of course he must. he's Dorian! He'll be king! but I do get her, seeing her friend like that must have killed her...

I just read a certain scene about Lysandra and I love her, she's amazing. :D

(1) How do you feel about the pace so far? Did you expect her to meet up with Arobynn so early in the book? Was their meeting how you expected it to happen?

the pace was incredible. I actually loved meeting Arobynn like that, it was amazing. And I hate him, true, but I'm so intrigued by him and I can totally see the pull he had on her all those years.

(2) What do you think about Aelin's deal with Arobynn? Do you think it was right for her to agree to it?

It's not like she had that many choices...

(3) Chaol and Aelin see each other for the first time in months. What did you think about their exchange?

hmmm, so, I like Chaol, and I still like him a lot, but I like where they are right now.

a) Did you feel like they were out of character?

nop, not really. they are both colder, sure, but he always blamed magic, she already blamed him before. they just don't have anything to lose or to hold on into each other

b) Chaol still thinks of magic as problematic and that Aelin is a monster. Do you agree with him? How did you feel when he said it out loud?

i felt like he learned nothing from Dorian. But mostly I think he's hurting... he's being a fool, but that's what he believed for his whole life, it's hard to change your beliefs like that

c) Chaol is reluctant on freeing magic because he thinks it will cause chaos and the Aelin would take revenge upon the innocents in Adarlan. Do you agree?

I don't think she would, unless her own people was in danger. But he has seen her seeking out revenge, and it was frightening.

(4) We see Kaltain and see what has been done to her these past months. She now bears a collar like Dorian. Do you think there's a Valg prince inside her? Do you sympathize with her?

I think her case is a bit different. I think that her Prince comes and goes, whether it's her own doing or the Duke's, I'm still not sure

(5) Do you believe Lysandra's claims? Do you think she was being honest about her warning about Arobynn or it was all a ploy conceived by Arobynn himself?

I'll cheat, because I know better, but I never thought she was lying

a) Has you perception of Lysandra change from The Assassin's Blade to now?

I kind of liked Lysandra in the assassin's blade. I thought that Celaena never really gave her a chance, and Sam thought she was ok. But sure, she's awesome now!


(6) Aelin tells Chaol that the only way to save Dorian is to kill him (fire or beheading). After reading his point of view, seeing him through Aedion's perspective, and how the collars affected Narouk in Heir of Fire, do you think all is lost with Dorian? Do you think that they only way to free them is to kill him?

No, I believe there's another way, because Dorian is everything and he can never die. But I do agree with Aelin, and I totally understand her, and I wouldn't be mad if she actually did it... because it would be a better fate than to be bound to the Valg prince

(uff... it took me a LONG time to get around to this ;) )

Hiii! I'm so excited about this! I'm Cristina from https://tinyobsessions.wordpress.com/ :D
