World of Honey and Ice Books in Order

World of Honey and Ice expands the fae setting Shannon Mayer and Kelly St. Clare began in the original trilogy. The first three books focus on Alli’s rise through prophecy, court danger, and forbidden love. The later books keep the same atmosphere but widen the map, bringing in new threads of magic, romance, and political trouble.

The courts are still hungry.

This world is built on Seelie and Unseelie tension, old bargains, hidden bloodlines, and the kind of power that can look beautiful right up until it cuts. That makes it a good fit for readers who like fae fantasy where romance and politics are hard to separate. Love can be real and still be dangerous. A crown can protect someone and trap them at the same time.

Thorn Kissed and Silver Chains, Ivy Touched and Bronze Blade, and Black Rose and Gold Queen continue the larger world after the Honey and Ice trilogy. They bring fresh conflicts while keeping the same flavor: court secrets, sharp bargains, and heroines who have to decide what they will risk for freedom, power, and the people they love.

The coauthor blend stays important. Mayer’s pacing keeps the story moving, while St. Clare’s fantasy-romance instincts give the relationships and court structures room to breathe. The result is a world that feels lush without slowing down.

Start with A Court of Honey and Ash if you want the full foundation. The World of Honey and Ice books make more sense when you already understand the courts, the magic, and the emotional stakes set up in the trilogy. After that, follow publication order into the later titles.
