The “unparalleled romantic adventure”* of Nalini Singh’s New York Times bestselling series continues as a new dawn begins for the Psy-Changeling world...
The Psy-Changeling world has undergone a staggering transformation and now stands at a crossroads. The Trinity Accord promises a new era of cooperation between disparate races and groups. It is a beacon of hope held together by many hands: Old enemies. New allies. Wary loners.
But a century of distrust and suspicion can’t be so easily forgotten and threatens to shatter Trinity from within at any moment. As rival members vie for dominance, chaos and evil gather in the shadows and a kidnapped woman’s cry for help washes up in San Francisco, while the Consortium turns its murderous gaze toward a child who is the embodiment of change, of love, of piercing hope: A child who is both Psy…and changeling.
To find the lost, protect the vulnerable—and save Trinity—no one can stand alone. This is a time of loyalty across divisions, of bonds woven into the heart and the soul, of heroes known and unknown standing back to back and holding the line. But is an allegiance of honor even possible with traitors lurking in their midst?
Summary
There has been quite a few changes in the Psy Changeling World, there is a new era of cooperation and working together between the species. But they have enemies who want to destroy this new agreement, and it will take hard work and creativity to get to the bottom of what is really going on. At the same time, there is a sea changeling missing, and being held captive. Psy, Changeling and even human will need to learn to work as one and trust each other and everything that they have worked so hard since silence fell will be for nothing. Will these three groups be able to let go of the past to embrace the future….
Plot and Story Line
Allegiance Of Honor was quite different than I expected it to be, so don’t go in reading this like it will be like all the other novels in the series…because it is so different from anything I have read from Nalini Singh. Even though its not what you expect, doesn’t mean a bad thing. I quite enjoyed this story, and it is still packed with the same beautiful and compelling writing we have come to expect from this author. Nalini Singh is one of my favorite authors because of how easy it is to get lost in her stories, and Allegiance Of Honor is no different. So what makes Allegiance Of Honor different? Well first off there isn’t a “main” couple in this story. We get to revisit all of our old favorites, and I was quite pleased in how these played out. We got to meet the pupcubs and get some fun interaction between Naya and her parents Lucas and Sasha. Love seeing this small little family and a couple new surprises that are fun and delightful. And we get some fun with Riley and Mercy. Now these two I just LOVE and adore. Mercy is pregnant with three pupcubs, but we see a different side to her. She isn’t crazy or super dominant, we see a softer side to her personality and I couldn’t get enough of how she treats Riley in this one especially when he gets a tad overprotective. And as always life between Hawke and Sienna isn’t calm waters…but what a ride they give us. I just loved getting these small glimpses of all of these couples, that we have seen in the series and taking a glimpse of their lives after they reach their HEA. I just soaked this book up like a sponge and I am eager to see what Singh comes up with next.
The Cover
Different and unique….I love the dark blue and the interstellar theme going on here!!!
Overall View
Allegiance Of Honor was a fun and sweet read where you can revisit all your favorite couples and their families and a bit of mischief and crazy stunts!!! a MUST READ for lovers of the Psy Changeling world!!!
Yay!! I was so hoping you’d love this too. 🙂 Nalini is such an awesome author and I kind of liked that this was more of a compilation instead of focusing on just one couple. It had a great sense of family and community to it.
I agree! Very easy to get lost in her stories. Good to know that this one is a bit of a deviation from the usual. Plan to start this series in the next few months after I finish Eileen Wilks’ series.
I’ve never been a huge paranormal romance reader. But I do love Nalini Singh’s books. I recently read White Tiger by Jennifer Ashley and LOVED IT! So I am definitely open to trying out this genre.
I only read book 1 I am not sure why I did not continue reading this series, I thought it was well written and the start of the world looked good. 15!! wow, thats a lot of books to catch up on
Haven’t read paranormal romance but reading this review, I think I’ve got to try one. Thanks for this awesome review!

I miss this series, but when my pnr thrill died, it died
I bought book one in this series recently! Can’t wait to start it!
Gosh that series is so long! I’ve not read anything by Singh, but I’ve seen such great reviews for this series. Perhaps one day I will binge-read them all. 😀 This series sounds so complex and filled with many well-developed characters! It’s amazing how authors do that. =)
Great review!
