The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa
4.0

I was apprehensive going into this book since it was told from Ash's point-of-view and it was set up as his own personal quest in order to be with the love of his life, Meghan, who is now the Iron Queen. Fortunately, I found Ash to be a fascinating character. I liked delving into his psyche and his past. Some of his past actions were far from honorable, but I still found him to be a sympathetic figure and a victim of circumstances.

I also liked Ash's camaraderie with Puck, Grimalkin, and the Big Bad World; they provided the usual snark and humor in contrast to Ash's brooding self. We also got to know more about Ariella, although that whole situation with her was a bit strange; I still can't reconcile the fact that
Spoilershe somehow came back to life
.

Overall, this was a fun read full of action, adventure, introspection, heartbreak, and of course a good dose of romance. Having a male POV is a refreshing change, as well. I highly recommend this book, in fact the whole series.
