4 Star #Review of Silverblind (Ironskin #3) by Tina Connolly

The final book in this series will jump forward 18 years and feature Dorie, Jane's young charge from Ironskin.

18 years later . . .
Dorie Rochart has been hiding her fey side for a long time. Now, finished with University, she plans to study magical creatures and plants in the wild, bringing long-forgotten cures to those in need. But when no one will hire a girl to fight basilisks, she releases her shapechanging fey powers--to disguise herself as a boy.

While hunting for wyvern eggs, she saves a young scientist who's about to get steamed by a silvertail-- and finds her childhood friend Tam Grimsby, to whom she hasn't spoken in seven years. Not since she traded him to the fey. She can't bear to tell him who she really is, but every day grows harder as he comes to trust her.

The wyverns are being hunted to extinction for the powerful compounds in their eggs. The fey are dying out as humans grow in power. Now Tam and Dorie will have to decide which side they will fight for. And if they end up on opposite sides, can their returning friendship survive?

Through out these books I have loved Jane the most. Dorie shines with her fey magic and THIS is what I wish the other two books would have had!  This one is a world wind of story, action, and magic and does a great job for the ending of this series!  Jane's stepdaughter Dorie is now 18 and done with collage. She finds her friend from book one and now they have to decide what side to fight on. 
This one ended up being a coming of age, help the magical creatures kind of book that I loved to the last page!  If you have read books 1 and 2 and loved them even a little then don't miss out on the end of the Ironskin series.
