Siren Dreams

The Rise of Ares

By: Miss Jade Frances

Narrated by: Michelle Shure

You can’t escape reality, when your enemies haunt your dreams.

All her life, Evangeline dreamed of finding her purpose. Now that she has, she is certain that she doesn’t want to fulfil it. Especially not when it could tip the scales in the war, that’s brewing between The Gifted.

Evangeline must travel to the Fae communities to convince them that, although there is darkness within her, she is on the side of light. Tensions rise, trust is betrayed, and those closest to her might not have her best interests at heart. The very darkness that she wields seeps its way into her dreams throughout her travels. This time, someone new enters them. Someone that seems to be trying to communicate with her. Is it a warning of danger to come, or simply an unending memory of her failure to rid the world of The Veils leader?

Book 2 met all expectations - totally captivating

Book 2 of the Rise of Ares Series 'Siren Dreams' continues seamlessly from Book 1, 'Siren Calls'. I hardly blinked and book 2 was completed, barely noticing the substantial 6 hours and 50 minute length. It takes a talented author and narrator partnership to make every chapter of a book fly without any lags or loss of focus for the listener. There is a great flow and pace with adventure on every page turn.

So much happened in Book 2 - We the listeners go to know so many of the characters deeply and we watch Evangeline struggle and overcome with 100% determination and grit. Each of the side plots is relevant, fun and totally engaging. Questions are resolved and new questions raised, setting the scene perfectly for Book 3 and the finale of the group's quest to save the world and also forge fulfilling lives for themselves.

Friendships and partner bonds are teased, tested and ultimately strengthened in Book 2. Every character was a captivating and essential addition and each one would be worthy of their own book (hint hint Jade Frances). Of note, I am 100% Team Adam and I would love to read more of his backstory, the nuances of pack life (as uniquely reimagined in this series) and the twisted path Adam's young life took.

With my knowledge of the characters and world exponentially increased by Book 2, I move with anticipation to Book 3 and the series finale.

This was way better than the first

The first book almost put me off on trying this one, but I'm glad I did listen to it. It was more detailed, and it keeps you interested from beginning to end. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new read, or in this case. listen lol

GOOD STORY LINE.

WELL WRITTEN STORY LINE THAT'S EASY TO FOLLOW. ACCEPTABLE FOR TEEN AND OLDER.
NARRATOR IS GOOD AND EASY TO FOLLOW

This is a must get

I loved this. I actually felt like I was there with the characters. Jade Frances does a wonderful job building the world and the characters. The narrator brings them to life. I believe that this is a must read. I can't wait to read more.

An interesting story

I enjoyed this story but being book 2, I was a little confused at first since I have not read The first one. However it was a classic case of good vs evil. Poor Evangeline was trying to understand her purpose & her superior wasn't exactly helpful. Her friends helped her as much as possible. I think that some couldn’t get past her dark powers that she posses. Many great characters & challenging foes. A great read.
