I like The Lost Prince. 
 *** 
 (let me vent out first) 
 This is not as entertaining as I expected it to be. Ethan, you suck! 
 (breathes deeply) 
 For all things JKagawa-ish, The Lost Prince is disappointing and I say that with a sad heart. Angry, angsty Ethan for the 1/3 of the book is good. Still angry, angsty Ethan during 2/3 - frowned upon. Angry, angsty Ethan until I finished is downright irritating. I totally get where he's coming from. But geez, Ethan still sounds like the whiny kid who got abducted by the faeries years ago! 
 I was excited to go back to Nevernever, but as the book progresses, I realize... there was nothing new to rave about. Sure, there's Grimalkin and the Iron Realm. A glimpse of Meghan, Ash, and Puck (Leanansidhe, too). But it stops there. When the story goes back to Ethan and Kenzie, I was like, meh. Here we go again with their drama. 
 The "Guro" element was weird. I am sure that we didn't use that term when we address our instructors. (I think I need to find Kali students to confirm if they really call their teachers "Guro".) And the "Mang-Huhula", too. That's the Filipino term for a fortune-teller or, a Seer. Imagine me frowning while I encounter these words in the book. Sigh. 
 If not for Puck's endearing cameo roles (I love that guy) and Ash's (Yes!), this would've been a total fail for an Iron Fey fan like me. I'm even more interested in Kierran's plight than Ethan's! Yeah, I'm so unhappy. =( 
 The Lost Prince is The Iron King with only a guy (a very annoying one at that) as MC. See? Nothing new about it. 
 Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin for granting my galley request.
