Immersing myself into this latest Iron Fey chapter is like welcoming back old friends that you haven't seen in awhile. Meghan and Ash have survived the odds and are finally married and happy in the Iron Realm. On route to the Winter Court for Elysium, the celebrations are stalled by the appearance of the oracle in Mab's palace who stirs up trouble by revealing that Meghan's child could be the end of all their kingdoms and that the Iron Queen has a choice to make. All the gang are back together, the wily furball Grimalkin and with Puck her childhood friend they set off to find the Oracle. They must journey through the Wyldwood to the Wishing Tree and then find the Dreaming Pool. Sounds easy enough but in the Wyldwood, nothing is as it seems and you need to be very careful what you wish for. Although the storyline is not surprising, I enjoyed catching up with the gang and hope that down the track Puck will enlighten us on his travels now that Meghan and her prince have gotten their happily ever after.Favourite quote by Puck - "So it's the ever popular first-born child of doom prophecy, huh, ice boy? How  very cliché. Why can't it ever be the third nephew twice removed who is fated to destroy the world?"
