But she\u2019s at last returned to the empire\u2014for vengeance, to rescue her once-glorious kingdom, and to confront the shadows of her past\u2026<br \/>\nShe has embraced her identity as Aelin Galathynius, Queen of Terrasen. But before she can reclaim her throne, she must fight.<br \/>\nShe will fight for her cousin, a warrior prepared to die for her. She will fight for her friend, a young man trapped in an unspeakable prison. And she will fight for her people, enslaved to a brutal king and awaiting their lost queen\u2019s triumphant return.<\/p>\n<h2>Review:<\/h2>\n<p>Aelin is back.\u00a0 The Queen of Terrasen has returned.\u00a0 Only no one knows she is back in Rifthold just yet.\u00a0 She is back with plans.\u00a0 Plans to free her cousin, get her amulet back and pay some people back for the wrongs they have done.\u00a0 Working with the rebels and Chaol she must fight for those who can&#8217;t.\u00a0 Against so many odds without her magic she must use what she has always used, her skills as a master assassin.\u00a0 The Queen is back so the King will do all he can to stop her and turn those with her against her. Can Aelin do what fate has forced her and rise up and become what she has always been meant to be or will she lose more of those who are important to her?<br \/>\nI LOVE this series.\u00a0 I am completely addicted.\u00a0 Though I have to say I was a bit sad at the beginning.\u00a0 One of my favorite characters really changes and it saddened me.\u00a0 Thank goodness it gets better fast.\u00a0 Also, I can&#8217;t help but adore how Aelin really comes into her own.\u00a0 She has now accepted who she is and what she is meant to become.\u00a0 Though her feelings are still strong she has learned to become very queen like and overcome those who aim to hurt her.\u00a0 You also, can&#8217;t help but be in awe with her strategies and fighting.\u00a0 She has always been awesome but this really showcases how she has grown in that respect.\u00a0 It isn&#8217;t just Aelin&#8217;s story though.\u00a0 Manon, Chaol, Dorian and now Elide Lochan develop into very interesting and intrigal pieces in this series.\u00a0 They all connect in one way or another.\u00a0 These side characters truly add a depth to this series that makes it even more interesting.\u00a0 I can&#8217;t say enough about this series and the very talented Sarah J. Maas.\u00a0 All I can say to those who haven&#8217;t picked up this series is that you are truly missing out on something fantastic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can&#8217;t wait to share this with you.\u00a0 I have completely fallen in love with this series.\u00a0 The continuation of the Throne of Glass series was something I was anticipating every since I finished Heir of Fire.\u00a0 Queen of Shadows is full of all the excitement this series has\u00a0become known for.\u00a0 For my full review&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[1229,1342,1663,1724],"class_list":["post-3104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-book-reviews","tag-queen-of-shadows","tag-sarah-j-maas","tag-throne-of-glass","tag-urban-fantasy"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Review: Queen of Shadows (Throne of Glass #4) by Sarah J.
