Meghan Chase succeeded in saving her brother, but thats not the end of her story. Now, to fulfill the bargain she made with the Winter Prince, Ash, Meghan is a prisoner to the Winter Court, where a half summer fey princess is not safe. Chaos erupts when the scepter of the seasons is stolen, and war is on the brink of outbreak. The Ice Prince she thought loved her has deserted her, and Meghan is left alone, without her fey powers, to find the truth before its too late.

I love this book! It's not often I love a book 2 in a series as much as I love book 1, but Julie Kagawa manages to do just that with The Iron Daughter! The Iron Daughter continues to hold this magical feel to it as you read. It is filled with everything you need: action, an intriguing plot, and iron fey who might kill you. Like I said, perfect! I read this book in one sitting, glued to the pages. The books really have an addictive quality that makes you crave more!

I just love the world Kagawa has created with The Iron Fey. It just captivates you right away, and pulls you right in beside the characters. This brings us to the plot, which I continue to be awed by. I just love the idea behind it. I mean, fey plus throw in a twist with all the technology we have in the world? What is NOT to love?!?

My single complaint about the book has to deal with Meghan, the main character. I kept waiting for her to pick up a sword and fight, but instead she lets others do the fighting. Meghan, to me, always comes across as fairy smart, so to me it would just be second nature for her to join in the fight, instead of standing by.

Kagawa really plays with your emotions with The Iron Daughter. Parts of the book you've never been happier, others you want to cry, others you're just angry, you get the idea. The characters are absolutely wonderful. The Iron Daughter introduces you to a variety of new characters, and I've come to love them all alongside all the old characters. Ash is my absolutely favorite character of the book, and I am still 100% on Team Ash!

The ending is really what did it for me. I was loving the book, but when I got towards the end it threw me over the deep end! It was just perfect. If you werent already flipping the pages at some insane speed already, the last chunk will send you reading at some crazy speed!

I am now pining away for the final installment in the series, The Iron Queen. I will be going through withdrawal until then. Three little words basically sum up my feelings for The Iron Daughter: It is amazing!
