Publishers Summary:
Don’t look at Them. Never let Them know you can see Them.
That is Ethan Chase’s unbreakable rule. Until the fey he avoids at all costs—including his reputation—begin to disappear, and Ethan is attacked. Now he must change the rules to protect his family. To save a girl he never thought he’d dare to fall for.
Ethan thought he had protected himself from his older sister’s world—the land of Faery. His previous time in the Iron Realm left him with nothing but fear and disgust for the world Meghan Chase has made her home, a land of myth and talking cats, of magic and seductive enemies. But when destiny comes for Ethan, there is no escape from a danger long, long forgotten.
The story picks up 15 years after Megan has left to become the Iron Queen in Nevernever. Ethan has been trying for those past years to forget the Fey even exist and live a normal life, but he might as well forget that as things spiral out of control when he's attacked by Fey he's never heard or, or seen before. Leaving him no choice, Ethan is forced to disappear into Nevernever with a fellow student in tow, and the adventure truly begins.
I got this book free from publisher in exchange for an honest review, now let me say that I have never read the Iron Fey series from Julie Kagawa, but now I really want to! The book as itself, though clearly a spin-off from the aforementioned series can certainly stand on it’s own. Like any good book there were moments that I laughed, got angry (at other characters because Ethan was angry at them.) and was shocked. I even cried. (This is rare. The last time I actually burst out in tears when reading a book, was at the death of Fred in Harry Potter.)
The story sucked me in from the word GO and I never put it down, except when I was forced to charge my tablet! When I finished it, I looked up at the time and in shock saw it read 4:56AM! Only a good book can make me loose track of time and The Lost Prince is no exception.
I highly recommend anyone to read this, whether they’ve read the Iron Fey series or not. It’s an excellent read and I'll be looking out for the next!
