Their history and their personalities were once again more developed than before and I absolutely love seeing the dynamic relationships between the crewmate of the Ketty Jay. Wooding didn’t spare any of the crew in Ketty Jay from getting the justifiable treatment for character development. By this point of the series, I feel like the crew of Ketty Jay has truly become my real life friends and reading their adventures put a smile upon my face. However, more importantly, their characteristics never stop developing and somehow, gets more empathizing with each book progression. This team of ragtag were hilarious, dysfunctional, and destructive to everything in their path. I can’t emphasize this highly enough, the characters of the Ketty Jay crew are a riot that never stops wreaking havoc. However, everything was just so well-written and well-executed that I just want to continue reading regardless of knowing the outcome. Don’t get me wrong, as far as predictability, the story was still highly predictable despite the higher stake no argument from me there. It was more intense, more action-packed without neglecting the crucial and great characterizations, and I highly enjoyed reading the book.
Where the first two books were about getting a mission to gain wealth, this book was more of a race against time to save Frey’s own life. Unlike the storytelling structure in the previous two books, The Iron Jackal progressed a bit differently and it’s something I immensely appreciate. I’m so glad to be proven wrong, The Iron Jackal ended up being the most fun book in the series so far. The Iron Jackal greatly built upon the foundations that have been well-established in the first half of the series.ĭespite having enjoyed the first half of the quartet, I was getting a bit scared that the fun and enjoyment of the series would start to dwindle in the third and penultimate installment of the series. He also learned not so long ago that his family tree can be traced back to John Milton, author of Paradise Lost, which has no bearing on him whatsoever but it’s kind of interesting anyway. When he wasn’t travelling on his own, he spent his twenties touring with bands and seeing the UK and Europe from the back of a van. He writes for film and television, and has several projects in development.Ĭhris has travelled extensively round the world, having backpacked all over Europe and North America, Scandinavia, South East Asia, Japan and South Africa.

When he left university he began to write full-time, and he has been doing it professionally all his adult life. By nineteen he had signed his first book deal. He was sixteen when he completed his first. Chris Wooding grew up in a small town in Leicestershire, where not much of anything happened.
