“Ironside” features the return of the faerie changeling Kaye from “Tithe,” this time with an impossible quest to prove her love to the new Unseelie King, Roiben.
Although I read “Tithe” in high school and loved it (it’s the first teen books I remember reading), I never read “Ironside” because I thought I knew how the quest was going to end. I was right, in a way, but I’m glad to have read it anyway.
