The faery world and all magic, eccentric and wild creatures… too many tend to bog me down and I just get confused with trying to use so much of my imagination to create the pictures in my mind. Not to say it’s not a good book - I did enjoy it - but I think I easily get lost in what I can’t relate to. Overall, I think the whole faery world just is not for me. It was another “forbidden love” that I really rooted for. I started getting into the whole relationship with Meghan and Ash towards the end too. I adored their friendship and Puck was hands down my favorite character with all his spunk and joviality (is that a word?) - They made a great duo and Puck was the perfect sidekick/bodyguard. I really enjoyed Meghan’s character, especially her interaction with Robbie/Puck. I’m not a really big fantasy person and I think THE IRON KING unfortunately solidified that. But… I just don’t think faeries are my thing. This was a really, really creative story and I loved how in depth the world of the fey was. Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil, no faery creature dare face and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart. When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change.īut she could never have guessed the truth - that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. She has never quite fit in at school or at home. Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan's life, ever since her father disappeared before her eyes when she was six.
