by Sarah J. MaasSeries: book 1
Bloomsbury USA Children’s Books
In a land without magic, Celaena Sardothien is released from prison to serve as the king’s assassin—that is, as long as she can defeat twenty-three killers, thieves, and warriors in a competition. But something evil dwells in the castle of glass—and it’s there to kill. When her competitors start dying, Celaena’s fight for freedom becomes a desperate quest to root out the evil before it destroys her—and her world.
