Empire of Storms By Sarah J Mass - Review

Hello all, 

So I'm here with the final throne of glass book. I've got the short stories one on my current reading list and look forward to sharing my thoughts on that one soon enough. Its been a good series to read this year. 

Empire of Storms - Sarah J Maas

Kingdoms collide in Sarah J. Maas's epic fifth installment in the New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series.
The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius. Loyalties have been broken and bought, friends have been lost and gained, and those who possess magic find themselves at odds with those who don't.
With her heart sworn to the warrior-prince by her side, and her fealty pledged to the people she is determined to save, Aelin will delve into the depths of her power to protect those she loves. But as monsters emerge from the horrors of the past, and dark forces become poised to claim her world, the only chance for salvation will lie in a desperate quest that may mark the end of everything Aelin holds dear.
In this breathtaking fifth installment of the New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series, Aelin will have to choose what--and who--to sacrifice if she's to keep the world of Erilea from breaking apart.

3/5 

I had loved the series up to this book. This one seemed to drag on in places and sometimes I was getting confused by the jumps that were thrown around and sometimes felt it took away from the flow of the story. I had to stop at certain points to refocus my mind on the new character being introduced. I did like the short sentences that at times would make the pace of the book so much easier to read.  The story was great however it was just how they executed it that I didn't like. I know that there is a lot of people who don't agree with me but this is just how I felt as I got further and further into it. 

I also wanted a closure for the end of the story that I didn't feel we got. I know there is a spin-off series I just found myself wishing that she had cut this into another three books. Maybe she might have been able to give a great ending to a story that offered the reader so much.
