“Anastasia” meets “Treasure Planet” in this action-packed YA sci-fi by Ashley Poston!
This is my second time reading “Heart of Iron” (my first time on audiobook) and I was just as engaged and excited as I was in 2021 when I read it the first time. Poston blended elects from two animated classics into a new story that will interest any science fiction fan.
All of the characters are are so vibrant and fun, with layers of backstory that slowly reveals over the course of the story. They fit perfectly in the beautiful world Poston created as well, which has nods to the world building in the “Star Wars” franchise.
