My name is Meghan 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 stand by my side. Drag me into the core of conflict so powerful, I'm not sure anyone can survive it.

This time, there will be no turning back.

This entire series is amazing, and I’m so sad that it’s over, or at least from Meghan’s point-of-view. I’ve been sucked in since page one of The Iron King and I feel so lost now after finishing The Iron Queen. I couldn’t put this book down, but at the same time I wanted it to last and not be over so soon.

Meghan has grown so much more in this book. She is finally focusing more on doing what is right even if she might lose out. She was hesitant at in the beginning, but once she began this journey, she realized how serious it all was at that in the end she would lose everything if she didn’t do what needed to be done. She is so strong even when she’s scared.

I loved seeing her and Ash’s relationship become so much deeper. And it was a big part in the story without being a focus. It helped to push her to make the right decisions even if she was risking a lot.

There is WAY more action in this book than there was in The Iron King and The Iron Daughter and it keeps you on edge the entire time. There is just so much packed in along with it. It’s creepy, exciting, happy, sad, suspenseful and so much more. There isn’t a dull part that makes you have to push you to keep reading. Every chapter leaves you wanted to read the next.

The Iron Fey series is one of the best series I’ve read. You feel such a connection with Meghan and I literally cried at the end because you feel all of her emotions right along with her. It’s so beautifully written with so much detail.

The ending was a shock, and left me sad and crying. But it was a perfect way to end her side of the story and I can’t wait to read Ash’s and find out what more is going to happen.

I really don’t have much to say about this cover, because I said the same thing about the last two. They fit so well and they are beautiful and that’s about it.
