My Review
Desert Melody by Laura Evans Serna was a well written science fiction novel. I really liked how the author,Laura Evans Serna, created a different world with different types of people and beings. I found the voyans to be particularly interesting with their special thought-sharing abilities and unique communal culture. Teagan was by far my favorite character I liked the fact that she was a mother and that her child was only have Voyan and half human. It made for an interesting plot point. The fact that she was a wet nurse trying to save the lives of babies was admirable and only added to her character. Overall, enjoyed reading this book and would recommend it to science fiction fans.
