War is inevitable. But who will win and who will fall depends on what happens next...
Ravenna has returned to her people in order to save them from Davorin's impending attack. But what she did not understand is that training a society of peaceful sylphs into the warrior Stormbringers from their distant past will ask more of her than she knew. She must make amends with her sister, the new Chosen Queen. She must play games of politics and tactics. And she must prove her worth to a people that never wanted her.
Miska set out to find Ravenna and beg her to help him save his people from Davorin. Instead, he ended up in the Iron Mountains facing a legend even older than the sylphs: a dragon. But when the dragon's only offer of assistance is to help Miska train, he must learn to master himself in an unfamiliar place before he can help his people. The only problem is, the dragon is not the only legend hiding in the mountains.
Lenore has promised to wed Davorin in order to spare her people. Trapped and useless in her own Red Palace, she must discover precisely how far she'll go to uphold a promise. And, who among her people she can truly trust.
To Never Hear the Song is the continuation of The Wing Cycle, an epic fantasy that asks whether who we are determines our struggles, or if the struggles determine who we are.
Evelyn Grimald “E.G.” Stone is an independent author, editor, and linguist who has been writing, creating and causing vast amounts of trouble since a young age. When not writing, she is off musing about the workings of languages—both real and created—or reading and sewing. E.G. reads voraciously, much to the confusion of her two dogs and two cats. Weird, nerdy, perhaps a little crazy, she is having a grand old time writing, reading, editing, musing on language, and, naturally, continuing her endeavours in causing trouble.
This book was a really excellent continuation in the series. It picks up not long after book two(which you should definitely read first). The Sylphs are preparing to defend themselves, Davorin is learning to master his magic and Miska is... doing his own thing (which I won't spoil, considering how the first book ended). This book was light on action, but never felt boring or slow. It spent the book following the characters, their new allies and developing them as people. This was a great move, IMO. It helped to make them feel real, and made me care about them even more than I did. All in all, this book was the perfect sequel and now I can't wait for book three!
