Book Review:Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa


“Don’t do this. If you don’t come out of this soon, you’ll fade away and drift forever. Fight it. Come back to us.” 
I didn’t want to wake up. There was nothing but pain waiting for me in the real world. If I was asleep, I couldn’t feel anything. If I was asleep, I didn’t have to face Ash and the cold contempt on his face when he looked at me. Darkness was my retreat, my sanctuary. I drew back from Ash’s voice, deeper into the comforting blackness. "


Meghan Chase has been an outcast all her life in the mortal world, being a half-breed Summer Fey does not change that. Cold and abandoned by Prince Ash she finds herself  prisoner to the Winter Queen. Caught in the middle of the turmoil in the courts, as the Scepter of the Seasons has been stolen, a winter prince killed and the Winter Fey are accusing the Summer Court for this treachery. Faery powers bound, Meghan must not only find a way to stop the pending war between the Winter and Summer Court but convince the Fey that the Iron Realm does indeed exist.  This book is packed with things I love Fairies, love triangles, and action. This is a great read!

My Rating: 4 out of 5 

Recommended Reading: If you like books about fairies here are a few that might peek your interest. Wondrous Strange by Lesley Livingston, Wings by Aprilynne Pike, Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr, Extraordinary by Nancy Werlin, Ash by Malinda Lo, Need by Carrie Jones and The Fairie Path by Frewin Jones. For adults that want something more "adult" try the Merry Gentry series by Laurell K. Hamilton(WARNING!! these are some hot books).
