Crown of Midnight (Throne of Glass #2) by Sarah J Maas
From the throne of glass rules a king with a fist of iron and a soul as black as pitch. Assassin Celaena Sardothien won a brutal contest to become his Champion. Yet Celaena is far from loyal to the crown. She hides her secret vigilantly; she knows that the man she serves is bent on evil.
Keeping up the deadly charade becomes increasingly difficult when Celaena realizes she is not the only one seeking justice. As she tries to untangle the mysteries buried deep within the glass castle, her closest relationships suffer. It seems no one is above questioning her allegiances—not the Crown Prince Dorian; not Chaol, the Captain of the Guard; not even her best friend, Nehemia, a foreign princess with a rebel heart.
Then one terrible night, the secrets they have all been keeping lead to an unspeakable tragedy. As Celaena's world shatters, she will be forced to give up the very thing most precious to her and decide once and for all where her true loyalties lie... and whom she is ultimately willing to fight for.
This is what I say :
I first read Throne of Glass in November last year. It was the first book in the series but I stop at book one as I was just 'giving it a try'.
I quite enjoy the story and the characters.in books one. Thus when opportunity present itself for me to get hold of book two and the rest of the titles in the series, I was quick to grab it, Crown of Midnight is the second book in the series.
Book two is all about things that happen in teh castle where Caleana is the King's champion and carries out his assassination on his behalf. It also explores her relationship between Princess Nehemia, Prince Dorian and Captain Chaol. However, no one, even Caleana are who they seems to be be and each and everyone of them has secrets to hide from the true intention of Pricess Nehemia, the secret power of Prince Diorian, and even Celaena is not who she said she is.
I guess you can even say that Crown of Midnight was a better read than Throne of Glass but then it would not be very fair to say such as both books are equally good.
Next up would be Heir of Fire.
