Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 33
In a space-faring civilization where a single woman is increasingly disenfranchised, the star pilot Silence Leigh is defrauded from her inheritance by a greedy competitor. Forced to ally with two men, Silence is dragged into a deadly political struggle, and is tantalized by the hints of the legendary Earth, as well as the dread and the glory of Magi's power. Her dreams of having her own ship and of escape from the Hegemony's oppressions take on new direction and focus when she joins the crew of "The Sun-Treader".

In this stunning sequel to The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, one blind woman will challenge the will of the gods and change the fate of the world. In the city of Shadow, beneath the World Tree, alleyways shimmer with magic and godlings live hidden among mortalkind. Oree Shoth, a blind artist, takes in a strange homeless man on an impulse. This act of kindness engulfs Oree in a nightmarish conspiracy. Someone, somehow, is murdering godlings, leaving their desecrated bodies all over the city. And Oree's guest is at the heart of it....

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.

DON'T READ THIS FIRST
Revisado: 08-04-19
Having read some of the reviews I found that there was a few common misconceptions among what people were thinking.
1) That Celena is spoiled and sullen. Yes. She is both of those things, but having read the whole series this is definitely NOT who she is. I say that I'm a slut for character development and this series is a prime example of that. Keep in mind that she's only 16 and many of us were sullen at that point in time. Why I recommend not reading this first is because you get a chance to learn about her in the first few books, then go back and see how she's truly changed.
2) That the characters are one dimensional. This one is somewhat true. While you don't get to learn much about everyone, it's very difficult to get to know a fully realized person in a few hundred pages.
Bottom line. This book is not an essential read for the series to understand what's going on but it does provide a whole lot of insight into characters and references made later. If nothing else you get to understand what happens with Sam. She makes many references to Sam and you never truly understand until you read this book, and when you do it's completely heartbreaking. In my personal opinion, read them in the order they came out, Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, Heir of Fire, THEN Assassins Blade.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk
