The Vibe

Aelin's journey has brought her to the edge of everything she has fought to protect. Trapped in an iron coffin and isolated from her court, she must summon every ounce of strength she possesses while holding onto the hope that her sacrifice will give her people a chance at a better future.

Meanwhile, the friends, allies, and warriors who have gathered around Aelin face battles of their own. Scattered across Erilea, they must overcome impossible odds, forge unexpected alliances, and decide what they are willing to sacrifice for the kingdom they believe in. As long-separated threads finally begin to converge, the bonds between them become their greatest source of strength.

Massive in scope and deeply emotional, Kingdom of Ash is the explosive finale to Sarah J. Maas's beloved Throne of Glass series. With epic battles, powerful magic, fiercely loyal friendships, devastating choices, sweeping romance, and a heroine who refuses to surrender, this is fantasy romance at its most unforgettable.
