About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas, read by Elizabeth Evans.

‘One of the best fantasy book series of the past decade’ TIME

Never trust an assassin.

Celaena’s story continues in this second book in the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas.

Celaena Sardothien won a brutal contest to become the King’s Champion. But she is far from loyal to the crown. Though she goes to great lengths to hide her secret, her deadly charade becomes more difficult when she realises she is not the only one seeking justice. Her search for answers ensnares those closest to her, and no one is safe from suspicion — not the Crown Prince Dorian; not Chaol, the Captain of the Guard; not even her best friend, Nehemia, a princess with a rebel heart.

Then, one terrible night, the secrets they have all been keeping lead to an unspeakable tragedy. As Celaena’s world shatters, she will be forced to decide once and for all where her true loyalties lie ... and what she is willing to fight for.

The second book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series returns readers to a land destroyed by liars, where one woman’s truth is the only thing that can save them all.

Amazing

Really enjoyed this book, more than the last one. I know we are still introducing lots of new characters and storylines but sometimes that makes it a bit hard to digest and I find myself reading some chapters twice to make I’ve got it all. Storyline was great and I really like the main characters

Superb!

This book got me good, and I am here for it! The performance was wonderfully spot on; every character on the paper came alive in its own special voice! Superb!

This is a million times better than book 1

The most insane reveals, which I won't spoil! Honestly I know book 1 was a tad slow but this one really heats up so definetly persevere with the series because lord have mercy the ending is pretty wild.

Silena definitely grows into herself a lot more and the world building gets extremely good. You will feel a million different ways about the captain. It 10/10

Good but not amazing

Good easy listen, it's certainly not up to Brandon Sanderson standards but worth a listen. The romance goes on a bit when all you want is for the story to continue. Good narrator.

Excellent and gripping

Truly excellent- just as good as book 1. Fast paced and gripping. Full of surprises. I can't wait to download the next one. Narration was faultless too. Best books I've read/listened to in a long time

Ahhh so good!!

So entertaining. So well paced. So enchanting. Literally all I want to do is keep listening to book after book but real life keeps getting in the way. You will not be disappointed to read/listen to this series.

Characters

I don’t think this is as strong as other books in this series. I hate how Chaol changes throughout this book it’s just so pathetic and he is pathetic - this is coming from someone who used to like him as a character! I love Dorian and I love seeing the conflict within himself and I love how he grows. I love that we’re moving onto the “Celaena” that I love.

pretty good entertainment.

I like the story and the concept .
The biggest drawback is the main characters bouncing between beeing helpless like a damsel in distress to invincible badass .
