Series Review: The Suitable 'Verse by R. Cooper

Greetings and welcome to Reviews That Burn: Series Reviews, part of Books That Burn. Series Reviews discuss at least three books in a series and cover the overarching themes and development of the story across several books. Full Audio Here Powerful noble families known as the beat-of-fours, answerable only to a ruler and the mysterious, godlike fae, scheme and squabble amongst themselves, and go to war for the chance to put one of their own on the throne. But the fae might be pulling more strings than the nobles realize and they definitely have their favorites. A series of love stories loosely centered around the political crisis that led to the current ruler, featuring oblivious librarians, crafty though loving kings, an innocent half-fae noble, a legendary outlaw turned conqueror, worried warriors, clever guards, and an infamous beauty.

Feedback by Mira Grant, aka Seanan McGuire (Newsflesh, #4)

‪Feedback by Mira Grant is refreshing. It’s zombies, politics, blogging, lesbians, a platonic marriage, the first genderqueer character I’ve ever read, death, and conspiracies. It’s an Irish girl in a sundress with a winsome smile as she shoots a zombie raccoon.

If that doesn’t make you want to read it, I don’t know what could. It mentions some main plot events from Feed, but, to be fair, Blackout mentions a pretty big event in this book. If you intend to read the whole series, I recommend starting with the original trilogy (Feed, Deadline, Blackout) before coming here, but if you are reading either one book or nothing, make damn sure you read this one.

CW for violence, gore, major character death.
