In a world at war, one girl's lethal curse could become one kingdom's weapon of salvation. If the curse--and the girl--can be controlled. Featuring simmering romance, [a] rich and inventive fantasy world, and one seriously jaw-dropping finale, (New York Times bestselling author Marissa Meyer), Storm Siren is the first in a fast-paced, clean YA romantasy trilogy.
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.
Perfect for fans of Shadow and Bone and Throne of Glass, Storm Siren is a sweeping tale of power, pain, and purpose that will captivate fans of elemental magic and slow-burn tension. Full of lush world-building, emotional twists, and characters you'll root for (and swoon over), this is fantasy at its most heart-thumping and soul-searching.
Storm Siren is 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 Cinder and the Lunar Chronicles
Intense and intriguing. Fans of high stakes fantasy won't be able to put it down. --C. J. Redwine, author of DEFIANCE
A riveting read! Mary Weber's rich world and heartbreaking heroine had me from page one. You're going to fall in love with this love story. --Josephine Angelini, internationally best-selling author of the Starcrossed trilogy
