Description During Books Ironside (Modern Faerie Tales #3)
In the realm of Faerie, the time has come for Roiben's coronation. Uneasy in the midst of the malevolent Unseelie Court, pixie Kaye is sure of only one thing -- her love for Roiben. But when Kaye, drunk on faerie wine, declares herself to Roiben, he sends her on a seemingly impossible quest. Now Kaye can't see or speak to Roiben unless she can find the one thing she knows doesn't exist: a faerie who can tell a lie. Miserable and convinced she belongs nowhere, Kaye decides to tell her mother the truth -- that she is a changeling left in place of the human daughter stolen long ago. Her mother's shock and horror sends Kaye back to the world of Faerie to find her human counterpart and return her to Ironside. But once back in the faerie courts, Kaye finds herself a pawn in the games of Silarial, queen of the Seelie Court. Silarial wants Roiben's throne, and she will use Kaye, and any means necessary, to get it. In this game of wits and weapons, can a pixie outplay a queen? Holly Black spins a seductive tale at once achingly real and chillingly enchanted, set in a dangerous world where pleasure mingles with pain and nothing is exactly as it appears.Rating Epithetical Books Ironside (Modern Faerie Tales #3)

Far better than Ironside, this still just fell a little flat for me. RTCIt only took to the last book of the trilogy buuuuuut....I LOVED THIS ONE SO MUCH! It's like the Holly Black style that I adore and it's everything that I wanted and it's immensely faerieish and creepy and cruel and dark and WELL I AM A PLEASED SPRITE....although I have to admit, book 2, Valiant still makes exactly zero sense. It was about Luis, who has a part in this book, but it was narrated by Val, who has NO PART IN THIS BOOK WHATSOEVER. Random and odd? I thinkee yes.ANYWAY.I loved how
Sequel to Tithe. The one where Roiben of the Seelie Court finds himself in charge of the Unseelie, and tries to protect his love Kaye, a pixie changeling, by giving her an impossible quest.I really want to know what I'm doing wrong that I keep checking out books without knowing that they're sequels. Wouldn't you think they'd say so on the cover? The backstory/exposition was very skillfully done here (unlike Wicked Lovely, this book understands the difference between suspense and confusion), so
Loved this book!Ironside is the third installment of the Modern Faerie Tales series. I just love this dark and creepy series. Learning about the faerie world just keeps getting interesting and interesting. However, I'm still just wondering why the food is never good? Or is that just me...Now in this book, you will meet and fall in love with Corny. He was definitely amazing and perfect in my eyes. Any character that speaks sarcasm will always connect with me. ALWAYS. Yeah, that's pretty much it.
Holly Black is an amazing writer, no matter which series youre reading. Her writing is sooooo atmospheric, immersive and dark you can almost feel the chill in the air and smell crispy leaves 🍁 Nor does she shy away from portraying the dark side of humanity.This was by far my favorite book of the series and I enjoyed every bit of it! I loved the close friendship between Kaye and Corny, and their shared grief of Janet. I loved the support they gave each other in dealing with their different
This was nearly as good as the first book, which is my favourite in this series. It had an actual quest and adventure, like the first. But it focused mostly on Kaye, Corny, and Luis (a returning character from book 2), and not enough Roiben. And there was very little romance. The most sexually charged scene was actually between two supporting characters. It was brief but you could tell it was heated. I wouldn't have been disappointed if we had seen more of them. This book remains primarily a
