Throne of Glass: Chapters 23 - 26 (Part 2)

Book Talk for BookTok

Best friends Jac and Amy conduct a literary analysis of Sarah J. Maas's debut novel, Throne of Glass. In this episode, they discuss chapters 23 - 26.

Each episode is broken into 2 parts. This is part 2 of this week's episode. Come back next Tuesday where we discuss chapters 27 - 31.

(Spoilers for Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, and Heir of Fire will be discussed. Any larger series or other SJM spoilers will be reserved for the end of Thursday's episode in part 2.)

Every episode, Jac and Amy use their combined 13 years of literary academic training to analyze and give voice to reasons why you may love or hate today's popular books. They embrace and respect modern fantasy, romance, and romantasy books written by women. And so, it is in their nature to analyze these books as you would any other novel you might have discussed in school.

Chapter summary for this week's episodes:

Celaena dreams of being broken in Endovier, and is saved by Chaol waking her to the day of Samhuinn. Though she is able to spend time with her friends in the palace throughout the day, Celaena is confined to her bedroom during the evening’s festivities. But a phantom breeze calls Celaena’s attention to draft in her room, which leads her to a hidden door safeguarding secret passages to forgotten parts of Rifthold’s stone castle. During her illicit exploration, Celaena uncovers a secret route to escape the castle and a hidden window to spy on the Great Hall. When she realizes Chaol is returning to check on her, Celaena rushes back to her room, where Chaol and Dorian both pay her a visit. But the night’s adventures don’t end there, and Celaena is greeted by her dead ancestor, fate, and the evil that lurks beneath the castle. The morning brings ill tidings of another death of a king’s champion.
