Book Report: Siren’s Song

IMG_2997

Mary Weber, you are a freaking genius.

Siren’s Song, book three in Weber’s Storm Siren Series, brings our journey to Faelen to a close. Stakes are higher as Nym and team travel to Faelen, warning those about Draewulf’s impending attack. Receiving a cryptic warning/future telling from the Cashlin ruler, Queen Laiha, Nym now has hard choices to make. With the battle looming, everything is uncertain. Who will die, and who will be left standing at the end of it all?

One of my favorite aspects of this book has almost nothing to do with the actual story (but characters do make up the story, so I suppose in a way it’s all about story). I love the interaction of Nym and Eogan. The stolen glances, the knowing looks. Not all was sunshine and roses, and there were some confusion between the two as well—such as in many real life relationships. This landed such normality of real relationships today.

Secondary characters shine in the third book. From adorable Kel to nasty Lord Myles, who crazy enough had his moments that made me hate him less and pity him just a bit—however, by the end of the book, he was one of my favorites!

If you know me at all, you know I like tragic endings. I’m not going to give the ending to Siren’s Song away, but I will say that it was perfectly tragic and the perfect happy-ever-after making every reader a happy reader.

I  received this book free from the publisher for the purpose of this review. A positive review was not required, but come on, it’s Mary Weber. . .did you expect anything else? Love her.

Spread the love

Do you have a comfort show? Someone asked this t Do you have a comfort show? 

Someone asked this the other day over on Threads and it got me thinking… what is my comfort show? 

Doctor Who def falls under the comfort show for me. Sadly I don’t actually own any of the seasons - but we have an amazing library. I needed a little comfort watch today. 

Do you watch Doctor Who? Which Doctor is your favorite? Which Villian? 

I love 10 + 11. And the Weeping Angels and the Silence are my favorite. 

What is your favorite comfort show?

I’ve been a literary agent assistant (with Mary I’ve been a literary agent assistant (with Mary DeMuth Literary) for a few years now, and I’ve read a lot (a lot) of queries. I’ve picked up a thing or two and wanted to share them here...

- Do your research: before you query an agent, make sure they are representing what you are trying to query. It wastes everyone’s time if you query hoping to change an agent’s mind on a genre (a lot of time it’s not that we don’t want to sell what you’re offering, it’s that we don’t have the contacts to do so.)

- Don’t send via your phone: I mean, I guess you could query from your phone, but you’d better make sure that email is formatted within an inch of its life, and you haven’t left anything out. Take your time and make sure you are hurriedly jumping into something (that leaves a really bad first impression — you don’t want that.) 

- Do format your email: Please, for the love of mac and cheese, do NOT send one terribly long run-together paragraph. Give me some white space. My eyes thank you

- No complaining about the standards + guidelines: Don’t complain in your query about the standards and guidelines set up by the agent you are querying. If you have a problem with them, just don’t query that agent.

Let me know if these tips were helpful! And be sure to follow along for more tips like these!
