Description
"When the siren queens came to power over the other fae, it wasn't that they had become civilized. It was just that the wolves had learned to live with the sheep."
Born into a line of siren queens bound forever to Ardaion's ancient wellspring of power as its defenders, Serena is rejected at birth by her mother, the ruthless Queen Mab. Raised instead by her grandfather, a legendary general, Serena grows into a powerful warrior and mage, trained to command armies and courts alike.
As she comes of age, the siren in her awakens, but with no mother to guide her, she fears what she is becoming. When invaders from a dying realm threaten Ardaion, Serena steps onto the battlefield, unleashing her deadly siren powers to defend her homeland. But victory demands sacrifice -- and devastating loss transforms her into something fiercer, more determined, more dangerous.
Bound by blood, magic, and duty, Serena must become the leader she was born to be -- even if it means confronting the shadows of her birthright, the ambitions of those who betrayed her, and the brutal legacy of the queens who came before.
