be on a cliffhanger waiting to find out what happens to this character or that character next. I truly don't think there was a moment in any of the last 3 books where I wasn't tense and desperate to find out what comes next. I think doing a tandem read of Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn was the right choice but definitely elevated that tension. I honestly think the most surprising thing was how this book brought me to a place of love, understanding, and compassion for some of my least favorite characters. If you had asked me mid-way through the series what characters I liked or hated, my answers would have been a far cry from where they were at the end. Every character has a full arc, and none of them are surface level characters. They all have flaws and strengths. They all make poor choices that affect others. They all have emotional trauma they struggle to work through. While there are some aspects of this ending that I felt were a bit out of place in the story arc, most of the ending was well done and wrapped things up nicely. It will take a while before my soul is ready to do a re-read on this series, but I am looking forward to it when it happens.

Entertaining series that kept me turning pages until the very end!
This entire series was very entertaining and fun to read. Loved seeing the characters develop and grow over the course of the books. It will be a good one to share with my daughters so we can discuss our favorite characters and plot twists.

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.

’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.

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!
