A Midsummer's Nightmare?
Robin Goodfellow. Puck. Summer Court prankster, King Oberon's right hand, bane of many a faery queen's existence—and secret friend to Prince Ash of the Winter Court. Until one girl's death came between them, and another girl stole both their hearts.
Now Ash has granted one favor too many and someone's come to collect, forcing the prince to a place he cannot go without Puck's help—into the heart of the Summer Court. Puck faces the ultimate choice—betray Ash and possibly win the girl they both love, or help his former friend turned bitter enemy pull off a deception that no true faery prankster could possibly resist.
Don't miss the next chapter of the Iron Fey saga, The Lost Prince.

You would have to read the other books in the series to understand the begining, since this is just a fun little spin-off. Once you get to the 10th page, the story is easy to follow and easy to understand. It is a fun little stodry that isn't too short, but it isn't really long either. The book is only 54 pages and is ideal for when you have some down time to spare.

This Harlequin Teen short story was a fun twist on the famous characters from "A Midsummer Night's Dream". I am interested in reading more complete stores.

I was pleasently surprised by how good this book was. I throughly enjoyed it, but I wish there was more info on the characters and setting and more story. It kind if ends before it really gets started.

I love Kagawa's writing and the Iron Fey Series is AWESOME! Puck's character is a very interesting one; I love his humor towards everything! On the other hand, Ash is the serious one who rarely cracks any jokes. This adventure happens between books in the Iron Fey Series when Meagan Chase (the half-fey girl's attention both fey boys are vying for). I would recommend this series (including both novelas,Summers Crossing and Winters Passage) to anyone who enjoys a good teen romance as well as the suspenseful action, the hilarious characers, and paranormal (mystical) characters!

This book was a great like quest inbetween #3-#4. It didn't really give anything away. So you could read it out of order if you want. But its a good little book that goes a little deeper into the lives of our two dueling males. And it was nice to get a Puck perspective on all the issues. Great book.

Great series book! Looking forward to reading the others. The book you should read, when testing for a new series to start. So excited to read the others. I have already read 3 other of these books, and all of them are amazing.

I read this as my intro to the series. The concept was intriging, the ploy wasnt too bad, I like I stumbled upon the charcters and just started rolling with them. This I liked, a great formula for a short story.
From the POV of Puck, Ash was somewhat of vague discription, and I felt he was only a surface character. I enjoyed Puck, his humor, cleaverness, intelligence and that he was relateable.
However, from the first page I questioned the authors ability to transform readers to another world. Fey, having their own existence and culture, I would imagine, would not need to reference human pop culture and slang. They are supposed to be very old yet that connection was never reenforced.
All in all I was a bit disappointed and will not continue on with the series based on the above and reviews regarding the novels. I will search for a simiular concept, just much better written.

So in this short Novella we get to see how Puck and Ash interact when Meghan isn't around. After the Heartbreaking ending in book 3 (yes I'm still thinking about it....) Puck and Ash are going in search of Grim, trouble is Grim doesn't really feel like being found (I love that cat) but before that Lea the exiled queen, calls Ash upon the favour he owns her, Ash has to get back a "Violin" that someone stole from her. Easy right? Well not so much seing that the person who stole it is Queen Titania, Queen of the Summer Court. So Ash, with Puck's help must disguse himself in order to get into the Summer Court without being killed. I really felt sorry for Puck and was scared for a moment as he seemed to have done something unthinkable, but then I breathed calmly again as he didn't really do what he had seemed to do (confusing right?? Well unless you've read the book, in that case you'll know what I'm talking about)
In all this book was awsome but short so it get's 4 stars.

It's just a short story if you've already read the series you might as well read this. Plus it will give you a little more insight.

Whether an introduction to the world or an additional part of the series this is a great story. This novella falls between the 3rd and 4th book.
