Resumen del Editor

Bloomsbury presents Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, read by Elizabeth Evans.

Lethal. Loyal. Legendary.

Enter the world of Throne of Glass with the first book in the #1 bestselling series by Sarah J. Maas.

In a land without magic, an assassin is summoned to the castle. She has no love for the vicious king who rules from his throne of glass, but she has not come to kill him. She has come to win her freedom. If she defeats twenty-three murderers, thieves, and warriors in a competition, she will be released from prison to serve as the King’s Champion.

Her name is Celaena Sardothien.

The Crown Prince will provoke her. The Captain of the Guard will protect her. And a princess from a faraway country will befriend her. But something rotten dwells in the castle, and it’s there to kill. When her competitors start dying mysteriously, one by one, Celaena’s fight for freedom becomes a fight for survival—and a desperate quest to root out the evil before it destroys her world.

Thrilling and fierce, Throne of Glass is the first book in the #1 New York Times bestselling series that has captivated listeners worldwide.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"One of the best fantasy book series of the past decade." (Time Magazine on the Throne of Glass series)

"Celaena is as much an epic hero as Frodo or Jon Snow!" (New York Times best-selling author Tamora Pierce on the Throne of Glass series)

"Epic fantasy gold." (USA Today on the Throne of Glass series)

In LOVE!!

Wonderful story line! Absolutely addictive from the beginning!! This is a must read for anyone!!

Very refreshing

I really liked how immersive and dynamic the characters are. My favorite character is definitely Princess Nehemia. She’s giving me very much black girl magic...lowkey. Even when she doesn’t appear she’s very memorable,calls attention and you wanna know what she’s up to.
There is somewhat of a love story but it doesn’t completely overwhelm the story either. There issss a Triangle but it’s fine.
The way that magic and the fights are depicted really excite me and when it’s being read aloud its really immersive and you almost feel like you’re on the sidelines or in the story when it’s happening.
The ONLY two things I struggled with is accepting that Celaena is actually an Assassin,because while she is a skilled fighter and she’s very smart,very sharp,she just seems like she more an opportunist than an actual assassin. Calaena gets caught slipping or lacking several times lol However I didn’t let it distract me from the overall story. If you tryna read about a strong heroine who isn’t boring and not always “smirking” this is what you looking for. The second thing is we get a POV from a character that I really did not care for and I feel like we could’ve gotten a POV from the King rather than them. I saw there’s more books though so the author might be setting something up. The performance was okay. I like how the VA portrayed different voices , just some of the diction of them talking and what was being said sometimes didn’t match the mood of the scenes. Overall I really like the book and I’m looking forward to read/listen to all the other books like a marathon lol I’m trying to see what the future holds for Calaena next!

Best series ever

This series is a complete escape, your mind will get to explore the amazing Sarah j mass universe while your heart goes through all the aches and pains of heartbreak and triumph. If you were on the fence of starting this adventure look no further I am here to tell you to do it. I’m near the end of this adventure and I wish I could listen to it for the first time all over again.

Thoroughly entertained

I love a book of adventure with a strong female central character. I have finished two books so far and have been thoroughly entertained. I look forward to more.

amazing story!!!!!

i don't know why people say that she doesn't seem strong, she was forced into being a assassin when she was a small child, and she's still a person with emotions... I love her character still

Elizabeth Evans is the best

My favorite author with my favorite narrator. Another excellent book by Sarah J Maas. So addicting and such a great love story on top of a great story. I wonder what’s gonna happen next.

Amazing book

I love the The throne of glass book series is my personal favorite would definitely recommend.

Favorite book ever.

I’ve read this book over and over again and was so happy it was on audible so I could listen to it while driving. Loved it so much. It just brought the book to life. 10/10

Narrator Probs

The story was ok, not great, but I am really surprised that the narrator hasn’t gotten more negative reviews. The men all have very weird deep voices and pretty much anytime any royalty speaks (king, prince, princess, queen) it is always slllloooowww. I can’t get past it. It was just all wrong. I may read the next book sometime but probably won’t listen if this is the narrator for all of them.

loved it and now I need to hear the rest!!

I loved this! hearing it really got me interested in the rest of the series. I can't get enough!
