After a very slow start, I eventually got invested in the story and ended up enjoying it.

Perhaps because our daughter loves the Tinkerbell movies, or perhaps because our family homeschools, I am always on the lookout for new Young Adult Christian works of fiction. So when the review opportunity for Of Ink and Iron appeared, I knew I wanted to read it.

This book combines elements of fantasy, courage, and faith that result in a work of fiction sure to capture your imagination. Jaye and her brother Thomas serve as guardians and find themselves stuck in the Otherworld. Circumstances force Jaye to work with Ravven Crowe, an arrogant solitary faerie, in order to save her brother.

The story moves at an excellent pace, and the characters appear realistic. So check out this work of Young Adult fantasy for yourself.

I received a complimentary copy of this book, but this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I am so impressed with this story that I hated to see it end. I loved how the author takes us to the Otherworld where a true adventure begins. I am going to tell you how much I loved Jaye. She is very intuitive. As she and her brother Thomas get trapped in the Otherworld I could envision the faeries and their powers in full display. It’s not everyday that a mortal is asked to be the Fair Assassin. It is an honor and with it comes great danger and power.

Ravven is definitely my favorite character in the story. Oh I know he is a faerie but I think there is more that he isn’t sharing. There are subtle hints that he is more powerful than others . Jaye has to perform three tasks in order to pass the test and become the Fair Assassin. These tests are difficult and really show her strength mentally. Behind everything she is doing, she is trying to save her brother. Their bond is undeniable and I liked how the author showed the importance of standing up to protect family.

There are quite a few characters that I wasn’t sure I trusted. They each have a desire for revenge. Is it possible that Jaye is being used ? It is hard for Jaye to trust Ravven but I don’t think she has a choice. She needs to rely on her instincts to determine who is lying to her. Her life and her brothers life depend on her making the right choice. The ending is oh so good but alas it is cliffhanger. I hope the author writes fast, because I need to continue the story. I have become invested in the characters and I must know who has betrayed Jaye.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.

This is a YA fantasy about a teenage girl named Alicia Hareton, who happens to be quite ordinary. Except for the fact that her mother is crazy, and she may have inherited the trait. And the fact that she has never been allowed to set foot off of their property. And the fact that she only ever wears blue dresses that she numbers as first favorite, second favorite, etc. even though they all look exactly alike. And, oh yeah, she has this weird thing where she can summon the winds, control the elements, and open portals to parallel universes.

Maybe, on second thought, she isn't quite that ordinary.

I loved this book, and found it to be sassy and engaging from beginning to end. I am NOT a fantasy buff, and honestly did not have high expectations, but from Chapter One this book was pure fun and a delight. The many subtle literary and movie references added to the appeal greatly. Even the fact that it ends in a semi-cliffhanger did not stop my enjoyment of the book, although books that do that often annoy me. The book was very skillfully and entertainingly written, and I cannot wait to read more by this author. It is clean for all audiences (although there are a couple kissing scenes and a very brief episode of mild innuendo), which I can appreciate in any book.
