i loved sam, i wanted to marry sam, and i ugh i absolutely hated and loved this book all at the same time. some of the novellas are cool like the one about yrene and the one where she meets ansel of Briarcliff, and i would recommend reading this after you finish the series.

Celaena Sardothien is her kingdom's most feared assassin. Though she works for the powerful and ruthless Assassin's Guild, Celaena yields to no one and trusts only her fellow killer for hire, Sam.
When Celaena's scheming master, Arobynn Hamel, dispatches her on missions that take her from remote islands to hostile deserts, she finds herself acting independently of his wishes-and questioning her own allegiance. Along the way, she makes friends and enemies alike, and discovers that she feels far more for Sam than just friendship. But by defying Arobynn's orders, Celaena risks unimaginable punishment, and with Sam by her side, he is in danger, too. They will have to risk it all if they hope to escape Arobynn's clutches-and if they fail, they'll lose not just a chance at freedom, but their lives . . .
A prequel to Throne of Glass, this collection of five novellas offers readers a deeper look into the history of this cunning assassin and her enthralling-and deadly-world.

A prequel to the Throne of Glass books, this collection of novellas narrates the past of the best assassin of Erilea: Celaena Sardothien. These stories give more backstory to Celaena, and help us understand why she is the way that she is. Many of the events that happen here are narrated in passing in the other books, so it is better to read before, since they wouldn't be considered spoilers.
I love how Sarah J. Maas writes! She puts so much drama on one page! These books in here are good especially "The Assassin and The Healer."It makes me look forward to reading! I love this book since so many people say girls can't do anything. Well bam! There is an assassin thats considered The Best In Adarlan. You guy need to read it. Im right now on "The Assassin and The Empire." Celeana's final journey before her oblivion.
really good book
