Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

Nahri has never believed in magic. Certainly, she has power; on the streets of 18th-century Cairo, she’s a con woman of unsurpassed talent. But she knows better than anyone that the trades she uses to get by - palm readings, zars, and a mysterious gift for healing - are all tricks, both the means to the delightful end of swindling Ottoman nobles and a reliable way to survive. But when Nahri accidentally summons Dara, an equally sly, darkly mysterious djinn warrior, to her side during one of her cons, she’s forced to reconsider her beliefs.

Fun YA Read
Overall I'd give this book 3.5 stars. It's fun and gripping, definitely a good read. It only loses a few stars from me because I wasn't a huge fan of Mal.

Meh
Not a fan of Alina here. She’s way too obsessed with Mal and loses herself in him. Mal is also like… a narcissist? I wish Alina actually came into her own here instead of allowing herself to be defined by Mal or as a counter to the Darkling.

An okay story progression.
I say this without the opportunity to have yet read the next, but this is my fourth book by this author and she is a phenomenal storyteller. I can only imagine the next won't disappoint.

I was disappointed with Siege & Storm
After reading the first part -Shadow & Bone, I was very excited for the next book, but the character of Alina, seems to lost all her confidence, poise, she seems to be now this weak girl, who doesn’t know her own mind. I would have rather seen her loving and still fighting the Darkling and not jumping from one guy to another.

Its alright-ish. Warning! Minor spoilers in my review.
The performance from Lauren Fortgang is always a pleasure! Especially during emotional vulnerable moments for the guy characters, she somehow makes them extra human. Tho the priest voice is a tad weird lol.
The story itself is weird?? Mal is just hella dumb and so is Alena. They have no communication skills whatsoever so it was frustrating to listen to them "talk". Darkling also coulda been better but he's never properly flushed out as a character, which is sad. They could've utilized that special connection so much more. Ultimately didnt care about the drama that they had. Alena was as bland as a cardboart lmao.
But oh! Nikolai! He was really fun and can be compelling at times too. o3o Leigh Bardugo just needs to flesh him out even more and he golden lol. But idk if she does in the following books lmao. Hope she does. Fingers crossed! lol

I didn't like the storyline much. There was definitely not that much of a progression with the plot as much as I would have hoped for but i will continue the series nonetheless. I do want to see what becomes of the sun summoner.

A Straight-up Placeholder
This is clearly the 2nd novel in a trilogy. It attempts to repeat the best aspects of the first book and blatantly sets up the third book. Leigh Bardugo adds some new characters and builds on her Grisha Magic System (explaining theory and adding more 'Amplifiers', for example), but spends an inordinate amount of effort on character development. It's not a bad plan.. but falls short. The author goes overboard on the YA Fantasy clichés: revelling in the misunderstood teenaged heroes (merely revealing them as self-absorbed petulants) and building on relatable romantic urges (but contriving a nonsensical love triangle). The pacing is off in this one, too - the middle half of the novel is plodding - and the desperate "I would die for you" young hero clichés are cringeworthy. Bardugo knows how to write - and there are flashes of brilliant timing (and dialogue) - so this poor effort is regrettable.
Lauren Fontang is annoyingly sibilant in this reading (her "s"s are so sharp some of them literally *whistle* - you simply must not use earphones). She also plods through the text somewhat (speeding to 1.20X helped). Slavic-sounding words and accents are realistic (and she largely avoids truly annoying character voices in this one), but her performance is sub-par. She was much better on 'Shadow and Bone' and hopefully will improve with 'Ruin and Rising'.
I will continue the series (the first novel - and to some extent *this* one - teases good things in the final installment), but the quality of this segment is disappointing.
I am hoping reading this was worth the investment. This stereotypical "middle" book is a 5-star out of 10 novel.
