The Iron Knight (Harlequin Teen)by Julie Kagawa 400 pages, Harlequin, (2011-10-25)$9.99 (Amazon.com)

Yesterday was the release of the final book in the Iron Fey series. I absorbed the first three books. They are amazing adventure stories full of dangerous creatures. I’ve started The Iron Knight but unfortunately I haven’t finished it. I had hoped to get back to it and have a review ready for today, however, I ran out of time. My apologies! I’ll have review up as soon as I can. Today I have the honor of presenting an excerpt from The Iron Knight! There are many other blogs participating, so keep going to see the other excerpts.

This was a dangerous part of the wyldwood, more so than most— not because of the catoblepas and the jabberwocks and other monsters that called the dark swamp their home, but because of the resident who lived somewhere deep within the marsh. The one we were going to see. Something flew past my head from behind, barely missing me, and spattered against a trunk a few feet away. Stopping beneath the tree, I turned and glared at my companion, silently daring him to do that again.

I can certainly say that it is quite different being inside of Ash’s head. To be honest that’s why I stopped reading. He is not as flawless as Meghan made him out to be. He’s quite the brooding type and I was not in the mood to be reading about his depression. But I love this story and I will be giving it another go soon. Read the next excerpt over at Reading Teen tomorrow!
