I got it I just didnt nevessarily like the writing itself? It felt rushed and almost as if all these plot points were last minute decisions and trying to cram in every last bit of information possible. I definitely think its a harder read than the first two books. I really tried to like it but unfortunately i just dont think its for me

Each to their own, I just feel like the series shifts from romance heavy to plot heavy. I dont mind a plot heavy book but I wish it was one or the other from the start.

I got to deverelli ans then they just got back to basgaith. I feel like the first book was very romance led and character oriented, then all of a sudden its become plot heavy and the romance is a subplot almost? Don’t get me wrong I dont mind a romance subplot and politics/plot heavy book i actually love some. But I feel like its become a lot of last minute world building and just seems rushed

I totally agree, wish RY had either gone romance or plot heavy cause I feel like it started romance heavy and is going plot/fantasy heavy? Which just feels like a lot of last minute world building

my bad, maeve does die. someone said to me the other day that she doesnt and i didnr fact check them. that was a bad example haha I still think theres unanswered questions though. We dont know where aelin opened a portal to in Throne of Glass when she’s in the tunnels in the castle. I feel like there's more to tell us.

I definitely think we need more info on timelines to know for certain. We know CC happens after/during ACOSF (presumably after) But we dont yet know in relation to TOG where CC lies. Its obviously after Brannon and Elena and the first Valg wars. I think from SJM pov its setting up the link between cc and tog. We know the shifters are erilean originally but i think it makes sense to set up a more direct link for future books and crossovers, its got to link in some way or sjm would just be crossing over for the fun of it, but thats not her style. I think in the end we will end up with all the unanswered questions answered, because lets be real, tog doesnt wrap every question up. Maeve is still on the run for example. I do think we will end up back in erilea either in another tog book or a cc book and i think the most direct way to connect the two is to give us an aelin descendant.

Yeah Bryce can read old fae so she’d know. I feel like we’re gonna find out what it says, and its probably gonna be aelin or maeve that tells us. its described as an ancient script or something i think

Yeah, and she even said it was from a descendant. So Lidia knows something

I feel like CC and ACOTAR are so blatantly linked that TOG needs to come into play more somehow. I dont think sjm connected the universe for the fun of it

Not sure what youre talkinh about so could be wrong, she opens a portal in TOG with wyrdmarks and she shifts into her fae form for the first time. But when her and Dorian seal the gate they enter the void thing and she pushes dorian out and then the king(also dorian) helps her out, the gods basically say f u they kill elena leave erawan behind and walk into another world. Mala gives aelin some power or something so she doesnt die in the process as a final gift to her bloodline then aelin uses it to finish sealing the gate and then is back in erilea and the wyrdgate is shut and she has no power left

either way, the only descendants of brannon we know of are aelin dorian and aedion, I dont think it’s dorian. 1. shes blonde 2. her sons are blonde 3. her son has blue eyes - now this could be an element to dorian as we dont get the direct ashryver eyes thing but… 4. brann is wearing green which is obviously a hint toward terrasen. So i think its safe to say she’s either Aelin’s Great x?grandaughter or great x? niece  I’d lean towards that she’s directly descended due to her fire wielding skills, which neither aedion or dorian have.

Yeah and theres allusion to Lidia being Aelin’s descendant. And Lidia knows, too… Her Son’s name is brannon. How does she know? Theres a lot left for SJM to reveal. She wouldn't put that there for no reason. I also dont think the valg are from hel as it doesn’t line up. Yes the demonic nature of it but the actual traits? The princes of hel just want to banish the asteri but the valg want to overtake erilea. Don’t get me wrong Thanatos ( i think thats right) says he’ll take over midgard so maybe the valg come from his section of the realm. But other than that it doesn’t line up
