Book Review: Tower of Dawn by Sarah J. Maas

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Now that I’ve finished this book, it pains me to say that I did NOT want to read this when I first learned that Celaena aka Aelin Ashryver Whitethorn Galathynius was not in it. I really believed that I didn’t want to read Chaol’s point of view, especially given the way the previous book, Empire of Storms ended, but WOW was I silly to think that way.

Tower of Dawn is fantastic, and the newly introduced characters are wonderful! The introduction of a whole new world that we hadn’t yet been exposed to as well as the cultural differences added layer after layer of greatness to an already epic series.
This book created more depth to the story and also made the stakes that much higher. If I could give anyone reading this some advice, read it. Even if they’re debating whether or not they should bother with this book because, like me, they are initially opposed to such a drastic point of view change, read it.

With excellent character development, this side quest for Chaol Westfall is spectacular and the perfect addition to this series.

Author, philosopher, military wife, and mother of four boys, in my free time (haha, what is that?), I am a voracious reader and lover of large cups of tea. While I enjoy reading everything, my favorite genre is fantasy. Some of my hobbies include reading and reviewing books on various online platforms, entering writing competitions, feeding the crows that visit my home, and overthinking. I have dabbled in short stories and writing poetry, publishing a small book of my poems in 2022, with an independent publisher. I enjoy keeping the world up-to-date on my writing, reading, and random thoughts on my blog.

    1. I feel like I was also late to the bandwagon, but I am glad I decided to finally take the plunge! I finished the Throne of Glass series and have moved on to Maas’ A Court of Thorns and Roses series. Also excellent! I’d love to know your thoughts once you read them!
