She is paired with the strongest pilot of all, Shimin, a boy who murdered his family and is treated like a prisoner. After killing the murder, the strategists don’t know what to do with their new Iron Widow, a girl who can use boys to pilot rather than vice versa. But she also has love in her heart, and a miraculous softer side given the world she has grown up in. Zetian takes no prisoners, she is fierce, she speaks her mind, she is cold and calculating. She offers herself up as a concubine pilot in a world that values men, with the aim of killing the pilot that killed her sister. Iron Widow follows Zetian, a girl who’s strong character immediately flies off the page and carries this book through its opening chapters. Please read this when it releases in September, you will not be disappointed. I am blown away by how fantastic every element of this book is – it is a masterful use of first person present tense, which I usually strongly dislike, the characters are just perfect and the story is a complete banger. Is Zetian one of my favourite protagonists of all time? Yes!!! But not only that, Iron Widow has a fast-paced, gripping plot that held my attention from start to finish in one of the strongest ways. Hello and welcome to this review of one of my favourite 2021 releases.
