On a remote island in a tropical sea, Celaena Sardothien, feared assassin, has come for retribution. She's been sent by the Assassin's Guild to collect on a debt they are owed by the Lord of the Pirates. But when Celaena learns that the agreed payment is not in money, but in slaves, her mission suddenly changes - and she will risk everything to right the wrong she's been sent to bring about.

I would give it five stars, if not for Celaena's arrogance, especially at the beginning. The ending totally surprised me and even though I don't like novellas, I enjoyed this one very much.
I can't wait to read more about Celaena, Sam and the other characters!
A fun, quick, entertaining read. I had fun reading about Rolfe and Celaena first interactions.
Not really interested in Celaena and Sam's dynamic though.
I'm not sure how to rate and review novellas, Most Of The time they are boring and add nothing to the series so I skip them usually, however I want to continue this series so I decided to reread the ones I have read and thought it would be interesting that I read this and Iam glad that I did.
I like how passionate and cleaver Celaena is, and seeing her life as an Assassin is good like most of the time whenever someone is an Assassin or works with mafia or anything they only show you their bad side and when they want you to see them as good or they're not as bad as they seem they show a side they didn't before to trick into thinking you have missed something about them and I HATE when anybody does that. She is definitely the same person I have read the first 3 books, she just happens to be raised by masters who taught her to kill and she is supposed to pay them for raising her which I think is messed up, now despite that she sees them doing something she feels strongly against so she does everything to stop even though it could have ended up badly for her. I think I'm giving this 4.5 stars
