Talk:A Court of Thorns and Roses

Article title change

Given that the title "A Court of Thrones and Roses" refers to both the entire book series as well as to the first book, I believe it would be best to add parentheses to emphasis the difference. SpiritedMichelle (talk) 03:44, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Except no article exists for the first book, so the series is allowed to reside at the non-disambiguated title. Same applies for Throne of Glass. -- /Alex/₂₁ 06:14, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Overview

The overview paragraph seems to describe just the first book, not the series as a whole. Phlar (talk) 17:12, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Ah, such helpful advice. Would you happen to have a reliable source that describes the whole series? I’ve only read half of the first book myself. Phlar (talk) 04:45, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Add Author Inspiration for These Novels

This series was inspired by certain folklore and greek mythology. If this was included in the article it would help a reader understand the certain plot developments that take place in this series. Such as the beauty and the beast re-telling for the first novel then into the persephone and hades inspiration for the second novel. I wouldn't classify them as spoilers because as I said they are used for inspiration, and for someone who may have not read the books would not know if they are direct copies beginning to end. Sarah J Maas has mentioned before that her books have classical inspirations, so for her next books it would be great to continue adding those. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marilougarcia (talk • contribs) 19:08, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

The series consists of one book. There's no need for an article for it until at least two, if not the entire trilogy, has been released. -- /Alex/₂₁ 00:20, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 7 March 2021

The most recent edits to the Characters section have unconfirmed claims about the characters' relationships to each other. The source that can be used as evidence for this is the new book in the series, A Court of Silver Flames. Specifically, the word "mate" is a very specific designation in the series, and the most recent edits use this word to inaccurately change the relationships described between: Lucien, Elain, Azriel, and Vassa. There is also a claim that two characters are lovers (Emerie and Mor) when this is not substantiated in canon as we currently have it from the author of the series.

Change requests include:

Please change "Elain Archeron: Nesta and Feyre's sister, Lucien's former mate, Azriel's mate. She was turned into fae against her will by the King of Hybern using the Cauldron and became a seer during her transformation." TO "Elain Archeron: Nesta and Feyre's sister, Lucien's mate, though the bond is not yet accepted nor rejected. She was turned into fae against her will by the King of Hybern using the Cauldron and became a seer during her transformation."

Please change "Azriel: Shadowsinger, Spymaster for the Night Court, Rhysand and Cassian's best friend and brother, Elain's mate. He is one of the most powerful Illyrians in history." TO "Azriel: Shadowsinger, Spymaster for the Night Court, Rhysand and Cassian's best friend and brother. He is one of the most powerful Illyrians in history."

Please change "Lucien Vanserra: Former emissary to the Spring and the Night Court, heir to the Day Court, Freya and Helion's son, Elain's former mate, Vassa's mate, Jurian's friend. He was injured and scarred by Amarantha due to which his left eye is mechanical." TO "Lucien Vanserra: Former emissary to the Spring and the Night Court, heir to the Day Court, Freya and Helion's son, Elain's mate, though the bond is not yet accepted nor rejected, Vassa and Jurian's friend. He was injured and scarred by Amarantha due to which his left eye is mechanical."

Please change "Vassa: One of the six mortal world queens, Lucien's mate. She was sold off by the other mortal queens to the death lord Koschei who enslaved her and cursed her to transform into a firebird during the day." TO "Vassa: One of the six mortal world queens, Jurian and Lucien's friend. She was sold off by the other mortal queens to the death lord Koschei who enslaved her and cursed her to transform into a firebird during the day."

Please change "Morrigan aka Mor: Third-in-command of the Night Court, Keir's daughter, Rhysand's cousin, Emerie's lover. One of the most powerful warriors, her power is truth." TO "Morrigan aka Mor: Third-in-command of the Night Court, Keir's daughter, Rhysand's cousin. One of the most powerful warriors, her power is truth."

Please change "Emerie: Illyrian warrior, Valkyrie, Nesta and Gwyn's best friend, Mor's lover. She was tortured by her family and her father injured and clipped her wings to bind her. She owns and runs her clothing shop in Illyria." TO "Emerie: Illyrian warrior, Valkyrie, Nesta and Gwyn's best friend. She was tortured by her family and her father injured and clipped her wings to bind her. She owns and runs her clothing shop in Illyria." Donnarosemary (talk) 18:18, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

 Partly done: I have removed the entire section. It needs summarising and ideally references to independent sources which give some information on the series, not just a reader's interpretation of WP:PRIMARY sources. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 18:36, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

Photos

The series at present covers five books but the photo attached to the article only shows the covers for the first four. I think it would be a good idea to add the new covers to include the fifth book as well.
