A Court of Thorns and Roses Books in Order
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.
Sarah J. Maas published the first book in 2015, and the series has since grown to include multiple sequels and companion novels. The later books shift focus to different characters and courts within the fae realm, with increasingly explicit romantic content that moved the series from YA to adult fantasy romance. The books have sold millions of copies and developed a devoted fanbase.
