For a thousand years, Seg’s people hid behind stone and shield from the mysterious entity known as the Storm. Civilizations fell, cities crumbled, and the last desperate inhabitants of a once-flourishing planet became merciless tyrants in the name of survival.
One man knows how it ends.
Trapped on a dead world, the only chance of escape a warp gate in the heart of an enemy base, Seg must fight his way back to his home world. But he carries a fatal secret: a new kind of Storm is coming and nothing will survive its fury. Against impossible odds, he struggles to save the citizens of Julewa Keep before the coming apocalypse.
One woman holds the key to survival.
Returned from certain death inside the Storm, Ama reunites with Seg as they face planet-wide extinction. Her strange and evolving new powers can save lives or take them, but the countdown has begun. She must master her powers before the final Storm destroys everything she has fought for and devours everyone she loves.
Kristene is a former professional stunt performer for film and television (as Kristene Kenward) and a self-described ‘fishing goddess’. Pathologically nomadic, she has lived in Japan, Costa Rica, the Cook Islands and a very tiny key in the Bahamas, just to name a few. Her stories have appeared in Canadian Storyteller Magazine, The Barbaric Yawp, Hemispheres Magazine, Denizens of Darkness, Pulp Literature, Escape Pod, and On Spec. In 2010 she won the Surrey International Writers’ Conference Storyteller Award for BIRDS ALSO CRY and in 2015 she was a Writers of the Future Finalist.
She is the co-author of the five-book, adventure science fiction series Warpworld, which she penned with Joshua Simpson, and is back at the keyboard after an extended break.
Kristene currently resides in the salmon capitol of the world, Campbell River, BC, Canada, but her suitcase is always packed.
Late review for an excellent book. And they (Kistene and Joshua) keep on giving us fuel for our dystopian needs.
This book starts right off at the end of the last book, and till the end its another emotional ride for the characters and for the reader. Can't wait for its conclusion... even though is somewhat bittersweet to think that it's coming to an end.
