A review by esseastri
The Siren Depths by Martha Wells

5.0

I love Moon so much, he's such an idiot, they all love him SO MUCH and he just can't believe it. I love it. I love how Martha Wells writes characters. 

I also love how Martha Wells writes...everything? Settings and descriptions that are lush and vivid; plots and conflicts that grow up from each other, building on past conflicts in ever-increasing tension until it snaps into beautiful resolutions; characters who you love, no matter what. I am deeply enjoying this whole series, but this book in particular was a gorgeous master class in character, building conflict, and trust. Trust between the characters and trust between the author and the reader. I love it.
