ARC Review: Iron Queen {Iron Fey, #3} by Julie Kagawa

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My name is Meaghan Chase.
I thought it was over.That my time with the fey, the impossible choices I had to make, the sacrifices of those I loved, was behind me. But a storm is approaching, an army of Iron fey that will drag me back, kicking and screaming. Drag me away from the banished prince who's sworn to stay by my side. Drag me into the core of a conflict so powerful, I'm not sure anyone can survive it.
This time, there will be no turning back.

*Contain spoilers if you haven’t read the previous books in the series

I have been having a really hard time getting into any YA books, but as with Rachel Vincent’s Soul Screammers series, Julie Kagawa’s Iron Fey is one I cannot deny and have to read it as soon as possible. Thanks to NetGalley, i was able to read it early.

Iron Queen starts not long after the end of Iron Daughter, with Meaghan and Ash banished to the human realm and Megan on the way to visiting her family after a long time. Ash and Meaghan are ambushed and then realize their fighting is far from over. Now they need to go back to Faery and destroy the false Iron King before he destroy the Seelie and Unseelie world.

I loved Iron Daughter so much that I had a lot of expectations regarding Iron Queen, however, even though I was very pleasantly surprised by where Julie is taking Meaghan and Ash’s story, I ruined the experience myself by reading the end before I started the book… I KNOW , I KNOW! Never mind that LOL

Iron Queen is a hell of a ride, non-stop action, Meaghan being a kick-as heroine, Ash being as swoon worthy as usual and Puck being funny and an ass most of the time. Such thrilling adventure, full of surprises and twists that one can’t help but be completely fascinated by it!

I really love what Julie is doing with these characters. I love that she doesn’t gloss over the hardest parts of being a teenager and has made Meaghan such a real and relatable character, of course with all the paranormal stuff added to it. Julie also doesn’t pretend that teenagers don’t have sex and is not afraid to write about their feelings and how they deal with such an important step in their lives.

All in all, Iron Queen is a fantastic addition to this completely addictive series and I am so freaking happy that there will be a 4th book. I can’t wait to read Ash’s story in The Iron Knight!
