This book has your traditional fae and introduces a third type created by our dreams of technology. By the end of the Iron King it still leaves alot of questions to be answered.

For all the Mortal Instruments lovers, this series seems right up your alley. Meghan is not a particularly strong female character; in fact, she was a lot like Clary in which she constantly got her poop-face on. If anyone wants to read an adventure story that is beautifully paced is Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series . I thought the world building was better than the plot development I felt like I was in a Tim Burton movie for half of the book and then I was in Wonderland for the other. I really appreciated the Shakespeare connection. I don't even want to mention the love triangle. I hate love triangles and none of the guys were swoon-worthy. Overall, this series is not really my cup of tea but Cassandra Clare fans will devour it.

its a great book...but mostly for people that are patient. this story takes a while to get tasteful...but i promise once it does, you wont be able to put it down. you'll be sad once you finish the series...i know i was but very rich indeed

It's interesting. It's extremely boring at parts and I seemed to have missed something about Puck. The book is some offspring hybrid of Twilight and Alice in wonder land. Puck and Ash are long lost brothers from twilight or something. Ash, I don't understand why my friends like him so much, and I prefer Puck because he's much more enthusiastic. Megan does scream a lot, but I think I'll get over that. I like the monarchy, and leaves me with a few questions about it. The cat reminds me so much of the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland. In the end, mildly enjoyable, cliche, but something I don't hate completely. With the Iron King, (being a rip off or Sauron) I would have said yes. Darn you Megan! He's cool, look at him, he rules a kingdom, and he's cool and will be kind to you, and do whatever you want. MARRY HIM NO N- AW... you killed him.

The whole series reminds me of the Alice in Wonderland series...and not in a good way. I love Puck though!

It's not bad, but it's not great either. I think that some parts are a bit slow, and I think the ending is too... anti-climactic. In my opinion.

It's a sweet book and all, very fun to read. However, it seems like a conglomeration of a bunch of other stories. (The author didn't make up anything new. Totally not original, yet still a fun book!) There is no deep meaning or high quality literature. But The Iron King is still worth the fun, quick read!

hmmm.... i dont understand why there are so many holds on this book. i mean, i love this book and all, but still! the iron queen and daughter is wayyyy better than this book and they have like 0 holds. you can find those two books in the turning racks and is there one copy of the iron king, the one that started it all? NO! not a single copy, not where i look. shouldnt the library staff look at how much ppl love this book and order more??

Unbelievably wonderful book. It combines grace with darkness. The brooding feeling it gives you makes you never want the edventure to end. It makes you want to live in that world, no matter how dangerous it is.
