I was patiently waiting for this book to release and I was not prepared to read everything that happens. That ending was not what I was expecting and I loved everything in Iron Flame.

Fourth Wing was a great read but for me, Iron Flame was even better. We get more world building and new characters. Violet grows more into her power and who she’s meant to be. And Xaden, he is right there through it all. We also get to know Xaden better and most to all the secrets are revealed. 

This spice between Violet and Xaden is everything you want for them. It’s about the same amount of spice you get in Fourth Wing and for that I’ll rate it a 3. It is detailed and there is intention between Vi and Xaden. 

Overall, I really did enjoy reading Iron Flame and I can’t wait until the next book comes out.
