A Court of Thorns and Roses Books in Order

by Sarah J. Maas

A Court of Thorns and Roses follows nineteen-year-old Feyre Archeron, a human huntress struggling to feed her impoverished family. When she kills a wolf in the woods, she discovers it was actually a faerie in disguise, and as punishment, she's dragged across the magical wall separating the human and fae realms to the Spring Court.

There, she becomes the reluctant guest of Tamlin, a powerful High Fae lord cursed to wear a beast-like mask. As Feyre adapts to life among the immortal fae, she begins to understand the deadly curse threatening Tamlin's court and finds herself falling for her captor despite the danger surrounding them.

What begins as a Beauty and the Beast retelling transforms into something much darker and more complex. When a malevolent force threatens to destroy both the fae and human worlds, Feyre must embrace powers she never knew she possessed and make an impossible choice that will determine the fate of everyone she's come to love.

The first book launches an epic fantasy romance series that explores themes of trauma, healing, and the true meaning of strength, setting the stage for Feyre's journey from a desperate human girl to one of the most powerful beings in the fae realm.
