Storm  opened  her  eyes  and  saw  a  green-blue  world.  Rainbow  fish  chased  each  other  through  forests  of  seaweed.  Fingers  of  rock  pierced  the  weed,  threatening.  She  arched  her  back,  pointed  her  arms  skyward.  The  momentum  of  the  dive  swept  her  half-circle  and  up,  back  towards  the  skin  between  sea  and  air.  Maybe  this  time  all  would  be  well...
Child of Air, Water, Earth or Fire: now that she is thirteen Storm must undertake The Choosing and be claimed by one of the Elementals, which will determine her whole life's work. But for Storm, daughter of a father murdered by Water and a warrior mother claimed by Earth, there will be no easy destiny.
The Elementals bestow her with a great and terrible gift. Storm-bringer. Storm-rider. Storm-queller. Storm has powers that no one, not even the island Elders, can understand. And when the Drowned Ones - a savage band of pirates who roam the seas on floating towns - attack her island, will her powers help her to save the people she loves, or is her fate to betray everything she holds dear? Soon Storm faces a decision that will change her life - and that of everyone who lives on her island - forever.
A powerful new fantasy series from Ellen Renner, prize-winning author of Tribute and Castle of Shadows.
