Synopsis

War ravages Leira and the Song has fallen silent

Freed from the hold of a slave ship, Birdie, the young Songkeeper, and Ky, a street–wise thief, emerge to a world at war. Hordes of dark soldiers march across Leira, shadowed by whispers of plague and massacres, prompting Ky to return to his besieged home city in hopes of leading his fellow runners to safety.

Desperate to end the fighting, Birdie embarks on a dangerous mission into the heart of the Takhran's fortress. Legend speaks of a mythical spring buried within and the Songkeeper who will one day unleash it to achieve victory. Everyone believes Birdie is the one, but the elusive nature of the Song and rumors of other gifted individuals lead her to doubt her role. Unleashing the spring could defeat the Takhran once and for all, but can she truly be the Songkeeper when the Song no longer answers her call?

Book two of the Songkeeper Chronicles.

Someone once said that there can be no beauty without pain, or something to that effect. And, in the case of Songkeeper, it holds true. There is much beauty in this book, but there is much pain as well. The Good: -Amos continues to be pretty much my favorite character in the entire book. He's brok......more

Goodreads review by Tracey on March 31, 2019

Taking a decidedly darker turn than its prequel, Orphan’s Song, this book follows Birdie through her struggles to hold onto hope when the Song feels distant, and Ky’s misadventures as he tries to protect his Underground friends. I blame myself for taking almost a month to read this. (Thanks, college......more

Goodreads review by Claire on August 16, 2018

I didn't like this one as much as book 1, but it was still completely gripping and wonderful! The characters all grow so much in this one, and there's plenty of fast paced plot and twists to go around. I just wanted more lion riders to be honest. ;) Also more griffin! And I've come to appreciate Amo......more
