Meghan Chase used to be an ordinary girl...until she discovered that she is really a faery princess. After escaping from the clutches of the deadly Iron fey, Meghan must follow through on her promise to return to the equally dangerous Winter Court with her forbidden love, Prince Ash. But first, Meghan has one request: that they visit Puck--Meghan's best friend and servant of her father, King Oberon--who was gravely injured defending Meghan from the Iron Fey.


Yet Meghan and Ash's detour does not go unnoticed. They have caught the attention of an ancient, powerful hunter--a foe that even Ash may not be able to defeat.



BOOK REVIEW:

I purchased this Novella E-Book from Harlequin Teens site for a whole $2.69US. After downloading the Adobe Digital software needed to read it I was off and running with this nifty little 59 page read. I would suggest purchasing Winter's Passage and not skipping it to go straight to 'The Iron Daughter' as it does give you a great little story. In true Julie Kagawa style , adds another children's story book character to the mix. It is that little bridge that takes you from The Iron King to The Iron Daughter and you always need a bridge. You learn some new things and we get to see how 'Puck' is doing. Not  forgetting the bit of smexi tension between Prince Ash and Meghan.

I did have a little trouble with 'The Iron King' at first but you must look at these very creative books as possibly a 'Tim Burton' style of imagery in your mind when reading, especially his 'Alice In Wonderland',  when they are all travelling in the Faerie realms. When in the mortal world I then see it switching again in my mind .

I really enjoyed this albeit very short read and I must state what a complete waste of this beautiful cover for Winter's Passage when only in Ebook format. It would look lovely in paperback, but!!! an ebook it is:D


This fan made trailer was the winner in a Winter's Passage competition Julie Kagawa had on her site.
