Storm Caller

Island Warrior #2

by Carol Severance

Legendary island warrior Iuti Manu is seeking refuge from her murderous brothers across the Empty Sea. Accompanied by Tarawe, the Storm Caller, Iuti flees her brothers' revenge for destroying the family's totem, the shark god. But the sea does not live up to its name. On what is supposed to be an empty, wet wasteland is a distant island. On this island mirage, the earth is rumbling and the dolphins are battling the birds for possession of the air as well as the sea. The only inhabitants are bloodthirsty bird-worshippers who are searching for a fresh sacrifice. Iuti must battle her nemesis alone, but only when the Storm Caller has mastered the art of controlling the winds and water. Together they help repair the broken magic of the sea.

[Searska GreyRaven · Rating 5 out of 5]

This one was much, much darker than the first. Still amazing.

More cool Pacific Island culture influence.

[Eric · Rating 4 out of 5]

More PG-13 Moana Polynesian fantasy! A bit more convoluted than book one but lots of awesomeness, danger and adventure.
