Week 7 Reviews: The Iron Queen, Summer's Crossing, Ash's Letter to Meghan, The Iron Knight, An Iron Fey Valentine, Iron's Prophecy, The Iron Legends

From Goodreads:

My name is Meghan Chase. I thought it was over. That my time with the fey, the impossible choices I had to make, the sacrifices of those I loved, was behind me. But a storm is approaching, an army of Iron fey that will drag me back, kicking and screaming. Drag me away from the banished prince who's sworn to stand by my side. Drag me into the core of conflict so powerful, I'm not sure anyone can survive it.

This time, there will be no turning back.

From Goodreads:
A Midsummer's Nightmare? Robin Goodfellow. Puck. Summer Court prankster, King Oberon's right hand, bane of many a faery queen's existence—and secret friend to Prince Ash of the Winter Court. Until one girl's death came between them, and another girl stole both their hearts.

Now Ash has granted one favor too many and someone's come to collect, forcing the prince to a place he cannot go without Puck's help—into the heart of the Summer Court. And Puck faces the ultimate choice—betray Ash and possibly win the girl they both love, or help his former friend turned bitter enemy pull off a deception that no true faery prankster could possibly resist.

From Goodreads:

Get set to swoon: read Ash's heart-rending final letter to Meghan.

My first review of The Iron Queen, Summer's Crossing, The Iron Knight, Iron's Prophecy

My Review:
Oh, it was fantastic to reread this series! I just love the concept of the Iron Fey so much, and the end of Meghan's time as staring in the original series-and the stories that surround that-are just so fantastic! Julie Kagawa has created this fantastic world, and I'm so glad that there's 2 more series to spend this time in it!

Meghan has been through a lot, and after Iron Daughter, she's been banished from the Nevernever, just like Ash, so they're on their own in the human realm. I really enjoyed the time that they spent together, of their training, and of him becoming her knight. It was downtime before they joined the war.

I knew who the false Iron King was, but yeah, it was just so satisfying to watch him be defeated! On the other hand, watching Ash go on his quest for a soul and a mortal body, that was a bit hard to read-especially knowing how much a threat the forgotten fey are going to be in the next series!

And then there was Iron's Prophecy which also is going to play a big part in the next series, because it's about their son, and it is guaranteed that he's going to cause them grief. Which they don't deserve, but they're going to get, because they love him, because he's their son!

Loved reading these books again so much, and I can't wait to reread the Call of the Forgotten series next!
