This is a great series. I really enjoyed Never Never and am sad to see it come to an end. I enjoyed this book a lot and felt it was a perfect ending to this book series. There were a few parts in this story where my only thoughts were "No!", but I made it thru that hard parts and stuck with it to the end. I loved how Ash went to get a soul so he could be with Meghan. It was a hard journey and I loved The Wolf (The Big Bad Wolf) I was more than happy to see Puck tag along and I enjoyed their road to slowly but surely recovering their friendship.

This books is wonderful fairytale that you must read if you already read the other books in this amazing series! Julie did it wonderful with the storytelling and the describing of the countryside. This isn't just a book that you will forget and after reading the series you can imagine that this world is true and I can't wait to read more about the fae.
I saw that the next part of the series is coming soon in Dutch so then I'll read that. (05-2014) You really need to read this series if you secretly still love fairytales and if your daydreaming the hole day.
***Reread this in 2017 and still love it! It's a little more cheesy now but still amazing!

Prince Ash was the last prince of the Unseelie Court, and his fall began when he fell in love with a mortal girl. She was the half- human and half- fey daughter of Oberon – the king of the Seelie Court.
Ash gave up his title as a Prince and turned his back on his Queen. He doesn’t even care becoming an outcast and living an exiled life forever just so he could be with her. He even took the oath and became her KNIGHT to make their bond even stronger.
Ash thought he could now spend his entire existence with her but it all changed when she severed their bond in order to save him and the entire faery. She took the role of IRON QUEEN and ruled the IRON COURT where no SUMMER and WINTER fey like him could survive.
And now, for him to survive in the iron realm, he must earn a soul and become human.
The story revolved around Ash and his adventures toward mortality. He must complete the trials given by the Guardian of the End of the World for him to earn his soul. He must survive this final step to mortality just for a girl named Meghan Chase.
It was such a good story that I deliberately slowed down my reading speed just to stop the inevitable, which is reading the last page of the book and the last word of the story.

Good book. I wish we got to see more on the other end but that’s what the next 3-4 books are for! Go Ash!
The Iron Knight Now Has An Iron Soul
First, I'd like to start off this review with a possible spoiler. BUT IT WILL ONLY BE IN THIS PARAGRAPH.... SOMETHING DRASTIC HAS HAPPENED IN THIS FINAL IRON FEY NOVEL... GRIMALKIN WAS WRONG. WHAT?! MIND. BLOWN.
Erm. Anyways. After that embarrassing fan-girl moment, in all seriousness, this book was absolutely AMAZING. I will admit, however, that in the beginning I wasn't nearly as enthralled as I was during the third part of the book. But once I began reading the third part of this book, I was on an emotional roller-coaster that refused to stop until it came to a soft and fitting stop and the end of the book. I cried at so many parts during this book, I'm having a hard time myself believing it really happened.
When I first started reading The Iron Knight, I was a little weary that we would just get another POV from Meghan... But we would be following Ash instead. But that wasn't the case AT ALL. Kagawa was very successful at giving Ash his own voice in this series, and I was amazed and enchanted by the change that occurred throughout the novel. Starting off as a cold, detached and flippant voice that we all know and love, Ashes voice evolved into a much more lovable and reachable character, all while still being himself. If that makes any sense.
All in all, I really loved this book, probably more so than the Iron Queen and I if you're sitting there, reading this and debating if you should bother to go out and buy the book... Do it for Grim. Because their is nothing better than a cat.
Ps; I loved the ending Kagawa gave Grim. Makes him all the more awesome in my eyes!
