may be saved
at the end, though some strings remain to be tied up or further
tangled in
upcoming sequels. . . . A grand yarn told with a wink and kitted
out with high stakes and broadly drawn characters for maximum
fun.”
—Kirkus
“Colfer’s trademark wit and adventurous plotting are in
abundance. . . .
This is a very fun read.”

Praise for EOIN COLFER’S
IRON MAN: THE GAUNTLET
“With no time to assemble the Avengers, Iron Man must save the
world solo in this fast-paced adventure novel. . . . Colfer deftly
weaves together all of the crucial elements of an entertaining
superhero story: dastardly villains, a feisty sidekick, a duel to the
death, and a hero worth cheering for. This novel is
tailor-made for Marvel enthusiasts and is peppered with in-jokes
about
everything from Dr. Strange’s finger-waving tendency to Captain
America’s excessive patriotic fervor. Best of all, the author
successfully captures the
vulnerability and infuriatingly seductive arrogance of Stark, who
polices
the world to atone for his father’s sins. Ideal for readers who are
breathlessly awaiting the next film in the Marvel superhero
franchise.”
—Kirkus
“As a teenager, Tony Stark watched as his father turned his own
peaceful
invention into a weapon, forever changing the direction of Tony’s
life. Now, as Iron Man, he embarks on an adventure in Ireland,
where he attempts to
where he attempts to
interrupt an attack on an ecology conference. . . . Colfer, author of
the
popular Artemis Fowl series, has created a high-octane Iron Man
adventure sure to be a hit with superhero fanatics.”
