But, with the exception of Seth, I care not a jot about these characters. The four main characters which this story focuses on are Aislinn (recently a mortal, now a faery and the Summer Queen), Seth (Aislinn's love and still very much mortal), Keenan (Summer King and egotistical *bleep* who constantly tries to steal Aislinn from Seth) and, finally, Donia (Winter Queen who's in love with Keenan). That's where this sort of fell flat for me.

And that, for the most part, is fine as long as the characters are well written and the politics and world building interesting. The series has always been big on world building, character development and faerie politics, especially when compared to the amount of action present.

And that's a bit of a shame because I felt Ink Exchange was a stronger book than Wicked Lovely, and a much stronger book than Fragile Eternity. Book two, Ink Exchange, featured characters not present in this book, it was more of a companion novel to Wicked Lovely. Despite being the third in the series, this is more of a sequel to book one Wicked Lovely.
