*SPOILERS FOR [b:Faefever|2702704|Faefever (Fever, #3)|Karen Marie Moning|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1320544757s/2702704.jpg|2728068] *
After I've had time to breathe, and the first 40 pages of the next book, I can now digest the overwhelming angst the cliffhanger left me with enough to write a review.
After the (rather startling) ending of [b:Faefever|2702704|Faefever (Fever, #3)|Karen Marie Moning|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1320544757s/2702704.jpg|2728068], MacKayla Lane has been forever changed. She has become Pri-ya after being gang-raped by the three Unseelie Princes, under orders from the Lord Master, Darroc. However, after a brief intermission from the point of view of Dani, a sidhe-seer that lives at the abbey with Rowenna, Mac is rescued by said teenager, and is later taken away by Jericho Barrons *99.9% of Fever fans swoon* where he then has her undergo his unique form of therapy. Mac then prevails against the odds, and comes out a completely changed (and rather pissed off) person.
The first 50 pages (or the entirety of Part I for that matter) are completely different from the other books. The prologue is driven by sheer, desperate lust, and then the first two chapters are Dani's voice, which is vastly different from Mac's. Just by bringing that up, THANK YOU [a:Karen Marie Moning|48206|Karen Marie Moning|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1235014339p2/48206.jpg] for being able to write a (partially) dual-perspective narrative, that sounds like two different people! That alone has me excited for [b:Iced: A Dani O'Malley Novel|12444166|Iced A Dani O'Malley Novel (Fever World, #1)|Karen Marie Moning|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1333022535s/12444166.jpg|17427104], by being able to open up that book knowing it'll be a unique experience separate from this series in terms of voice.
Mac has undergone immense development (which continued into [b:Shadowfever|7304203|Shadowfever (Fever, #5)|Karen Marie Moning|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1320474645s/7304203.jpg|6967072]), and is now a cold, hardened warrior. She's more determined than ever to avenge her sister, Alina's murder, and protect those she loves. Of course, I love the family dedication, and I love the relationship she has with Dani, and the . . . fling she had going on with Barrons.
Still feel okay with Barrons. I can imagine the first 50 pages being some people's favorite scenes ever, and were probably very jealous of Mac, but I'm still frustrated because I want to know more about his past. We do get some glimpses, so don't fret if you are reading the series for the first time like me! Still, I do hope the remaining 550 pages of the final book are dedicated to answering some serious questions.
Like the other three books, this one is incredibly addictive, and I finished it in a matter of hours. The plot is fast-paced, interesting, and complex, the Fae mythology continues to expand and deepen, the atmosphere is fantastic, the setting is great (hence why it is now in my post-apocalyptic shelf - I do love me some paranormal apocalypses) and this is so far, the best urban fantasy series I've had the pleasure to come across in the adult genre.
One of the many reasons I am very saddened by the fact that the series is almost over is the difficulty I will surely come across trying to find a series that partially can exceed my rather simple expectations and still entertain me immensely such as this series. If what I hear is correct, it will not be easy.

I can't really explain it but it's crazy how much I don't like Danny.
I think this was my favorite book of the series so far. I cant wait to read the next one.
I want to kill this ending, chop it into tiny little bits and feed it to a vicious beast. Then maybe this agonizing cliff hanger will cease to exist. Or I could just count my blessings that there's a fifth book that's published and go devour it. Now.
Progress: 19%
I’m sorry but the only way for her to become stronger and gain these new powers was for her to be gang raped? That was really the only way?

Can't believe this book was this AWESOME!! I loved how it started and was heartbroken how it ended. I can't wait to see what happens but all I know is that Barrons is my new boyfriend. :-)
