Publisher's Synopsis
"An exchange of coins. A clink of chains. A slaver's ship destroyed. And now she's alone, on a mysterious island surrounded by impenetrable storms, her kidnapper her only friend."
In the city of Dynas Rhydent, all who are born with magic must succumb to the Trials by their 19th birthday.
Pass, and you'll be granted the title of Magi, a rank that brings wealth and privilege. Fail, and your life is no longer your own. Theorie du'Ambrine's powers are stilted, and as she nears her nineteenth birthday, she begins to fear the worst. During a chance encounter, she meets Kyte, a charmer, and a liar, but it will be his lies that take her from death and despair and into a world that humanity thought no longer existed, the realm of the Fae, where Theorie will meet the last prince of the Fae, Taren.
Once, Taren's empire spanned the globe. Now, a curse keeps his people locked behind a magical barrier, making them prisoners in their own home. Taren has all but given up on freeing his people until a violent storm washes a young mage onto their shores. A mage who just might have the power to free them. But that power comes at a cost-one that Taren is no longer sure he is willing to pay.
Reader Praise for Theorie of the Storm"Delaney pens a dramatic, strong, and vibrantly colored plot that makes the characters and world leap off the pages and directly into your imagination." - Tome Tender Book Blog
"A fantasy lover's dream! Rich in atmosphere, filled with the wily charm of the Fae, the feisty spirit of a young acolyte mage and each page gets better and better! The best part is this is only the start of a series that I must have more of!" Dianne, Goodreads Reviewer
"Brandon Sanderson has a new female counterpart and her name is Jane Delaney!" - Jackie, Amazon Reviewer
"A gem of a book, one that had familiar tropes from some of my most beloved books but enough character, history and magic to make it stand out on its own. Surprisingly very well written especially for a debut novel." The Fae Louise, Goodreads Reviewer and Book Blogger
