The Iron King (Iron Fey Series #1)

The Iron King (Iron Fey Series #1) - Must get the massive rant of my chest first. It's Tír na nÓg. Now I know that the accents on the vowels are pretty much over the head of most folks but the word means land of the young. Tír is land, na means of, and the Óg means young, the n is a part of grammar to make the pronounciation of two vowels together easier (it's called an urú or in English Eclipsis - see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eclipsis ). By the way the accent is known as a fada in Irish trans as a long, (it's technically a síneadh fada or a long mark) simply put it means pronounce the vowel as a longer version of that letter. Thankfully in Irish there is only one. Deep Breath. The book. Meghan is living a life of poverty, trying to keep under the radar and not be noticed or bullied too much. She remembers her father disappearing, but her life is otherwise pretty normal. Suddenly she starts noticing someone is watching her, and her life changes for ever. Her brother is kidnapped and she finds that he's been taken to faery, she follows with her best friend Robbie Goodfell (yup she finds out later that he's Robin Goodfellow or Puck) to rescue him and finds that she's the King of Faery's daughter and her life is never going to be the same again. It's not a bad read, there were occasions when things began to lag a bit but I expect there will be later payoffs. And what was that memory she lost?
