You may have heard of me...
Robin Goodfellow. Puck. Prankster, joker, raven, fool… King Oberon’s right-hand jester from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The legends are many, but the truth will now be known as never before, as Puck finally tells his own story and faces a threat to the lands of Faery and the human world unlike any before.
With the Iron Queen Meghan Chase and her prince consort, Puck’s longtime rival Ash, and allies old and new by his side, Puck begins a fantastical and dangerous adventure not to be missed or forgotten.
Up until this book, I would’ve told you that my love for Julie Kagawa knew no bounds… But, maybe it was the anticipation of this one–but, I feel incredibly let down.
If you read the original Iron Fey series, then you know why I was so excited to read this. And, Puck was even one of my favorites in that one! Unfortunately, for me, this one just fell a little flat and I didn’t fall in love.
All our favorites were still there–Megan, Ash (yay!), and Grimalkin. But, I just felt so unimpressed when this one was over.
I admit–I’m a glutton for punishment and will more-than-likely read the rest of the series. But, that’s really only because of the nostalgia-factor. And a need to make sure none of my favorite characters get ruined.
About Julie Kagawa
Julie Kagawa, the New York Times bestselling author of the Iron Fey, Blood of Eden, Talon, and Shadow of the Fox series was born in Sacramento, California. But nothing exciting really happened to her there.
Julie now lives in North Carolina with her husband, two obnoxious cats, and a pair of Australian Shepherds that have more Instagram followers than she does.
I never read the last Iron Fey book so I’m often thinking about buying the new covers rereading the series and then buying this book. It’s just too bad this wasn’t a better read for you. Maybe the next one will be better?
