I first picked up this book when I saw the beautiful cover and heard that it won the Christy Award a few years ago. I appreciated the unique setting of Faelen. It was a combination of historical, fantasy, and steampunk. I have not read a book quite like this, and that made it very enjoyable. Nym had a fierce temper (literally) that whipped up storms. She was also very likable due to the fact that her emotions after certain events seemed real. There is a content warning for those who dislike reading a book with violence. I would recommend having book two near you because I could not put the series down. (

I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review.

Storm's Siren is a wonderful fantasy novel about turning your curses into gifts, and finding perfection in imperfection. Nym has had fifteen slave owners in her short sixteen years. She's moved from home to home since her anger caused the fire that killed her parents. Now, her new owner, a rather strange woman, insists that Nym can be trained to control her storms and thereby be a pivotal weapon in the war between kingdoms.

Nym, on the other hand, sees it as a curse and struggles with the guilt of the pain she has caused. I loved the relationship between Breck, Colin, and Nym. They became fast friends right from the start. The budding romance between Eogan and Nym took my breath away. I loved watching it grow and the world that Mary Weber has created is absolutely amazing, she has written a fantastic novel. The story does leave us hanging and I absolutely cannot wait to read the next book in the series. (

I picked it up because the cover reminded me a bit of [b:Throne of Glass|7896527|Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1)|Sarah J. Maas|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1335819760s/7896527.jpg|11138426], and I think, for the right reader, this could work as a read alike. Sort of. It's not as well written or plotted, but there's lots of magic, romance, and political intrigue. I liked the flesh eating horses. But overall it left me feeling extra meh. I gave up about halfway through, but I'll be able to recommend it to kids in the future.

this one i liked the more i read, but it took a l o n g time for me to really get into it, though that may have been because i didn't dig the audiobook. i wasn't planning at reading the other books at all but the last page....maybe (

The editing was fine. I wasn’t crazy about the first person present tense. But it wasn’t even that that made me give it up at 48%. I was just so BORED! And, didn’t care what happened. At all. To any of them.

"Fourteen circles for fourteen owners." I shade my eyes to block the sun's reflection off the distant mountains currently doused in snow and smoke and flesh-eating birds.

The award-winning novel that started it all.

"A riveting tale from start to finish. Between the simmering romance, the rich and inventive fantasy world, and one seriously jaw-dropping finale, readers will clamor for the next book�??and I'll be at the front of the line!" �??Marissa Meyer, New York Times bestselling author of the Lunar Chronicles

In a world at war, a slave girl's lethal curse could become one kingdom's weapon of salvation. If the curse�??and the girl�??can be controlled.

"I raise my chin as the buyers stare. Yes. Look. You don't want me. Because, eventually, accidentally, I will destroy you."

As a slave in the war-weary kingdom of Faelen, seventeen-year-old Nym isn't merely devoid of rights, her Elemental kind are only born male and always killed at birth�??meaning, she shouldn't even exist.

Standing on the auction block beneath smoke-drenched mountains, Nym faces her fifteenth sell. But when her hood is removed and her storm-summoning killing curse revealed, Nym is snatched up by a court advisor and given a choice: be trained as the weapon Faelen needs to win the war or be killed.

Choosing the former, Nym is unleashed into a world of politics, bizarre parties, and rumors of an evil more sinister than she's being prepared to fight . . . not to mention the trainer whose dark secrets lie behind a mysterious ability to calm every lightning strike she summons.

But what if she doesn't want to be the weapon they've all been waiting for? Set in a beautifully eclectic world of suspicion, super abilities, and monsters, Storm Siren is a story of power. And whoever controls that power will win.
