Teenager Kaye is a changeling, a faery swapped with a human baby in infancy, and was raised by humans and believing she was human as well. In the first book, Tithe, she learned her true nature. As Ironside begins, Kaye receives some deceitful advice just as her boyfriend Roiben, the faery king, is about to be coronated. Having had a bit too much to drink and not thinking clearly, she mistakenly follows the advice, setting into motion an impossible quest she must now undertake. Along with Roiben, some other favorite characters from previous books also play meaningful roles in Ironside. Recommended, even if you’re no longer a teen -- I’m not. :)

This is the third book in a series that starts with Tithe, and Valiant. This third book is especially good because of how it combines ideas and charecters from the two previous books. The book uses modern ideas and adds some older legends. This book is great because of the interesting charecters and because of how well it goes with its companion novels.
