Pre-reading: My reaction to the cover was something like:



Post-reading: Actual rating is 4.5 stars. >_< I know. I seriously thought I was going to give this 5, but I can't really deny I was a tiny bit disappointed about some things.

Also, those of you who have not yet read the Iron Fey series, I suggest you abort this review because there will be massive spoilers for that series.

Once upon a time, there was a boy and a book series. The book series was so close to the boy's heart that when he...more

YES! This is perfecto! I am as excited as this dog right now. See, I don't want Kagawa to drag things out between Meghan and Ash, I just want them to be happy and that be the end of it. But little Ethan all grown up? Hell yes! I love male POVs!

“I can’t stop it. I can’t stop Them from following me. If it was just me that the fey picked on, I’d be okay with that. But someone else always pays for my Sight. Someone else always gets hurt instead of me.” Tearing my gaze from hers, I looked out over the fields. “I’d rather be alone,” I muttered, “then to have to watch that again.”

Do you remember the little boy who was kidnapped by a vicious fey, and his big sister set out a journey to find that kind to a strange and magical place called Neve...more

I have just finished reading Ash and Meghan's story and fell deeply in love with these characters, all of them! The Iron Knight had me in tears, especially the last paragraph, I don't know if it was because it was goodbye, knowing I won't be captured anymore by these characters and their quests, but it left me with a hole in my heart, a void that needs to be filled, but when I saw she was coming out with a spin off my heart beat a million times faster! can not wait for this series to come out!

ARC supplied by NetGalley and Harlequin Teen in exchange for an honest review.

A strong 3.5

THE LOST PRINCE.

What can I say about this book? When I was approved for the ARC, I nearly passed out. I kid you not; I chucked my iTouch across the room where it hit the wall and fell on Kipper, who was luckily so focused on my excitement he completely ignored it.

I grabbed my Nook, plugged it into my laptop, and had a teenage angst attack for about fifteen minutes when I couldn't remember how to drag the fi...more

You can see this review on my blog here. c:

First off, spoilers ahead! If you haven't read The Iron Fey series, I suggest you just step away from the review. ._.

The Lost Prince is about Meghan Chase's little brother--whom we all know him from TIF series as the one who got kidnapped and brought to the Nevernever in The Iron King--and he's changed. A. Lot. Then when his half-breed Phouka friend goes missing, and sightings of mysterious creepy Fey suddenly spring up, Ethan has to get involved in som...more

Actual rating: 4.5 stars.

Show of hands. How many of you were worried about Kagawa returning to the Nevernever with a spin-off of an already successful series? *raises hand* I mean, let's think about this for a minute. The Iron Knight concluded and it seemed everything was "happy happy, joy joy," right? But then there were whisperings in the wind of a spin-off and I found myself saying, "What?! NOOO! NO, Julie! I forbid it! Ya hear?!" At the time the saying "Don't beat a dead horse" was running...more

This review contains spoilers for the Iron Fey series. You've been warned.

It's no secret that I absolutely love Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey, and it remains as one of my favorite YA series of all time. However, despite my love for the Iron Fey series, I went into The Lost Prince with slight trepidation for two reasons: reason one being that spin-offs rarely work out well for me, and, at its worst, only end up tarnishing my views of the original series, and reason two being that it's gotten reviews f...more

Pre-read review:

ETHAN?!! THAT is ETHAN?!!
Photobucket Photobucket

Wow...*blinks* I guess for some people puberty, umm, brings out the Ash in them! Ethan is quite the specimen of male supremacy there, so I'm pleasantly surprised!

This book is probably going to be brilliant - since it's Julie's :D. I'm looking forward to a little more Puck (and his humour) and maybe even a glimpse or two of Ash *coughs guiltily*. Ok, ok - I get the series is now about Ethan. But a girl can dream, right?!!

FINAL RATING: ★★★★☆/★★★★★



First things first. THIS BOOK WAS THE BEST IRON FEY BOOK EVER (well, depends xD it rivals with the Iron Queen)!!!!! Why is that? Because I couldn’t stop reading, I loved all of the characters, the story and most of all – there was no love triangle – VICTORY!!!



And look at this beautiful cover ♥



I have one thing to say to the future readers: if you have read Iron’s prophecy then you have probably spoiled yourself in a way for this book. If not, I suggest you read it after...more

I had to give it 3 stars due to the characters. I loved the plot and the NeverNever. I enjoyed seeing Puck and Ash even though I never read the Iron Fey series. Also, enjoyed Grim, awesome cat to have. As for Meghan. Didn't like her. Though, I've read other reviews and it told that wasn't how Meghan is in The Iron Fey.

Ethan: I just had a love/hate relationship with him. I still enjoyed his POV.

Kenzie: Didn't like her for squat. She's annoying, nosy & just useless....more

(My thoughts as the book was coming out are below.)
(I will hopefully be writing a real review at some point.)

I was actually pretty disappointed. I'm sure it was more enjoyable for new readers but, as an avid fan, a lot was predictable. No, correction: Not even as an avid fan. Just by reading The Iron Knight, I was able to guess at a bunch of the spoilers early on.
Also, Ethan was a bit too broody for me. And some of the other characters were a bit annoying, like Todd, or flat, like Kenzie. There...more

Really..?! Julie Kagawa..?! OMG..!

Hahaha, now it's Ethan's turn.. *so excited
Can't hardly wait..No that's wrong..I can't wait any longer..8 months of torture waiting..WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! Hope to see Ash, Megan and Puck. PUCK..! I hope in this book together with Ethan he will find a girl that will love him unconditionally and he also loves her *praying for it to happen.

But then again this is perfect, I really really want to read more stories with a guy's POV. And Ethan all grown up..this is reall...more

Look, last time I knew Ethan he was a five years old. Please tell me I'm not the only one conflicted about the boy on the cover! I almost didn't want to read this book because I kept expecting Chris Hansen to come in and tell me to take a seat.

Then I'd be like, "I swear! He's sixteen! I just READ about him when he was five! He's totally of age now!"

Then I'd cry dramatically JUST like this.

But, facts are facts, folks. Ethan's aged like a fine brandy if brandy had washboard abs and a butt built fo...more

This book was SO much better than the Iron Fey series, but I just have to knock it down a star for the anticlimactic end. For those who are wondering about my opinion of the Iron Fey series, I really liked the first one. I liked books 2 and 3 enough, and I really didn't care too much for the last one. I think this book may have surpassed my opinion of The Iron King - sans the disappointingly small role my beloved Puck played in this one.

Again, I have to give Kagawa props for going outside th...more

Ohkay thats it! I feel like an old grandma here. I am saving Ethan and Prince Keirran for my children to fan-girl over about now.
Since I have already given my heart and soul to Ash and Puck.

And did I mention that they both have their own girlfriends to actually care about us dying to be their imaginary girlfriend? Nope. They didn't even think about that. How...more

Does anybody else feel a little weird/perverted to have the hots for Ethan? I remember reading The Iron King and imagining a little cute boy, and now he is the boy in the cover, and he is hot, but I still can remember that little boy... confusing, a little bit perverted, but oh so good. He has grown up into a fine frame of a man.

This review may contain mild spoilers for the Iron Fey series

Julie Kagawa must be part fey. What other explanation is there for her seamless record of entertaining books? I have yet to read anything poor or mediocre from her and I doubt I ever will. The Lost Prince is the latest addition to the Julie Kagawa shelf and a very impressive one at that.

Remember little Ethan? Remember Meghan Chase’s younger brother who was taken into the Nevernever? Fast forward thirteen years and the all traces of th...more

When the release of The Lost Prince was announced, I didn’t quite know what to think about it. In ninety percent of the cases, a spin-off isn’t the best idea an author can have and it ends up disappointing the fans. While I wasn’t the biggest fan of The Iron Fey in the world, I still enjoyed the series and I didn’t want it ruined in some sad attempt to milk the cash cow. Now, after reading the first book, I’m very excited that Ethan’s (and I suppose Keirran’s) story is being told.

As usual, what...more

Let me start by saying I fell off the bandwagon after The Iron Knight. I really liked the first three books of what was then the Iron Fey trilogy, but angsty Ash and a plot that's filler at best was a huge turnoff for me. But The Lost Prince, wow, I am absolutely, one hundred percent, no regrets back on. This is the sequel to the original trilogy I was expecting, incredibly awesome.

First off, don't trust the preview chapter in Immortal Rules, the first chapter's been rewritten, and it's way bett...more

MY REACTION AFTER READING THE BOOK







Yep! I have fallen crazy in love with this book. I mean I already know Julie Kagawa has a wicked imagination and writing skills but this book exceeded my expectations. Although the The Iron Fey: Call of the Forgotten share the same world as the Iron Fey series this has an entirely new flavor and excitement to it.

Want to know why?

Read on!

First up, I just wanna get something out of the way. On page 62, Ethan and Todd have a discussion about the Awesome that is Joss Whedon, namely his project Firefly which I fucking love.



Excuse me a moment while I fangirl.









Anyway.

Just so you know - and I will explain this later - the four star rating and the review I'm about to write are not reflective of each other. Like I said, I'll explain later.

I feel like I'd have enjoyed this more if it was in third person. Or at least switching first person,...more

2.5 Stars

The Lost Prince was an entertaining adventure, a story that any fan of Kagawa’s Fey series will enjoy.

When we last left off, Ethan Chase was the toddler/younger brother of Meghan Chase, one who also had “The Sight,” in other words, he could see faeries. He has nothing but contempt for the Fey. In his mind they took his sister and have made his everyday life a nightmare. Now at sixteen, Ethan tries to stay out of trouble but with the Fey in his life, this is impossible. He keeps every on...more

“My name is Keirran,” he continued in a solemn voice. “And I was hoping we could talk.”

Edit 27/10:
I just finnished the book and I didn't know if to give it 4 or 5 stars, but I thought the hell with everything I'll give it 5 just because I loved too much grown Ethan.
Well, I don't know what to say... Besides KEIRRAN DON'T BE A FUCKING IDIOT! I like you too much to you become evil goddammit.
And you guys know the best part about the whole fucking book? There is a NO GODDAMN LOVE TRIANGLE! It's a fr...more

More like 3.5, actually.

I don't like Ethan. He's such a whiny, whiny kid. I grew tired listening to him rant and complain and push people away all the time. If not for Grim and the rest of the cast, I would have rated this book 2 or 2.5. I do like the story, all those Forgotten and the story behind, but Ethan's constant whining didn't really impress me. For me he's still that little kid Meghan rescued in the Nevernever. Oh, and did I mention there is too much teenage angst at the beginning? That...more

My review can also be found on Reading Lark: http://readinglark.blogspot.ca/2012/0...

Julie Kagawa's magical brilliance strikes again! If there was any doubt that her spin-off series from The Iron Fey was going to be a hit...you would be worrying for nothing! Julie continues to pump out purely GOLDEN stories full of great imagery and adventures with richly-written characters and fantastical backdrops that literally lift off the pages and play out right in front of your eyes. I fall into her stori...more

"This is the Iron Realm," I told her. "It's still Faery, just a different flavor of crazy."

Ethan Chase isn't new when it comes to the whole faery existence. His sister is the Iron Queen after all and he's been able to see them since he was a child which has been nothing but trouble.
Making sure to use every trick in the book so not to attract their attention and play the part of a rebellious troublemaker to ensure that people don't get to close to him, Ethan is so sick of this tiresome scene. Cl...more

Review also posted at Ja čitam, a ti?

It's not a secret that I love Iron Fey series. Well there is no way that I wouldn't love something made to look like fairy tale with teens in it. It's simply the kid in me (and trust me that's really big part of me) who loves all parts of Nevernever. I don't have to tell you how happy I was when Julie decided to write a spin-off!

Then it was on NetGalley and Herlequin being awesome, as they are, approved me. You can only imagine how thrilled I was. But before...more
