Review: Winter's Passage


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....

My Rating: 4 Stars

This is a very quick read.  Even with it only being 49 pages there is still quite a bit of retelling from The Iron King.  However with that said there is a also a further progression to the story so it is well worth the read.  This novella picks off right where The Iron King left off, Ash has come to collect Meghan so that he can take her back to the Winter Court and to his mother, Queen Mab.  Not a lot of detail can be given about a novella without giving away too much but I do suggest reading this.  There is more than enough story progression to make it worth it.

“If there are three things I’ve learned in my time among the fey, they are this: 
don’t eat anything you’re offered in Faeryland, 
don’t go swimming in quiet little ponds and never, ever, make a bargain with anyone.”

  1. Novellas can be tricky! I'm trying to write one right now, and yeah, so different from novels. But I didn't know this one in Julie Kagawa's series existed. Thanks for sharing!
