The A Court of Thorns and Roses Series
The story of the A Court of Thorns and Roses series follows the journey of the tale of Feyre, as she is brought into the faerie lands of Prythian, after murdering a faerie.
- A Court of Thorns and Roses – Nineteen-year-old Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, and a beast-like creature demands punishment for it. She is taken to the land of the faeries, by her captor, Tamlin, who is an immortal faerie himself. She comes to live with him at his estate. He is a High Lord of Prythian, and Feyre begins to realize that what she has previously learned about the dangerous world of the faeries is all a lie.
- A Court of Mist and Fury – Feyre has survived the trials of Amarantha and has become a High Fae, but she remains human inside and has to come to terms with the awful acts she performed to save Tamlin’s people. To save his people and herself, Feyre had to make a deal with Rhysand, the High Lord of the Night Court, and she had to satisfy it.
- A Court of Wings and Ruin – Feyre returns to the Spring Court and Tamlin to spy on him, as well as the King of Hybern and his invading forces that want to take over Prythian. But to do so, she has to play a game of deceit and lie to those closest to her to get what she needs. As war surrounds her and her allies, Feyre needs to decide whom she can trust when it comes to the High Lords of Prythians, her family, and her closest friends.
- A Court of Frost and Starlight – novella. Months after the war for Prythian has ended, Feyre, Rhysand, and their friends rebuild the Night Court after the attack from Hybern. Winter Solstice is approaching, and the court prepares for the festive season. As Feyre continues to get used to her role as High Lady of the Night Court, she must navigate around the scars that the war has brought upon them all.
- A Court of Silver Flames – Ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, Nesta Archeron has struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. The one person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred warrior whose position in Rhysand and Feyre’s Night Court keeps him constantly in Nesta’s orbit. Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. And the key to halting them might very well rely on Cassian and Nesta facing their haunting pasts.
The Crescent City Series
The story of the Crescent City series follows Bryce Quinlan, half-Fae and half-human, as she seeks revenge in a contemporary fantasy world of magic, danger, and searing romance.
- House of Earth and Blood – Bryce Quinlan had the perfect life-working hard all day and partying all night-until a demon murdered her closest friends, leaving her bereft, wounded, and alone. When the accused is behind bars but the crimes start up again, Bryce finds herself at the heart of the investigation. She’ll do whatever it takes to avenge their deaths.
- House of Sky and Breath – Bryce Quinlan and Hunt Athalar are trying to get back to normal―they may have saved Crescent City, but with so much upheaval in their lives lately, they mostly want a chance to relax. Slow down. Figure out what the future holds.
- House of Flame and Shadow – Bryce Quinlan never expected to see a world other than Midgard, but now that she has, all she wants is to get back. Everything she loves is in Midgard: her family, her friends, her mate. Stranded in a strange new world, she’s going to need all her wits about her to get home again. And that’s no easy feat when she has no idea who to trust.

Hello Sarah, I really enjoyed reading the series from A Court of thorn and roses to a court of silver flames. I’m curious to know if they’re other books from that which talk about Mor, Azriel, Elaine, Lucien, Gwyn, Eris, Emerie and even Tamlin.
I’d love to read about these characters also.
Thank you for keeping me busy with your words. Reading the books made me forget I’m out of this world.
Your feedback will be highly appreciated.
I agree with the above comment! I thought there would be more books because I felt like maybe Az and Gwyn would start a romance and maybe Mor and Emerie and was so looking forward to their stories and did wonder also for Eris and Tamlin but did not have as many thoughts for them.
Having read and loved all of the Thorns and Roses books I felt at a loss at the end because so many integral stories were left unfinished. Example – Elaine’s story. So much left untouched and unsaid. At best I hope this means more sequels, at worst I’m afraid we’ve all been left in the lurch.
I love the worlds you created throughout all of your books I’m about to start the assassins blade, I’m so excited! if you wanted to expand and give more on the other characters in Crescent city or Court of rose and thorns I wouldn’t be mad regardless they were phenomenal and can’t wait to read the next book in crescent city Series, the way breath and sky ended omg cliffhanger🫣🤯🤤🤩!!
