Bookreview: The Iron Fey series part 4 - The Iron Knight

Hi!
How are you? Have you been enjoying your summer? Last week, the weather was so bad, it felt like it was winter again. It was raining, it was dark all day... I decided that day to stay inside and read a little in bed.
That day, I finished the last book of "The Iron Fey" series by Julie Kagawa.


I told you in my last review that Meghan and Prince Ash were seperated for some reason. In this last book, we don't follow Meghan like we did in the other three books, we follow Ash this time.
Ash can't let Meghan get away and decides the only way to get back to hear is to become a human. To become human and to get a soul, you need to do some challenges. But will Ash decide he wants to get a soul when he realizes he will grow older and die alone, even though Meghan will live forever now?

 

I enjoyed this book a lot! First of all it was interesting to see what was going on inside of Ash' head because in the other books I felt like he was wearing a mask and shutting everyone out all the time. I also thought some of the challenges were mysterious and they were put together really well, I don't know if I would be able to solve what they have asked Ash to solve.
Aside from that, a lot of things happen to his friends and enemies. I especially love that in the end, not everyone is allright, but everything is allright.
I'm sorry, I can't spoil anything and I must sound crazy but those of you who are reading the series (or who have read the series) will understand.

 

Yeah, I liked this series. I'm kind of sad it's over because now I don't have any Ash, Meghan and Puck stories to look forward to....
But yes, it was nice, I liked the series a lot and I'll check out more of Julie Kagawa's books!

Bookreview: The Iron Fey series part 3 - The Iron Queen

Hello everyone!
I'm back with a bookreview on the third book of the "Iron Fey" series by Julie Kagawa. I actually read this book a while ago but I just never wrote about it.

 

In this book, the Iron Fey are still taking over, there's a new king who is trying to kill all other Fey, and he has advantages because they other Fey die when they touch Iron.
It's now Meghan's job to go and defeat the king. She's the only one who isn't infected by the Iron.
But there is one problem.. Meghan is half human and half Fae, which means she has the powers of regular Fae, but when she killed the last Iron King, she got his powers as well.
Since Iron magic and normal Fae magic don't go together, she can't use her powers. If she does, she faints.

After a couple of long battles, she finds a way to stop the Iron Fey from killing all the other Fey. There's just one problem: because of the choices she makes and the things she does, she loses contact with Ash (her lover) and Puck (her best friend).
What now? Is there really a life without Ash and Puck? What will Meghan do next?

I loved the book! I was struggling a little bit to read about all the fighting because in my opinion there had been enough fights but it was written really well.
I was very surprised by the ending of this book! It is something that I didn't even think was possible, but it happened anyway! (If you want to read what's on the back of the book, I posted it here for you! Just click to enlarge ;) )

 

I am now reading the fourth book and so far, I can tell you there's more I didn't see coming in the fourth book.
I kind of don't want it to end. I have 20 pages left to read but I'm trying not to read them because, what will I do when this series is over?!

I hope you enjoyed this bookreview.
Are there any books you'd like to recommend? Let me know in the comments!

Bookreview: Iron Fey series part 2: The Iron Daughter

Hello everyone!
Today I'm going to review "The Iron Daughter", which is the second book in The Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa. I just finished it and my feelings are all over the place.
I loved the first book so much but I've been struggling to finish the second book due to a lot of work for school.

Finally, I finished the book today. Let's just say this book is even more heartbreaking than the first book. I on't see what could possibly happen in the third book at this point, because the end right now was so dramatic, but I'm sure it'll be a pleasure to read.


In this book, Meghan Chase returns to Queen Mab, as a prisoner (because she had a contract with prince Ash). During her stay, the Scepter (which is the source of extreme power - whoever has it becomes more powerful) is being transferred from King Oberon's empire to Queen Mab's empire (they each get it for half a year, that's the deal), but just after the ceremony, it already gets stolen.
Mab thinks Oberon did it and declares the War, but there's much more going on.

Meghan Chase, daughter of Oberon, knows all about it. She was in the room with the Scepter when it got stolen an now wants to find it back.
The only problem is that it's the Iron Fey who stole it. And they just happen to be Meghan's worst enemy!

I never saw this ending coming. It took my breath away and it broke my heart.
Time for more! Haha!

Thanks for reading!
