Review

Tower of Dawn is the sixth book in the Throne of Glass series and focuses on Chaol Westfall and his journey to heal his legs and spine. This book takes a very different perspective from the previous books and introduces us into more of the political landscape from across the sea, which offers a fresh perspective on the series.

At the start, Chaol was one of my least favorite characters, but this book shows him in a more vulnerable and complex light that is makes him seem more relatable to the reader. His personal struggles add depth to his characters and makes me appreciate why Maas decided to have a book focused on him.

I chose to tandem read this book with Empire of Storms and I would highly recommend to put in the effort to tandem read. Since both books happen simultaneously, the way how timelines intertwine creates for a really complicated and beautifully written piece. The only reason it is rated 4 stars is because I do believe it drags on for a little bit, but it leads up to Kingdom of Ash perfectly.
