Empire. Revolution. Magic. Gerrit is the son of Bourshkanya’s Supreme-General. Despite his powerful storm-affinity and the State’s best training, he can’t control his magic. To escape the brutal consequences, he flees.
Celka is a travelling circus performer, hiding both her link to the underground and her storm-affinity from the prying eyes of the secret police. But Gerrit’s arrival threatens to expose everything: her magic, her family, and the people they protect.
The storms have returned, and everything will change.
Gerrit is the son of Bourshkanya’s Supreme-General. Celka is a travelling circus performer... and a member of the revolutionary underground. Between them, they have the knowledge and instinct to unlock the secret of the magical storms, if they can ever learn to trust each other.
“An electrifying debut (pardon the pun) that infuses magical resistance with a Russian flair. You bet I’ll be reading the sequel when it comes out.”
