All his life, Moon roamed the Three Worlds, a solitary wanderer forced to hide his true nature — until he was reunited with his own kind, the Raksura, and found a new life as consort to Jade, sister queen of the Indigo Cloud court. But now a rival court has laid claim to him, and Jade may or may not be willing to fight for him. Beset by doubts, Moon must travel in the company of strangers to a distant realm where he will finally face the forgotten secrets of his past, even as an old enemy returns with a vengeance. The Fell, a vicious race of shape-shifting predators, menaces groundlings and Raksura alike. Determined to crossbreed with the Raksura for arcane purposes, they are driven by an ancient voice that cries out from...the siren depths.

Gripping and anxious installment

Geez, the emotions in this one were tough. Anger, frustration, anxiety. Of course they all come from my caring for the protagonist, Moon. I just want him to be able to relax for a turn. I don't think it'll happen...

I'll definitely finish up this series.

Review of 'The Siren Depths' on 'Goodreads'

The Siren Depths eventually gets to the point, and it's an interesting point that fills in much of the back story. However I had to slog through allot of court intrigue an she loves me she loves me not insecurities to get there.

I appreciate Wellses gender reversal of the royal consort archetype, but power games and rejection angst are not my cup of tea.

2.5 Stars.
