2nd read, 5/1/20: Oh, I love Memory. I love the empaths, and the exploration of a new kind of empath and what that means for both the Empathic Collective AND the PsyNet as a whole. We still haven't managed to fix the human minds problem (BOWEN..........) but this is at least something to help them step further in the direction of fixing it.

1st read, 7/10/19: This was AWESOME and honestly so much better than Ocean Light (sorry Bowen!!! Humans are just boring!!!) but totally up there for me with Silver Silence and all the Arrow books. I missed the Es. This is so wonderful!

I would read more of the trilogy and the author, there were some plot features that seemed to go nowhere and then suddenly needed to be tied up at the end.

You have to love Amara.... "An individual stupid enough to get between a wolf and his mate is clearly no loss to the genetic tree" I love the glimpses into some of the older characters.

OMG I loved this story. So full of heart and sensual action as the H/h worked to pull the pain out of one another's hearts. The overall story ARC just gets more and more twisty and I can't wait to see what happens next with that.

Bumped up from 3 Stars to 4 Wolfy Chicken & Lioness Stars.

While doing a reread of this awesome series, I completely forgot this book even existed. It was just so unmemorable. Reading it for a second time I just don't know why I found it to be this way.

There isn't a lot I can really add to all the other reviews apart from that this is one of my favourite series which I have mentioned on numerous occasions.

Memory's designation is interesting to say the least. I hope there are more like her out there.

The world building is superb. The romance between the MCs feels organic, not forced. The overlying story arc of the failing Psy-net is compelling.

There are so many intricate details and even after 18 books, the story is kept fresh and new adversaries develop.

I love how we get different POVs from important characters. It's never jarring to switch POVs either, which is the sign of a well seasoned and accomplished author.

The family aspect of the pack and newly Silentless Psy gets to me!

I really could go more into the actual characters but I don't want to ruin anything. It's definitely a must read and while I'm and avid read in order person, you can definitely read this alone. But be ready tobwant sll the other books

This is definitely a series I will always keep up with.

Wolf Rain is book three in the Psy-Changeling Trinity series by Nalini Singh.

Singh never disappoints!

In Wolf Rain we go back to the SnowDancer pack.

Alexei is a lieutenant in the SnowDancer pack. I recognized him, but it took some memory jogging to fully pick out who he is. He used to be fun loving and outgoing, but with a tragedy in his past he’s become more recluse and not as easy going. It was intestine learning more about Alexi and seeing his struggle. Even with the pretty boy looks he’s a fighter. He wouldn’t be a lieutenant otherwise. I liked how he tried to give Memory her space and time for her to figure out who she is. He’s also got a sweet side that only the cubs and Memory see. It was touching seeing him evolve and resolve the past trauma with Memory by his side.

Memory is an E-Psy who’s been kept prisoner since childhood by another Psy. This other Psy has used Memory’s unique abilities to make himself a better murder. She’s a fighter. The emotional, mentally, and physically abuse she goes through is tough, but through it all she never gave up hope. I adored that she took the time to become her own person. I also found her unique ability interesting. Who knows, maybe it’s the key to preventing the PsyNet from collapsing.

As usual Singh combines a verity of elements regarding the Psy and shattering of Silence as well as a sensual and emotionally rich romance. I just adore this world and can’t wait to see where things go from here.

Narration: Angela Dawe has a great range of voices and accents. I could distinguish each character. The other thing I love about the audio is that the emotional struggles our characters face come across in such a real way that I became engrossed and couldn’t stop listening. I absolutely loved the audio.

Rated: 5 Stars
