This book had a different but similar style to all the other Fey books. Not all of the Fey were nice and cuddly, some where monster of your worst nightmares. This was both good and bad, as it is the same in all Faery books, but it made it a whole more exciting. It was also the same as 'they live among us' thing is in every Fey book. That needed to change, but luckily she made up a different world, which balanced it out a bit more.
I had problems with the names of things. I think that Julie Kagawa could of taken the time to come up with a creative name for the Nevernever. That was a bit of a cheesy name, so I think she should get rid of the Peter Pan thing and change it to something creative. Also the name of the Ironhorse. It was a Ironhorse, but it could of been called something else.
The problem of being introduced to the world of Fey was addressed correctly as Meghan freaked out and thought that Robbie had lost it. She did not just accept it casually, but had a whole little freak out. That was good, as in other books, there is no reactions.
I think that the romance was not done properly. They had no reason to be together other than pure lust. She should of pushed Ash away more, not just hug him when she felt like it. It should of been MORE of a love-hate relationship. It did not cut it for me. And also that Ash is old, way old, not cool.
This book had a interesting concept, and my friend told me that it gets better in the next books, so I bought the Iron Daughter. I did enjoy this book, but I feel that there were a few minor issues. I recommend this book to girls between the ages of 12-16, as the faery thing gets old as you get older, and I do not think boys enjoy faeries.
