Synopsis

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.


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










Review

The story started impressively. A beautiful mysterious young girl, stands on the auction block for her fifteenth sell. Because of her super abilities, she is born a slave. Her newest master expects more from her. Passed from one master to another, Nym was never properly trained.


In the course of five weeks, Nym learns she is to be used for political purposes. But first, she must get a handle on her abilities. She was always used for destruction, she learns for the first time how to help and save those around her.


The book started off slowly. It gradually builds when the plot thickens. It takes a while to grasp who is on who's side. There is a major twist that leads to the opening of book 2.
