“I feel like I just went through a rain that unexpectedly turned into a storm.”
That’s the only way I can describe finishing Iron Flame. The ending left me shattered and shocked, staring at the last page trying to process everything.
Compared to Fourth Wing, this book was on a completely different level in terms of detail and world-building. I loved how much more layered and immersive it felt. The pacing was more medium, giving just enough room for tension and emotion to unfold without ever feeling slow.
Violet, Xaden, Dain, and General Sorrengail all had their fair share of growth, but this one felt less about character development and more about the plot taking full control. And honestly? I didn’t mind it. I was utterly shocked (sometimes even comically shocked) at several moments.
If Fourth Wing was about survival, Iron Flame was pure action and chaos, with a thrilling and romantic tone that didn’t let me rest for a second.
I’d recommend it even to those who, like me, didn’t completely enjoy the first book. This sequel feels like a déjà vu of what the third ACOTAR book did for me, it recovered my faith in the series.
