About this listen

All his life, Moon roamed the Three Worlds, a solitary wanderer forced to hide his true nature - until he was reunited with his own kind, the Raksura, and found a new life as consort to Jade, sister queen of the Indigo Cloud court. But now a rival court has laid claim to him, and Jade may or may not be willing to fight for him. Beset by doubts, Moon must travel in the company of strangers to a distant realm where he will finally face the forgotten secrets of his past, even as an old enemy returns with a vengeance. The Fell, a vicious race of shape-shifting predators, menaces groundlings and Raksura alike. Determined to crossbreed with the Raksura for arcane purposes, they are driven by an ancient voice that cries out from… The Siren Depths.

Editor reviews

The Siren Depths, third in Nebula Award nominee Martha Wells’ Books of the Raksura arc, follows series protagonist Moon as he attempts to settle quietly into his new role in the Indigo Cloud court. But with old enmities recurring, and another court attempting to claim Moon as their own, the quiet life may a long way off....

Voice actor Christopher Kipiniak turns in an impressive performance, his measured enunciation and pacing serving as a strong guide for listeners in Wells’ new, fantastical, and intricately crafted world. There’s action aplenty in this thrilling fantasy, but Kipiniak is especially adept at drawing out the deeper, darker questions that plague this troubled world.

Best in the series so far. Explored another court and some of the issues with Jade and Moon's relationship.

The next book in the series is Stories of the Raksura 1 rather than the book 4 listed by audible.

Good

Less predictable and a good story. I think I spotted a small mistake in the narration where Jade/Shade were confused.

Getting Better

I enjoyed the story and the narration is very good. BUT one or two of the characters voices are so low in volume that it's impossible to hear them if you listen without headphones or with bone conducting headphones if there's any other sound around. It fitted the characters, but made my experience worse as I needed to rewind at several occasions.

Good but some voices were too low

There was a lot going on all the time, it very intense. Non-stop action and drama.

Very intense!
