Review & Giveaway: The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa

     In the first three well-loved installments of the Iron Fey series, readers were taken on epic journeys of adventure, imagination and romance as the half mortal/half fey Meghan Chase fought to discover her destiny in the land of the Never-never.  Throughout her trials always at her side were her mischievous best friend Robin “Puck” Goodfellow and the sometimes cold Prince Ash of the rival Winter Court. Conversely Ash once a sworn enemy was eventually revealed to be the true love of Meghan’s now supernatural life.

 However as events unfolded Meghan soon realized that in order to save the world of the fey and all those whom she had come to love, a sacrifice must be made. And so Meghan Chase became the Iron Queen, ruler of a realm that would prove deadly to all fey who tried to co-exist there. And so she was forced in an act of supreme unselfish devotion to banish her lover out of the realm so that he could live on away from the iron that would eat away at his very being. But true to the stubbornness of the Winter Fey, Ash vowed as her knight to return to her and be by her side for eternity.

 Thus begins the extremely exciting tale of The Iron Knight and in turn a quest straight out of ancient mythology. Prince Ash now yearns not for immortality or the thrill of the quest but for the chance to be human and remain with Meghan forever in the Iron Kingdom. In order to do so he must journey far beyond the Never-never to places unseen by most and feared by all.  By his side a most unlikely assemblage will push him forward into a trial not only of his strength and intelligence but also of his past, present and future.

 Members of Team Ash will rejoice in this latest book in the series as it chronicles the Winter Prince’s journey into the unknown to prove his love knows no bounds.  As a surprising array of companions return to accompany him and the ultimate temptation abounds, the story of Prince Ash and his past come to life in a whole new way for devoted fans of the beloved series.

 Deeply insightful, daring and filled with unanticipated background information, The Iron Knight could provide what may possibly be the perfect ending to a spectacular series or the beginning of a whole new chapter in the world of the fey.

  1. Ash is definitely hotter than Puck and he can keep the cold away.

    I am reading Karen Marie Moning’s Fever series about the fey. I love it, and am intrigued that another is writing books that sound like they are in a different setting but in a similar vein. So I would love to try one of these books.

  24. Thanks for the giveaway! I’m definitely Team Ash but my favorite thing about the series (particularly Iron Queen) is how all of the characters mature and become better people.

      I agree Ashley “The Iron Queen” was really where I fell in love with the characters…they matured for me and became real. It’s probably my favorite book from the series although I have enjoyed each book in it’s own way! Thanks for entering!

  25. Hey! I haven’t read this series yet, but I’ve been hearing about it all around and how awesome it is, so I thought I’d give it a try. 😉 The amazing covers did catch my attention, plus the plot sounds amazing! And based on the cover of the Iron Knight, I’m beginning to think I’m Team Ash! 😛

  26. My favorite part of the Iron Fey series is The Iron Queen (the entire book). I love it so much I could cry!

    Thanks for the giveaway.

  44. I like Puck, Ash has too common of a personality. But my favorite part of the series was from the first book when Meghan’s had the stuff bunny named Floppy. My favorite childhood toy was my stuff bunnies named Floppy(I have three cause I kept losing him and my mother would have to go out and get me a new one but then we would end up find the other later). I slept with them until they became to worn and had to be put on a shelf. Its what made me buy the book in the first place. I got the sample and then read about Floppy and had to buy it.
