Once, when I picked up a book from the local library, the librarian asked to tell her what I thought about the book when I would bring it back. Well, why not write a few lines about all the books I read so everybody could see what I thought about it? I'm often also happy to have friends recommend a certain book or tell me this and that is not really worth reading. I won't comment about the tons of books I have read so far, but about books I read from now on.

You do know the Iron Fey Saga, right? You have read the first five books in the series, right? If not, then go and read the first five books before starting with this one. Without knowing what has happened before, it would be very hard to figure out what happens and why.
The "old" heros, Puck, Ash, Grimalkin and Meghan, are there, but only play minor roles. All the action is really centered around Ethan, Kenzie and Keirran.
This book too, is told in the voice of Meghan's brother Ethan. It's been only a week since Ethan and Kenzie returned from the Nevernever and no dust has yet settled over that. But one of their new friends is desperately looking for help. They can hardly refuse such a plea, can they? And you can bet they get into way more trouble than they care for. Plus some of their actions trigger huge changes in the Nevernever.
As usually, Julie Kagawa writes in a very captivating way. Lots of action. Sometimes almost too many things happening. And the end is very abrupt, not like a real end of a book, but much more like the end of one part of a TV stories, leaving more questions open than it gives answers, so you basically need to continue with the next part.
