Throne of Glass Novellas

The Assassin and the Pirate Lord is one of four novellas featured in The Assassin’s Blade collection. All four novellas are prequels to the main series and so are set before the events of the first book, Throne of Glass. I would recommend reading the novellas in the following order:

  • The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
  • The Assassin and the Desert
  • The Assassin and the Underworld
  • The Assassin and the Empire
