Princess Azmei died for her
country three years ago–or so everyone but a trusted few believed. Having
survived assassination attempts, the desert, dragons, and a treacherous plot
designed to destroy her entire family, Azmei has finally managed to save her kingdom.
Now she has to save the world.
Azmei travels to Amethir, whose
prince she promised three years ago to marry. With her is Hawk, the man who
loves her, and Yar, the Voice of Dragons. They carry a terrifying message for
the king of Amethir: the gods are waking and the world is about to shake.
Prince Vistaren of Amethir has
also received a frightening warning, this one from a powerful
stormwitch–weather magic is failing. Patterns of storms are beginning to build
outside their prescribed season. While the Stormwitch Academy officially denies
any problems, there are hints of trouble yet to come.
Azmei and Vistaren know they must
act. But the king refuses to listen to them and the land is beginning to tear
itself apart. Facing pirate attacks, seadragon swarms, and a strange woman who
uses magic in a way no stormwitch should, Vistaren and Azmei know they must
find a way to set things right.
But what price is too high to
save the world?

Author Info
Stephanie
A. Cain grew up in Indiana, where much of her urban fantasy is set, but
unfortunately has been unable to visit Amethir or Tamnen, where her epic
fantasy novels are set.
She
graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor of Arts in History and
Creative Writing, with a Medieval Studies minor. She has two-thirds of a Master
of Library Science, but ran out of money and enthusiasm for grad school at
about the same time. Despite this, her years of work in libraries were not
wasted--besides having a lot of librarian friends (everyone should have at
least one) she also spent a great deal of time hanging out in the stacks at
398.2, which gave rise to many of her urban fantasy stories.
She
currently works at the General Lew Wallace Study & Museum, where she spends
her time doing historical research, giving tours of a Victorian man-cave, and
serving as a one-woman IT department.
Stephanie's
favorite authors are J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Elizabeth Moon, Tamora Pierce,
Garth Nix, and Robin McKinley.
A
proud crazy cat lady, Stephanie is happily owned by Eowyn, Strider, and Eustace
Clarence Scrubb. In her free time, she enjoys hiking (except for the spiders),
bird-watching, visiting wineries, and collecting anything with owls on it. She
likes to unwind by playing World of Warcraft and Skyrim. She enjoys organizing
things, is overly fond of notebooks, and visits office supply stores for fun.
She owns way more movie scores and fountain pens than she can actually afford.
