Book description
Reduner nomads have massacred the Quartern's Rainlords, leaving its
cities vulnerable to the relentless desert. Now Stormlord Shale must
stretch his powers to bring rain, or his people will die - if they don't
meet a Reduner knife first. However, Shale can't hold out alone for much
longer, and those who seek to exploit him are closing in. Rainlord
Kaneth has spurned these politics for war, and plans to defeat the
Reduner leader from his desert stronghold. But there are spies in
Kaneth's camp. Terelle has been Shale's secret weapon until now,
covertly boosting his powers. But her Uncle's magic compels her to
travel to distant Khromatis - and if she disobeys him it will destroy
her. Yet Khromatis gave the desert its first Stormlord, so Terelle may
find hope there as well as great danger . . . Glenda Larke was born in
Western Australia and trained as a teacher. She has taught English in
Australia, Vienna, Tunisia and Malaysia. Glenda has two children and
lives in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, with her husband.
