Throne of Glass Paperback Box Set

Cured my reading slump
Great series! Good world building, fully developed characters that you want to root for, and epic adventures. There are highs and lows for many characters and many curveballs that I could not predict. This series really has it all. Very fun read, even if I thought a few things were cringe. I recommend reading Assassin’s Blade first. I went straight to Throne of Glass and needed to know what happened next. I still haven’t read Assassin’s Blade and probably won’t go back to it. I thought Throne of Glass was a whole different vibe than the following books, but that’s okay. I struggled a bit with Tower of Dawn but it ended up being worth the read. That was really the only part that didn’t have me hooked. The lulls are worth pushing through, the build up is worth it. If you’re looking for an adventure/fantasy series with a strong FMC, I would highly recommend this series.

NO SPOILERS fabulous fantasy series
If you want a fabulous fantasy story about some very complicated characters with great development arcs, you're in the right place! Great series. I ripped through the whole thing in a little over a week.Personally, I do NOT recommend reading the prequel in between books 2 and 3 (which I think is actually recommended by the author). I did not, and I thought it was great. The prequel gives you the backstories of several supporting characters that pop up later in the series, but I thought it was much more fun to read the series and then go back to read the backstories later. There was also zero chance of me being willing to put down the main plot after book 2 and reading backstories for a while.Although SJM is known for her "spicy" writing, there is actually very little explicit smut (which is good in my opinion, phrases like "throbbing member" make me laugh and cringe, I can't do it). If you're looking for maximum smut, this is not it. "Empire of Storms" probably has the majority of the smutty scenes -- definitely the most explicit descriptions out of any of the books. Most of the other books have some steamy romance, but generally end before clothing comes off.

Fast Paced, continent Spanning Adventure!
Great series of books with strong, loveable protagonists. Gets very hot and steamy at times. The bad guys are a little one dimensional but all in all, a binge worthy romp.

What an amazing series!
So so happy to own this series! Such a beautiful hardcover set, and was a great deal. Arrived in perfect condition, with no missing pages (I was scared because some reviews said otherwise).. Treat yourself and buy the set <3

Best Series I've Ever Read
This is quite possibly the best book series I've ever read. The characters have depth and the story takes you on a roller-coaster of emotions. Sarah J Maas inspires us to overcome our own personal demons by giving our main characters growth and development. Plus who doesn't like a story with hot fae?

Nice set!
Just as described. I love a hardback book. On the second book and almost done, starts slow but definitely a lot of world and character building! Excited to dive into this 8 book series!

Series was amazing, order was incorrect.
Fantastic, fantastic series. I had read the ACOTAR series and someone had told me the Throne of Glass series was even better and I jumped at the chance to read it. They did not lie. Sarah J. Maas is a fabulous wordsmith and I held my breath on more than one occasion. This Amazon bundle however messed up the order of the books and I was three books in when I realized it. The last book on this digital bundle is actually the first book of the series. Make sure to jump to the end and read the Assassins Blade before reading the first book on your kindle.Again, amazing series and I loved the call back to the ACOTAR series toward the end. I will continue to follow your stories as I read the Crescent City series. Highly recommend!
