Review: Still a huge fan of this series

Well this review is harder to write than I thought it would be as I am a huge fan of the series. I think my favourites were The Phantom and The Goblin King to date. Eagerly anticipating the arrival of this book I have to admit that I did not really love it as much as the others. I  enjoy books about the Fae but I felt this book had a lot more steamy romance than anything else and not enough interaction between the main characters. Yes there were some pretty big events but that was towards the end of the book. The relationship between The Seelie King and his queen felt too right if you know what I mean. No OMG I am queen moments where Selene became overwhelmed and fearful, she just accepted who she was and sought justice for those she cared about. Lots of old friends show up such as Roman, Lily and Daniel to name a few. I had visions of the "Knights of the round table" where the Kings banded together to thwart the evil threating their family and friends. This is just my personal opinion and having said that, Heather is a wonderful storyteller who weaves a richly woven tapesty of characters that we as readers become invested in. I am looking forward to the Unseelie King and hopefully it will reset the tone for this series.
