This short story was brilliant! It was Puck and Julie Kagawa’s Iron Fey series at it’s very best. It incorporated everything that makes things series so brilliant—beauty, humour, adventure and captivated me from the very beginning! It was so nice getting a tiny glimpse into the crazy inner workings of Pucks mind. While I’m still an Ash girl all the way, there’s something I love so much about Puck. He’s naughty and mischievous and just outright fun. While I’ll never want Megan to be with anyone but Ash, I’m glad for Puck in this series and I love that he’s just a good, loyal friend to her.

Of course my only issue with this story was that it’s wasn’t long enough. Not that it could ever be....I always hate it when these books end because I want them to go on forever. This was a great little adventure and it’s whet my appetite for The Iron Knight so much more. I’m looking forward to the final book even more than I thought possible and cannot wait to see how Megan, Ash and Pucks story ends!

Diana~ This totally sounds so awesome! And there's finally a cover to boot. :)


Rachel (The Rest Is Still Unwritten) I know! This'll be enough to both whet my appetite for Iron Knight and sustain me until then!


Diana~ Aah, Iron Knight!! It'll be the last one I bet... which makes this rather sad. But we'll finally get an ending that Ash, Meghan, and even Puck deserves! I really hope that Julie Kagawa ends it with a bang~


Rachel (The Rest Is Still Unwritten) It does make it sad. It'll be a shame to see it end. I do plan to read Julie Kagawa's next series, but it won't be the same.
Yes! I certainly hope that the ending is fitting of the series. It deserves to have the best.

Bianca Hey Rach, would you be able to send me the ebook. For some reason my computer will just not download them! So frustrating. :)

Bianca Thanks so much! Love this series..:D


Rachel (The Rest Is Still Unwritten) No problem =) Me too! Iron Knight is gonna break my heart regardless if we get a happy ending, simply because it'll be the last book!

Bianca I know, haha go Ash, will be very interesting with Puck and Ash together. Entertainment is an almost certainty. :)


Rachel (The Rest Is Still Unwritten) Yep. Go Ash! I know! They're both such great characters and considering their past it'll be interesting to see how they handle each other, lol.

Nicole Hey, how does this book and Winter's Passage fit in with the Iron Few series? Do you read these with the series or are they just novellas that go along with the series?


message 13: by Rachel (The Rest Is Still Unwritten) (last edited May 10, 2011 02:47am) (new) - rated it 4 stars

Rachel (The Rest Is Still Unwritten) Okay. Winter's Passage is inbetween books 1 and 2 and this one is in between books 3 and 4. So basically 1. 5 and 3.5.
I actually haven't read Winters Passage yet, but I plan to get to it and read this one the moment it's released. I definatly suggest it.

Nicole Oh, I understand! I will read them in that order then. I've got only a few pages left in Witchlight from NW3 (I can't believe it's over!) and I'm so confused about which book to read next! I don't know if I should finish Tempted and catch up with HON or The Iron King or start VA or Unearthly! I think I'm going to read Unearthly and The Iron King... so many books so little time.

Have you read the Soul Screamers series by Rachel Vincent? I was wondering if it was any good. Have you read Nightshade by Andrea Cremer? I got that when it came out but haven't read it. I'm going to WallMart next weekend and will be bargain book buying! I'm going to get Blood Promises so when I'm done with the first three I'll have number four all ready!

Bianca I have read both of those you mentioned. :) I liked the soul screamer series. They were really good. Also Nightshade was awesome. You should read them. :)

It's disappointing, especially as Strange Fate isn't out until 2014 now. It sucks!
Lol. You've got a lot to read and catch up with. Read whatever you feel like---you have a great selection regardless of which you pick =)

I've read Soul Screamers. I have to read the latest though, but they were alright. Idk if I'd have they're my faves, bout you'd probably like that. They're worth reading I guess.
As for Nightshade, I'm kinda one of the few who wasn't bowled over with that book. I doubt I'll continue on with the series, but again, you may like it.....most people did.
