The Core

The three the whole book revolves around — the assassin, the prince, and the captain.

Celaena Sardothien

Adarlan's Assassin · Champion of the King

Pulled out of the salt mines of Endovier to fight for her freedom — proud, smart, deadly, and far more dangerous than the people around her realize.

Dorian Havilliard

Crown Prince of Adarlan

Heir to a conquering empire, a prince who would rather be in a library — and the guy who walked into Endovier and pulled an assassin back into the world.

Enter →

Chaol Westfall

Captain of the Royal Guard

Twenty-two years old and already Captain of the Guard. Honor first, country second, and the assassin he's supposed to be guarding somewhere quietly underneath all of it.

Allies

A loyal friend in the castle, and a long-dead queen reaching across worlds.

Nehemia Ytger

Enter →

Elena

First Queen of Adarlan · Half-Fae Spirit

✦ III ✦

The Throne's Shadow
