Synopsis
Julia’s
world was turned upside down last year. She had to abandoned her life at New
York… well we could say she had to leave her life on earth as we know it to
save her life. As a result she found out her father had kept a dimension full
of secrets all her life.
Now
after surviving some quality time with her mother, Julia is ready for another
school year at her other dimension boarding school. What she doesn’t expect is
that her appearance starts to change in drastic ways, her shifting abilities decrease
and the fact that she is cursed force her to leave school and go to Serenity.
Review
Heather
found a way to twist the story into a way that I hadn’t expected. When I read
the title I was super excited, what could a shapeshifter have to do with a
siren? How would Caleb and Terrence fit into this story? What more does Ossai
have to offer?
It was
nice to see the characters and the story that made this book memorable to me,
to walk in Heather Ostler’s New York, Ossai and Lockham Castle.
The
direction this story took was really unexpected; it gave me another sense of
Ossai and all we haven’t discovered, not only in all the land we still don’t
know but all the problems and races that live in it.
This
book gets three broken TV’s because even though I enjoyed the story, there were
some setbacks the most important one was that I was expecting a bigger growth
from the author on this second installment of the Shapeshifter’s Secret. The
second thing, and this may just be me guys, is that at some points of the
conversation it felt robotic, like the character was just retelling what had
just happened or responding in a way totally expected.
I hope
you give The Siren’s Secret a try and make the decision for yourself.
