He has a dream at the beginning of the book but he is not certain if it is true or no. That's where the action all begins. He meets many characters on the way of his journey and learns many things.

Geruda an eagle with alot of attitude is one of his companions who is lacking self confidence to himself. This iron ring is bound around tamar's finger which confuses him about the dream.

Rating: Summary: Super!!!!!! Review: The Iron ring is an incredible book about a young king named Tamar is challenged to a game of aksha, a game of dice. Tamar and this mysterious man gamble and gamble until, Tamar and this man gamble for their most prized possesion: their lives. I dont want to tell you what happens, because if i did you would have to read the book and i want your curiosity to itch ferociously like Adi-Kavi's, this book, on a scale from 1-10, zooms up to 20. The book is filled wit action, comedy, tragedy, and Ancient Indian vocab, on a interesting setting. im surprised its not a #1 bestseller
Rating: Summary: A Great Great Book Review: The Iron Ring By Lloyd Alexander The Iron Ring is one of the best books I have ever read. It is about the young king of Sundari palace named Tamar. His journey is to find a king that won control of Tamar's life. So he had to find him and be his slave for as long as the other king wants him to. He meets many new people on his journey and they become good friends. In my opinion this book was great and nicely written. I liked the plot of the of the story and I liked the fact that it was a fantasy book, which is one of my favorite types of books. I would recommend this book if you like fantasy books and adventure books.

Rating: Summary: This book was excellent!! Review: This book centers around young king Tamar of Sunduri. When Tamar is visited by the evil king Jaya, his life is turned upside down.Tamar loses a high stakes dice game when betting the ultimate price; his life. A mysterious iron ring appears on Tamars finger signifying that his kingdom, riches and even his life are no longer his. Tamar sets off on a long journey along side his trusted adviser Rajaswami, to find king Jaya. This book is filled with adventure, magic, romance and often trouble. I recomend this book to anyone who is willing to do a little research while reading. I found this book fasinating and really fun because it draws the reader in, mqakind it hard to put down. All in all I thought that The Iron Ring was a really good read.
Rating: Summary: The Iron Ring Review: This book is great I am 11 years old I loved. Lloyd, I read Time cat, The book of Three and The Iron Ring out of them all this was the second best and then 1st was The Book of Three. The book is about Tamar who thinks a gambling game was a dream but he still has an Iron Ring on his finger so on his journey to find out the answer he meets the love of his life and life long friends.
Rating: Summary: One of my favorites! Review: This book is great. You'll love it to if you enjoy books about magical lands filled with sorcerors and animals that talk, with just a touch of romance.
Rating: Summary: This book was great!!! I loved the world I was in! Review: This book is indeed a Lloyd Alexander book! I was in love with it! But, I give this book only 4 stars being it was not his greatest. His greatest put me to tears. It made me so happy and it will remain in my heart forever! That of course is his fabulous and certainly unforgettable series, the Prydain chronicles!!! the IRON RING is definitely a must read, just like every other book he's made! Also, if you like Lloyd Alexander or you are interested in his best: Read the entire series of the Prydain Chronicles starting with The Book of Three and on to the end with The High King. Also there is the Arkadians!!! But, for your sake, skip the Westmark Trilogy. EWWW, not a good book. Boring and not fantasy.
Rating: Summary: Book Review - The Iron Ring Review: This book is wonderful. The enchanting story of a young king, bound by honor and on a quest, will have you riveted to your seat. If Tamar can complete his journey, he will regain his kingdom. If he does not, he will lose everything. Can he make it without becoming forever disgraced? Only those who read it will know. With its mystical storyline and endearing, interesting characters, this book is one of Alexander's best works.
Rating: Summary: India meets fantasy meets Lloyd Alexander- What A Book!! Review: This book is, like all of Alexander's books, excellent. Authentic India-like lands of fantasy where dharma, or honor, is everything and a traveling prince finds his true love in a headstrong cow maid. I love it! It has a such a nicely tied-up happy ending too. Even Jaya, the bad guy, who, by the end, you're not sure is even bad, lives happily ever after. Prydain geared up for the nineties- with monkeys instead of that miraculous pig.
