Meghan Chase wants nothing more than to return home to her mother, step-dad, and little brother. Shes gotten as far as her front yard when out of nowhere she is attacked by spidery-type iron fey creatures. Just when she thought that maybe she could return to a normal mortal life, Meghan is drawn back into the world of Never Never.
Ash, Puck, and Meghan are approached by representatives from the Summer and Winter Courts, and their banishments will be lifted if they agree to come back to Faery and aide in fighting the (new) Iron King. His army is encroaching on the magical lands, destroying everything in its path. Soon, there will be nothing left of the Summer and Winter Courts. The two sides have formed a reluctant alliance in their war. Of course, Meghan knows that the bargain means they want her to journey into the Iron realm and kill the Iron King.
Aided by the ever entertaining Grim, the three journey into the desolate land. Meghan is drawn by some unknown force, guiding her to where they need to go. They encounter a small band of resistant iron fey who soon become allies in the battle. With the aid of Glitch and an entertaining gremlin named Razor, Meghan does what she can to defeat the new Iron King.
THE IRON QUEEN, in my humble opinion, is the best tale of the series to date. From early on, the adrenaline rush starts, and doesnt let up until the back cover is closed. And even at that point, when I got to the final page, I wanted to scream, No! Dont leave me hanging like this!
Meghan is such a strong character and has many hard choices to make. Ultimately, she is faced with what she wants and what needs to be done. Its a hard decision for anyone to make, and hardly easy for a seventeen-year-old. But Meghan follows her destiny with heart, spirit, and the assistance of true friends.
But its not Meghan that kept me entranced throughout the entire book. Can I say Go team Ash?" The Winter Prince is truly the most captivating part of this novel. The tension between Ash and Puck is non-stop, but its Ashs unfailing loyalty to Meghan that just melts the heart.
Im eager to see how THE IRON KNIGHT plays out, knowing that Ashs story will next be told.
