About this listen

Enter a fantastical world of dangerous faeries, wicked princes and one half-human girl who discovers her entire life is a lie. This special edition of The Iron King includes the bonus novella “Winter’s Passage.”

MY NAME IS MEGHAN CHASE.

In less than twenty-four hours, I’ll be sixteen. Countless stories, songs and poems have been written about this wonderful age, when a girl finds true love and the stars shine for her and the handsome prince carries her off into the sunset.

I DON’T THINK IT WILL BE THAT WAY FOR ME.

Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan Chase’s life, ever since her father disappeared when she was six. Ten years later, when her little brother also goes missing, Meghan learns the truth—she is the secret daughter of a mythical faery king and a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she’ll go to save someone she loves, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face…and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart.

I asked ChatGPT to recommend me audiobooks based off my favourites- I’m a little confused how my adult books got this, I think it’s just because the narrator is the same as demigods of San Francisco

I’m also a little confused about how no one seems to be mentioning that the girl who just turned 16 that day, has two love interests and they are both like, ancient? As well as a king wanting her who is also presumably old af. Like, I’m uncomfy. I kept waiting for something to like “make it right” like actually she was much older but didn’t remember or something… but no, she really is just a minor

Although I did find the idea of the iron faeries clever and liked the little nods to Alice in wonderland, it was a bit boring and dragging, whilst simultaneously not explaining certain things enough.

But again me personally, I was just really bothered by the age stuff and maybe if i hadn’t been so fixated that i might have liked it, I’m not sure.but I have learnt my lesson about getting book recommendations from AI because I was listening to this at 2.5 just to get it over with

She’s a child being pursued by old fae men?
