Queen of Shadows (Throne of Glass)

Product Information

Rokutaro knows that he'd lose a straight up, drawn out war with the Shadowkhan, so is seeking to gather up his power, strike them with the unexpected, and force them to take risks that he can then take advantage of. She was fire, and light, and ash, and embers. She was Aelin Fireheart, and she bowed for no one and nothing, save the crown that was hers by blood and survival and triumph.” She 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’s triumphant return. In his second scene in the new reality, Shendu is shown relaxing in a bath, reflecting on enjoying the simple joys in life. The First Battle of Awaji, as a Gani army led by Tsume clashes with the forces of Tobe, led by Yasashi, Murakami, Gurando, and Himitsu.

Everyone Celaena Sardothien loves has been taken from her. But she's at last returned to the empire—for vengeance, to rescue her once-glorious kingdom, and to confront the shadows of her past... Evil Power Vacuum: Hiruzen being sealed leaves the other Generals, and the Shadowkhan as a whole, in total disarray. Himitsu gets his arm below the elbow shot off by one of Rosuto's arrows. He regrows it thanks to a potion, only for Gurando to rip it off again. Then he reattaches it upon entering his short-lived Super Mode. During the First Battle of Awaji, Yasashi cuts off one of Tsume's claws, while Gurando breaks the other off with his mace. Aelin flees the throne room and is pursued by Dorian. Chaol stops the King and distracts him so he can’t go after Aelin. Aelin and Dorian have an epic fight. It’s awesome. He stabs her. It’s also awesome.

The weapon is two towers made up of a mirror that could amplify powers, which the King wants to use with Kaltain’s shadowfire.

Mook Lieutenant: Jonin Toda to Hiruzen. The job used to be Tarakudo's, but he disappeared with the last Queen and is presumed dead. The book gets right into it by throwing us into Dorian’s mind, which is being controlled by the Valg. It’s all very upsetting because he can’t remember much of anything, and no one else has noticed anything is wrong. Maybe there is something you’re afraid to say, or someone you’re afraid to love, or somewhere you’re afraid to go. It’s gonna hurt. It’s gonna hurt because it matters.”Didn't Think This Through: The human forces conjure a massive storm as they head into a naval battle against the Shadowkhan fleet... which is mostly composed of Squid Khan, who unlike the humans are not impaired if they happen to get swept overboard or sunk by the storm. Manon does not agree to free them as Asterin wants, and Asterin is demoted again. Elide shares that she knew Aelin as a child and hopes that she is still alive. Elide is slowly stealing supplies from the kitchen to escape and disappear forever. What if we go on,' he said, 'only to more pain and despair? What if we go on, only to find a horrible friend waiting for us?' La Résistance: The Shogunate in the Shadows, the elite group put together by Lord Rokutaro to combat the Shadowkhan. Well-Intentioned Extremist: Yasashi is perfectly willing to kill a defenseless Jade if it might end the war.
