Iron Flame continues from the cliff hanger in Fourth Wing, with Violet coming to grips that her brother is in fact alive and the love of her life is leading a revolution because society has been deceived about the truth of the war they’re fighting. At times Violet feels a bit off in this book from my vantage point, much as Tris felt a bit like a whiny protagonist in the Divergent Series. Violet is constantly fawning over Xaden which felt like a bit much to me.
Overall, I enjoyed the book and jumped directly into the third installment, Onyx Storm.
