Publisher Description
Enter a fantastical world of dangerous faeries, wicked princes and one half-human girl who discovers her entire life is a lie. This special edition of The Iron King includes the bonus novella “Winter’s Passage.”
MY NAME IS MEGHAN CHASE.
In less than twenty-four hours, I’ll be sixteen. Countless stories, songs and poems have been written about this wonderful age, when a girl finds true love and the stars shine for her and the handsome prince carries her off into the sunset.
I DON’T THINK IT WILL BE THAT WAY FOR ME.
Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan Chase’s life, ever since her father disappeared when she was six. Ten years later, when her little brother also goes missing, Meghan learns the truth—she is the secret daughter of a mythical faery king and a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she’ll go to save someone she loves, 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.

"I don't read allot fantasy books so I was uncertain if I would like it. I was pleasantly surprised. It has a budding romance running thru the later half of it. So I am anxious to read the next one to see what happens to the budding romance between two people that should be enemies."

— Sherri, 11/13/2013 -
" I really liked this book it was interesting and it keeps you reading. I loved the adventure and I didn't think it would end the way it did. I cant wait to read the other books and I now see why everyone loves this book. :$ "

" The language in this book! I stopped adding for fear of what else wild come. I am not used to having the f word in a teen book. Wow. "
— Kim, 7/13/2013 -
" Thought it was slow and had no real point. Mostly based on Alice in Wonderland, Mid Summer Nights Dream and Peter pan. "
— Ella, 6/27/2013 -
" This book was mostly good, but I felt myself wanting to slap Meghan several times. She just doesn't use her brain enough. She jumps into things without thinking and she apparently can't interact with Ash without practically swooning. Get a grip, girl. "
— Sasha, 5/20/2013 -
" I would actually give this book 3.5 stars. I really enjoyed the characters, but I thought some of the descriptions were a bit long and the book dragged a bit. Still, I am looking forward to seeing what happens in the next books. "
— Roxanne, 8/22/2012 -

" Imaginative story, at times the writing is repetitive. "
— Annie, 11/3/2011 -
" This is by far the best book I have read in years. I fell in love with it the moment I saw the cover. This series is beautiful. Kagawa writes in a way that makes you feel as if you know the characters and can see everything taking place. I simply couldn't put this book down. "
— Ally, 7/15/2011 -

— Rachel, 5/18/2011 -
" I was hoping for Tam Lin, but it was an enjoyable enough start to a series or trilogy or what have you. "
— Sarah, 5/17/2011 -
" A more PG version of Glimmerglass. Same faerie-walker idea of a girl half mortal and half fey with a destiny to save the world. But why is the character always the daughter of a powerful fey king or aristocrat? "
— Vicky, 5/16/2011 -
" The story is so lame and boring and I really hate the main character. "
— Evangeline, 5/14/2011 -
