Tower of Dawn

by Sarah J. Maas

Our rating

Spice 2/5 Darkness 3/5

Spice: mild. Darkness: dark.

Chaol goes to the southern continent looking for a healer and gets Yrene, who wants nothing to do with him. Lots of readers skip it and then regret it, because Kingdom of Ash leans on what happens here.
