A review by brendalovesbooks
The Iron King by Julie Kagawa
4.0
Reading the description of this one, I really thought it would be the typical "girl finds out she's supernatural and/or meets someone who is supernatural, they fall in love, but the love is doomed." And while there is some love here, that's really not the focus of the book, and for that I'm glad.
Meghan is a strong character who is not afraid to do hard things for the people she cares about. There were really only a small handful of main characters in this quest-like story, but I liked them all. Although there are a lot of the typical fairy story elements here, there is also a lot that is original and new.
I would recommend this one to fans of YA fantasy, and to those who like strong female leads.
