Our Review, by LITERAL ADDICTION's Scholastic Siren - Sara:
**This review may contain minor spoilers from previous books.
SMOKE AND IRON starts right where we left off with ASH AND QUILL and the rest of the Great Library series.
Because the group is scattered, we get different POV chapters in this book, but the author pulls it off beautifully. While I am not always a fan of this storytelling method, it seems necessary for all the moving pieces here, and was wonderfully done.
The plotting is exquisite, and gets better with each new entry to the series. The characters have grown and changed as the series progresses, and they feel like real people. Each book is like a novel-length chapter to the overall arc. You want to start at the beginning [and we suggest you do!], but you will never want them to end.
I think this idea started as a five-book series, but I’m hoping for many more.
