Title: A Court of Frost and Starlight
Series: A Court of Thorns and Roses
Author: Sarah J. Maas
Blurb:
The Winter Solstice. In a week. I was still new enough to being High Lady that I had no idea what my formal role was to be. If we'd have a High Priestess do some odious ceremony, as lanthe had done the year before. A year. Gods, nearly a year since Rhys had called in his bargain, desperate to get me away from the poison of the Spring Court to save me from my despair. Had he been only a minute later, the Mother knew what would have happened. Where I'd now be. Snow swirled and eddied in the garden, catching in the brown fibers of the burlap covering the shrubs My mate who had worked so hard and so selflessly, all without hope that I would ever be with him We had both fought for that love, bled for it. Rhys had died for it.
Review:
"To the blessed darkness from which we are born, and to which we return."
ACOFAS is a novella based in Prythian taking place AFTER the war from a Court of Wings and Ruin (you NEED to read the main trilogy before diving into these novellas). And you get glimpses into the point of views of the characters- what they think, feel, or are going through.
I loved this book. It was like visiting old friends you haven't seen in awhile. Yes it was shorter than the rest (it IS a Novella after all). But it still had what we would expect from Prythain, from the Night Court- which is rebuilding after the war, and the inner circle- Feyre & her family- trying to find out where they belong, and what they need to do- not just for the court, and each other, but for themselves.
I missed these characters and this world so much. And I cannot wait to read more.
5⭐ out of 5⭐.
