Description
In Crown of Midnight, Celaena Sardothien serves the King of Adarlan as his Champion—an assassin with a contract that should end in freedom. But her missions are a lie: instead of murdering the king’s “traitors,” she fakes their deaths and helps them vanish, gambling that one mistake will get her and everyone she loves destroyed.
As rebel rumors spread through Rifthold and shadowy forces move inside the glass castle, Celaena’s fragile equilibrium shatters when Princess Nehemia is brutally murdered. Grief detonates into vengeance, and the search for the killer exposes a deeper conspiracy: forbidden Wyrdmarks, otherworldly gates, monsters created in secret, and a tyrant whose power may not be merely political. By the time Celaena is sent to Wendlyn on a deadly assignment, she has uncovered the first pieces of a world-ending puzzle—and the truth about herself changes everything.
