Books to read next
Every book here was chosen because it captures what made Throne of Glass special — not just the genre, but the feeling.
A Court of Thorns and Roses
A mortal huntress is taken to the land of the Fae — and discovers the dangerous world beneath the glamour.
Maas's other major series. ACOTAR is darker, the romance is more central, and it's set in a completely different world.

Crescent City
A half-Fae woman investigates the murder of her best friend in a city that runs on magic and corruption.
