Aoife Grayson must face death to win back Dean - the love who was ripped from the Iron Lands of the living when he was shot in the arctic north. But getting to the Deadlands is something that Aoife can't do on her own. And if she can find a way there, Tremaine would surely never allow it. He has sworn to keep her in the Thorn Lands, the fairie home of her mother, Nerissa. But Aoife is determined to find her way out. And she has no trouble if that means she has to kill Tremain and his queen to do it.

Is this the end?!
I first off want to say that I hope this is not the end of the Iron Codex books because I have really enjoyed reading about Aoife and her friends and the ending of the Mirrored Shard seemed more like a beginning than an end. I am a big H.P. Lovecraft fan and was excited when I found the Iron Thorn, a story that had Lovecraft themes! I really enjoy how the author uses themes such as: dreams, the universe, the old ones, and Tesla in these books and the Mirrored Shard is no exception. I found the book interesting and imaginative. The Mirrored Shard starts off where the Nightmare Garden left off, with Aoife living with her mother in the Thorn land. Aoife is determined to find a way to save Dean and is pretty desperate to do what she has to. The first part of the book moves a little slowly but once Aoife and her friend Cal start off on their journey to save Dean things move more quickly and the story becomes just as good as the others if not better. The Mirrored shard is shorter, but I feel like the story is told very well and a lot happens in the pages. The only thing I wish was touched on more was about the old ones, since I am a Lovecraft fan, that was the story component I was waiting for and it the ending really left me wanting more...but I would highly recommend this book to fans of steam punk and Lovecraft, I thought it was great!
