Action-packed fantasy adventure with a powerhouse female epic warrior in the spirit of Achilles or Beowulf.
Years are only one way to age in this tale of a young warrior whose army-slaying sword belies her kind heart.
One of the greatest fighters in the world, nearly indestructible Rose lets few things strike fear into her—but magic is one of them. Nonetheless, she seeks out the magical dangers left by the ancients alongside warrior partner Finn and curious scholar Derrick in order to protect others from them. Their mission is complicated by Rose and Finn's budding romance, as her choice of lifestyle conflicts with his expectations for the woman he loves. But when their quest pits against such titanic foes as a prince able to slay a thousand men in a day and a draconic archmage, will Rose be forced to embrace the very magic she fears?
A full length novel. Second in the Iron Flower series, but you do not need to have read the first to enjoy this one - either is a fine starting point to the adventures of Rose.
Iron Flower Legend of the Iron Flower Book 2 eBook Billy Wong
Billy Wong’s epic “Iron Flower: Legend of the Iron Flower Book Two” is my second foray into the complicated and bloody world of Rose Agen, a warrior woman of Legendary skill and talent. When we first discover Rose she is a teenager, anxious to make her way and her life, though events conspire and her strange and blessed talents with a sword are put to the test.Fast forward to this novel and we open to find Rose, battle worn and weary, bloodied by yet another skirmish, this one leaving all of her companions slain at the hands of bandits imbued with what appears to be a curse – or magic. This sets off a book filled with adventure, bloodshed, growth, wisdom and an odd romance that touched on innocence and hinted at a sweetness that is sorely lacking in Rose’s otherwise steel infused life.
Rose is a warrior Queen the likes of which many men would aspire to, a gender bender Beowulf that proves that a woman can be the action hero novels crave – without the overt sexuality and skin society expects of the ‘gentler’ sex. Strong, passionate and goddess touched, Rose channels fictional characters like Xena and real-life inspirations such as Queen Boudica of the Celtic Iceni.
A great standalone novel, even though it is the second in a series. Rich, fast paced and action filled, this is a novel sure to please fans of adventure, epic tales, classic tales, Viking like lore, female leads and those who love fantasy and magical novels.

Iron Flower Legend of the Iron Flower Book 2 eBook Billy Wong Reviews
3.5/5 stars
Iron Flower is the second book that follows Rose Agen in her battles and adventures. This time she works together with Finn and Derrick to collect and stop cursed artifacts and evil magic, while facing battles of invading forces. I've read the first book Iron Bloom, but I think a person could jump right into this one without much trouble--although if you are thinking about reading both stories, you should obviously read the first one first. This story picks up about 2 years after the last, with a flashback to a scene in the first book during the prologue.
Characters
The story is written in third person mostly following Rose, Derrick, and Finn. Rose is still the warrior and joins up with Finn and scholar, Derrick, to rid artifacts that may be cursed to avoid any inhuman possession like Rose has met with prior. Rose is still the strong woman she was in the first book and also still concerned about the welfare of the people and those she loves. As the story of Rose progresses from the first book to the end of this book, it's hard to imagine Rose ever dying. The battles that are fought in this book are still perilous towards Rose and her friends, but the reader is kind of used to her not dying from "mortal wounds."
Plot
The plot moved along well. There is action and adventure similar to the first. This time there is more magic and dangers involved. Should old magic be brought back into the world? How do they stop the evil possessions/creatures that are a result of the magic? What are the invading forces looking for-magic? The book obviously leaves room for another installment. I wonder how there will be a new element to the story. I feel that to make the story develop there needs to be something that Rose must face that she can't use her physical strength and weird healing assets on. The battling outcomes are more predictable - even the ending battle was not described. Hence, something new will need to be added to keep the story going, in my opinion.
The Bottom Line
Overall, it was a nice quick read. If you like strong female characters and fantasy/adventure, you should try this book.
A good sequel to the previous book with an MC who continues to be likeable. Engaging writing, I got this with the prequel and finished both within a few days.
Part Tarzan, part Conan this is fun reading at its best. Well written about the almost indestructible "Iron Rose" great reading for a rainy day or anytime else when you simply want to escape.
The further adventures of Rose Agen, powerhouse female warrior. There's more magic in this book than in the first, as Rose, her lover Finn, and their scholar friend Derrick find themselves involved in the return of magic to the world. It reads more like three installments of a serial rather than a continuous novel. But it's lots of fun and the fights and the newly-rediscovered magic are exciting.
I'm glad I picked this book up. Rose (the female warrior in the book) is a very likeable heroine who knows how to wield a sword but who is also 'just a girl' when she falls in love with Finn (her partner in battle). Set in a Nordic medieval world, this story is very convincing in that it shows you what life would have been like in those days without being weighed down with too many historical tidbits. Rose may be one of the best fighters in her lifetime, but she is not boring or too serious, she is rather laid-back and quite funny at times. Finn is reluctant to give her his heart at first because he expects his future wife to be more, well, feminine, so this makes for some good tension between the characters ) If you like action, magic, and a bit of romance, this one is for you!
I love the legends of Rose because she is courageous. Have you ever imagined what it would be like to be a women living in times of extreme danger? Somewhere along the line, I know deep inside me that one of my ancestors must have been like Rose. I got so swept away with the story that I wanted to be just like her. This book garbed me from the beginning and kept me enthralled till the very end. I am new to Billy Wong's books but now I am hooked! I started in the middle and decided to go back to Book 1, where it all started. His books are the ones that I will come back to over and over again.
