The seductive and stunning #1 New York Times bestselling sequel to Sarah J. Maas’s spellbinding A Court of Thorns and Roses.Feyre has undergone more trials than one human woman can carry in her heart. Though she’s now been granted the powers and lifespan of the High Fae, she is haunted by her time Under the Mountain and the terrible deeds she performed to save the lives of Tamlin and his people. … lives of Tamlin and his people.
As her marriage to Tamlin approaches, Feyre’s hollowness and nightmares consume her. She finds herself split into two different people: one who upholds her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court, and one who lives out her life in the Spring Court with Tamlin. While Feyre navigates a dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms. She might just be the key to stopping it, but only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future-and the future of a world in turmoil.
Bestselling author Sarah J. Maas’s masterful storytelling brings this second book in her dazzling, sexy, action-packed series to new heights.

This series is one of my favorites. The characters are well developed. The writing is phenomenal. The plot is wonderful. Once I started, I couldn’t stop till the end.
This is a wonderful second book in A Court of Thorns and Roses series.
Sarah J Maas really knows how to weave a wonderful story. With fast action packed scenes, and some excellent characters.
My favorite would have to be Rhysand
LOVED!!!!!! I don’t have many words to describe how amazing this book was. Hands down one of my favorite books. My face is still read from the steamy moments between Feyre and Rhys. Whew!
Oh My God
The first book in A Court of Thorns and Roses series was slow moving and not the best. Normally sequels aren’t as good as the first book and I was scared that A Court of Mist and fury would be similar. How wrong I was. A Court of Mist and Fury is so much better than [book:A Court of Thorns and Roses|16096824]! The characters were so much better developed and much more connectable. The story took off from close to the beginning and lasted through the book. You learned so much more about all the High Courts and when She finds out Rhys is her mate I was so shocked. It was a real plot twist when he named her High Lady of the Night Court. It was such a contrast to Tamlin.. I did have some problems with the character developed because I felt that the high priests was underdeveloped. Overall I loved this book and found it thrilling and super magical. I also like how they explore how broken she is and how Tamlin is an overprotective male who acted as if Freyer was his personal property and how poisonous that situation is for Freyer. This is definitely an awesome read and I truly recommend it to everyone who likes Magic and High Fae. And who doesn’t?
Loved this series!!!!
This is such a beautiful story, if you can make it pass Chapters 54 & 55 you will forever be a Maasian.
This series has become my favorite of all time. I never thought that would happen after reading Harry Potter. But it did. I’ve read it multiple times, and I don’t re read books. Ever. Only this series. Especially this book. Mist and Fury is my favorite.
I love this whole series (and anything else Sarah J. Maas writes), but this is by far my favorite book of hers.
I don’t think I’ve ever hated and loved a book so much at the same time. I have never dreaded reading a book til the end as much either. I’m angry at the author, but at the same time I’m awed at her story, her writing. This book was amazing, awful, heart ripplingly beautiful and a middle finger directed to any reader who is team Tamlin. To me personally, it was a great story wrapped in an insult. Very confusing.
Sarah J. Maas might as well have used the first book as toilet paper. That’s how poorly I felt this book followed A Court Of Thorns And Roses. That great love we see – we feel – between Tamlin and Feyre suddenly is poisonous to her and everything is wrong, and Tamlin treats her badly. There was no transaction to that what’s so ever. It goes from “Tamlin is the love of my life” to “everything is shit and I resent what he has become, what he is doing”. There even is a major personality change from nowhere when it comes to Tamlin. I could see no trait, no recognition from the first book in him. Sure, people change. Especially after a traumatic event. But no way do they change that fast or that much. There were no development that lead there at all, which was just straight up unrealistic.
This book was a huge slap in the face for me. From the first book I voted for Tamlin and Fayre’s love. It was a great relationship and an amazing story. There were things that could be better of course and they did not always get along, but I loved their relationship. I resent that Maas could turn it so ugly (both their relationship and their personalities) so unrealistically fast, just so Feyre would fall in love with Rhys instead. It might not have felt so sudden, so wrong, if the author had hinted at it better in the first book. Maybe making it a love triangle or shown some of the stranger dark anti-Tamlin from this book in the first book. Made us readers understand from the beginning that the relationship was not working out, instead of pulling a blanket over our eyes and then suddenly ripping the blanket to shreds with the second book.
Despite me not seeing eye to eye of how Maas executed the romance part of the story, I really enjoyed the writing, the story developing. It was beautiful and dramatic and heartwarming. I really did not want to, but I warmed up to the idea of Feyre and Rhys together as I read along and in the end I actually loved them together. I don’t know if it has to do with me putting the book down for a year and a half until I calmed down and kept reading, but have to unwillingly praise Maas for that. Because that shows an expert author. Not everyone can make a person love something they originally hated. Well done!
If this book had been the first book in the series, if the actual first book did not exist, I would have given this five stars (even more if possible). The first book kind of ruins it for me, vice versa this book ruins the first book. To vote for Tamlin only to out of nowhere be directed to vote for Rhys instead is a huge mood killer. Sure, I got around and now I love Rhys and Feyre. However, I would not be surprised if in the next book Feyre switch her love to Lucien, Cassian or even the king of Hybern. Seems like Maas’s style after all.
Hands down, this book is one of the most satisfying books I’ve read in terms of character development. I loved seeing the main characters learn and grow from their experiences. Seeing the heroine of the story take charge, instead of letting the males in her life dictate what she do, was immensely satisfying. YA is not my normal genre, but this series is going on my favorites list. I read the book in one sitting and immediately downloaded book three.
Here’s my problem: I love Anne Bishop, especially the Black Jewels books. And I read that Sarah Maas also likes Anne Bishop. I also like this trilogy a lot, but I’m torn because of the obvious parallels to the Black Jewels. (If nothing else, the use of the affectionate epithet ‘prick’ gives it away, but there’s a lot more.) So, I’m going to regard this series as a homage to Anne Bishop’s books though I’d advise people to read them (also).
So, in this second book of A Court of Thorns and Roses series, things are not well with Feyre. She’s back at the Spring Court with Tamlin, but he treats her as a prisoner, maybe because he doesn’t want to lose her, but regardless, she’s his captive. Rhysand holds her to their bargain, and she must visit him at the Night Court one week a month. He helps Feyre mend her fractured soul and start to meld the powers she’s gained.
Ms. Maas is an excellent writer, and this series is high fantasy at its best. The complicated politics and people in her world are drawn with exquisite finesse and detail. She weaves all these different strands together in a glittering tapestry of a story. The cliffhanger in this book has me opening the next book – at once!
Love. Love. Love.
Oh boy. Where to begin? I love this series, and I love Rhysand. He hits all the soft spots I have for a brooding, supposedly bad-guy hero. I like our heroine, and appreciate she doesn’t stay ignorant or doubtful too stubbornly. I like staying in this world and I love the romance here, even though there’s so much else to laud. In the end, it’s the love story that will bring me back to reread this series.
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
This series has put Sarah J Maas into my all time favorite authors. Her writing went from ok to untouchablly great. I am excited to read again. Beware of the book hangover you will have.
My absolute favorite out of this series. While they might be marketed as Young Adult, they really are not, and I highly recommend this series! <3 Rhysand
This is a book that I’ve been wanting to read for a while but couldn’t get myself to do it, because I resisted to the idea of Feyre giving it all for the love of her life in ACOTAR to end up changing completely in the next book. Now that I finally read ACOMAF I realized that I made a terrible mistake judging this book before actually reading it, because it’s actually a hundred times better than ACOTAR, amazingly written with a strong and powerful Feyre that gets to finally find a good family and a place for herself in the world for once, in a very beautiful court, there is adventure, romance, action; fantasy at it’s best, I can’t wait for the next book.
best book of the series
As an avid reader, this is one that I can (and do) keep coming back to because it is just that fantastic. Amazing characters and Maas makes me feel apart of Prythian with every turn of the page.
I absolutely loved this book and the rest of the series. Anything Sarah J Maas writes is guaranteed to be brilliant.
