Throne of Glass Reading Guide
ROMANTIC ORDER
Throne of Glass
Crown of Midnight
Heir of Fire
The Assassins Blade
Queen of Shadows
Tower of Dawn
Empire of Storms
Kingdom of ash
The romantic reading order places The Assassins Blade at the point where it will make the most emotional impact for you. It also positions tower of Dawn to allow the best transition from Empire of Storms to Kingdom of Ash
PURIST ORDER
The Assassins Blade
Throne of Glass
Crown of Midnight
Heir of Fire
Queen of Shadows
Empire of Storms
Tower of Dawn
Kingdom of Ash
The purist reading order keeps the entire series in publication order. The Assassins Blade is a prequel, and thus belongs at the beginning. Tower of Dawn was written after Empire of Storms though they take place at the same time.
EMPIRE OF STORMS AND TOWER OF DAWN TANDEM READ:
An alternative option to reading either Empire of Storms or Tower of Dawn first, is to simply read them together. They are their own stories in two different locations with no overlap, but they take place at the same time. The following checklist provides you with a way to read them in alternating, chronological order.

I want to clarify I am not the original creator of this awesome list, I just could NOT find a list that wasnt a really bad copy of the original post. I looked everywhere I figured id loose less time if I just type it out on my own.. I tried to print the page I found and it was just way too light so I wanted to create a blog format for people to access!
The original creator - I think, as this is the name on the photo - Is T.L. Branson - So I just want to say “Thank you” for creating this awesome sheet to use while we do the tandem read.
I hope this helps you as much as it helped me!!!
I made a LINK for you to just go directly to Canva and download the pages for yourself! That way you dont have to do any work at all!!
