First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros #1: Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas




Every Tuesday, Bibliophile by the Sea hosts this book meme, First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros sharing the first paragraph, maybe two, of a book that we're reading or plan to read soon. 




1st Paragraph:

"After a year of slavery in the Salt Mines of Endovier, Celaena Sardothien was accustomed to being escorted everywhere in shackles and at sword-point.  Most of the thousands of slaves in Endovier received similar treatment- though an extra half-dozen guards always walked Celaena to and from the mines.  That was expected by Adarlan's most notorious assassin.  What she did not usually expect, however, was a hooded man in black at her side-as there was now."
