Iced: A Fever Novel Mass Market Description

Review

“Moning returns to the heady world of her Fever series, and the results are addictive and consistently surprising. . . . The best elements of Moning’s sensual, shadowy epic are still here, from the sensual and enigmatic Fae to the super-alpha heroes and the breathless pace of their escalating conflicts. At its heart is a heroine whose development is likely to become the stuff of legends as this unforgettable, haunting series continues to evolve.”—RT Book Reviews
 
“This is one of my favorite 2012 reads . . . It’s engaging, hilarious, amazing and Dani is going to be one heck of a woman.”—USA Today
 
“A gripping story that combines excellent storytelling with believable characters that are rendered both superhuman and superbly human, with emotional fragility and psychological vulnerability in an unstable world fraught with danger . . . Fast-paced, with nonstop action set in a fascinating urban fantasy world of Dublin under siege, this is a smart, bold and textured success.”─Kirkus Reviews
 
“Moning is a master storyteller. I don’t know how she does it, but she begs me to get on my knees and pay worship to the woman who has brought me the best, most labyrinthine stories and characters I’ve ever had the privilege to get to know. She weaves brilliantly, unapologetically, and without exception, and she has threaded the needle into me and I’ve been pulled, over and over, into her tapestry, and I don’t think I’m ever getting out. Iced is no exception.”—The Bawdy Book Blog (five-starred review)
 
“Moning has taken a beloved series and made it better. . . . [She] has a way of bringing the reader into the story with her imaginative writing style and characters that are colorful and entertaining. . . . Please give Iced a try, you will become a Dani fan just like I did.”—Night Owl Romance (top pick)
 
“An exciting opening of a new Fever saga . . . Readers will enjoy that the prime Fever cast plays major roles and the introduction of two new unique dangerous Fae who widen the mythos.”—Genre Go Round Reviews
 
“[Moning] has always managed to give me everything I want in a book. . . . Iced will not disappoint.”—Open Book Society
 
“We get edge of your seat action and danger. We get the promise of so much more to come. All in all, this is an excellent start to Dani’s trilogy.”—Scandalicious Book Reviews
 
“Of course, I ended up loving this book. Just like I love everything [Moning] writes.”—Fiction Vixen

Let me start by saying that I adored the first five books. I have read them over and over and waited anxiously for the release of this installment. I almost took a day off work just to devote to my impending worship of this novel. I, like many others, was initially wary of KMM's plans to make her lead character the 14 year old Dani, who I felt to be mostly a nuisance character in the series. But I trusted KMM, especially when she assured us in her blogs and facebook page, over and over, that we would come to love Dani. That we would forget all about Mac and Barrons. And that the material was in no way YA.

Umm...not so much.

The book isn't terrible, it's just not a consistent continuation of the gripping story like the first five books that originally won my heart. In truth, in my second read, I've upped my rating from the 2 stars I was tempted to give it initially.

Here's what I liked:

Dancer. Finally learned more about who he is and I like him as a character.
Christian. Dramatic turn to his character, I am curious to see where KMM takes him from here.
Lor. I think he's hilarious in a dry, scenestealing kind of way.
Hoar Frost King and Crimson Hag. Creative, terrifying. Doubt we've seen the last of either of them.
Ryodan. Can't tell if he's a good guy, a complete ass, or sometimes both. I like the fact that I'm still not sure.

Here's what I kinda still don't care about, even after two reads:

Dani. Yeah, that's bad when you aren't invested in the main character after two reads of the book.
Kat and Sean. Who were they again?

Here's what I REALLY didn't like:

Dani is 14. I don't want to read about a 14 year old.
2 Grown men sexually attracted to a 14 year old. Eew.

I was really intrigued by Ryo in the Fever books, so I was hoping we would get tons of him in this book and oh yeah baby, lotso Ryo.

For the Christian fans he is in there too, (although he was not in my top 5) I like the way he is evolving in this book.

I am going to be careful so as not to give out spoilers. I have waited so long for this book and started reading at 9:15 last night and just finished at 2:00 am. My brain hurts, but there was no way I could put it down. Had to finish and know EVERYTHING, at least everything we get in this book.

Lor is in this book more, and we see more of the 7. Not in a lot of detail, just more.

Dani is such a great paradox, what a fantastic character. On the one hand she is a genius, on the other hand she is a hormonal teenager, and the obvious stuff she doesn't see about relationships just makes me want to shake my head.

I was a little nervous about Ryodan, just b/c after Barrons (who I am pretty sure my heart still beats for) it is hard to have another Alpha character and not repeat the previous. KMM did not, Ryo is so his own guy. I will say after all Barrons judge me on my actions, you have to switch gears as Ryo is all about the head trip. In some ways he was a harder anti hero to get behind, b/c some of the things he does are just...you are going to have to read it.

I will re-read tomorrow, right now my head is full of Ice, Chesters, Ryo & Dani.

For the Mac fans - there are glimpses of her and Barrons - but that is it, Glimpses - this is Dani's book, and while I would have loved for it to be more Mac & Barrons, I guess the point was it is about Dani.

For those who like to skip ahead to the end of the book, do yourself a favor and don't.
