beasts? Will she be able to get back to
her world or has she seen her family for the last time? Read this sequel
to find out more about this intense fantasy world and learn what happens when
evil is unleashed and hope is running out!
Wrath
of Siren by Kurt Chambers begins right where Truth
Teller left off. Charlotte continues to be a strong and
inquisitive character who's braver than she knows. She seemed stronger in this book, and I liked that she resigned herself to what the other
world entailed. Elderfield is such a good friend, and I was happy they were
reunited, even if it was under dangerous circumstances. This series is perfect for kids who are interested in the Lord of the Rings or other high
fantasy stories. I would recommend this book for kids in fourth grade and
up. This was an action-packed adventure, and with a war going on there were
some scenes with violence. These were handled with enough details that you
could picture what was happening, but they weren't gruesome or overly
descriptive. Readers will be on the edge of their seats turning the pages.
The storyline wraps up, but I'm hoping for more books in the series, because I hate to leave characters I've grown attached
to!
Has anyone else read Wrath of Siren? Have you read another book by Kurt
Chambers? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
Happy Reading!
