THE WARRIOR MAIDEN by Melanie Dickerson is an inspired young adult retelling of the classic Mulan tale but with a historical twist—the story is set in fifteenth-century Lithuania, its pages are filled with castles, Teutonic Knights, and sieges. Danger, warring knights, battles and secret identities make for a fast read.

When I first discovered Mary Weber's writing with her debut novel Storm Siren, I knew I was in for something special. This series has grown in a beautiful and spectacular way, as Nym has! 

What continues to impress me about this series is Nym's wonderful character and Mary Weber's thoughtful writing. Siren's Fury is the second book in the Storm Siren Trilogy and a book I've been highly anticipating. There's plenty of dangers, action and magic of course in the story to keep fans happy, but what I loved the most was how much Nym grew, and continues to grow as a character. A heroine who is learning her strengths while working past her vulnerabilities. Once again, we are taken on a ride into the Elemental world as Nym, Eogan and Rasha fight a future that still threaten Faelen. 

The Storm Siren by Mary Weber is the first in a new young adult trilogy featuring a young heroine who is an Elemental and one that should not exist.
