The series concludes with this volume. I don't know if the novel went on to explore more, but this is all that was ever illustrated as a manga. I found it to be a satisfying series, though I wish I could have found out who the mastermind was. I wasn't sure if he and Edgar's slaver (revealed in this volume) were the same man.
However, I was pleased nonetheless. I enjoyed being in this world for all four volumes. My favorite moment in this volume was when Lydia tried to trap the hobgoblin's soul i...more

Overall, I really liked this manga series, adapted from a novel series (I believe), though I wish that it had been a little bit longer.
The series wraps up nicely in this last volume, though the ending seemed a little bit too quick to me. The story was good overall, in all of the volumes, and I loved the setting of (mostly) London, and the mythology that was thrown into the story, along with the real-to-life elements like slavery. There were some hard issues dealt with in this series, but I enjo...more

I have read that this is the final volume of this series. It did not feel like a final volume to me...perhaps because I have not read the other three volumes. But, I find it sad if it is. That's because I really liked Lydia and Edgar, and I long to see more happen between them, especially in the romance department, and this ending means it won't.
I really liked the characters in this volume. I felt a connection with Lydia almost instantly, and it grew deeper as the volume went along. I also fel...more

The back of this volume says it's the last, and it looks like the anime it's based on only lasted one season... and I'm sad to see it go.
While not without its flaws (i.e. a sort of typical romance with the shy, awkward girl with the ugly duckling complex, and the dark, possibly dangerous, bad boy whose heart she changes) - it was a quick, fun and frothy sort of read complete with derring-do, danger and faeries, set in 1800s London.
Ah, yes... the perfect sort of brain candy.

The anime was really good, but it was too short and it's really different from the manga. The manga was also short. We didn't even get a chance to see Prince and Kelpie. Whenever Edgar and Kelpie meets, it always makes me laugh when they fight. When I finished watching the anime, I thought the manga would have more to add on, but it didn't. It only talked about part of his past(the third and fourth volume anyway), and though that was interesting to read and we get learn more about Edgar, I was h...more
-sniffles- The proclaimed last volume to the series. I don't see how it could go so much further and give us a definite ending for our two main characters. I would very much had appreciated that. Wonderful book. Our heroine goes missing. The man we have seen lie the entire series, cocky and self-center. He unleashes hell in his mission to locate her....But all that aside towards the end. I think you see a softness come out, just for her that you wouldn't see with anyone else. That he couldn't sh...more
4.0 Sterne
Das Ende war wirklich sehr nett, Edgar wirkte jetzt wirklich so, als ob ihm etwas an Lydia liegen würde. Allerdings fehlte es mir am Ende doch etwas an romantischen Szenen, da hätte ich es mir doch etwas kitschiger gewünscht. Aber genau deshalb wird die Reihe bestimmt anderen sehr gut gefallen, weil sie romantische Züge aufweist, aber überhaupt nicht kitschig ist. Insgesamt ist die Reihe wirklich sehr schön, ihr fehlt es allerdings an Spannung, weil die Reihe einfach zu kurz ist. Ich f...more

~3.5/5
[Also available on my blog.]
This was a pretty nice ending to the series. It got a bit (only a bit, not overly so) intense there for a while.
So, the last book ended with Lydia being locked up in some abandoned warehouse, and… Um, she finds that she’s not the only one there, and then Nico shows up, and then Edgar and Raven show up. They find out something much darker is going on, and Edgar has a big confrontation with Rosalie (which was great), and… some other stuff happens until the case is...more

This book felt rushed, though maybe that's because things finished in a timely manner unlike other manga series.
It's very rarely that I say this about manga, but I actually wish that The Earl and the Fairy could have gone on just a little longer. The story was made up of two parts, the "Earl" part where Edmund strives to become the earl, and the "Fairy" part where the group try to solve the mystery of the "fogman" (an evil fairy). Two parts is really short, and I would have liked maybe a third p...more

I really wish this series was longer! I hope Lydia and Edgar's relationship grows
I cannot believe this is the last book in the series! This was a great series too. I am disapointed. Oh well, it was still great.

I just love that the Earl is a very bad man! I'll be sorry when she "tames" him....
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Why is it over?!
Final volume
♥
I wasn't expecting this to be the last volume. I think too much happened too quickly.

The only thing that sucks about this series is that it ends here, with only the first two light novels finished in manga form. While there are places that offer translated versions of the light novels, and fan subs of the anime, this manga is the only legal version we NAs can consume/support.
Sadness.
Maybe someday it'll make it to our shores.
5/5

Awh, I'm a little sad that that was the last volume... The art was beautifully drawn, and the storyline was fascinating. I really liked the idea.
Might have to go find the light novels in English...
