Publisher's Synopsis
(Sequel to Book Readers Appreciation Group honoree "Apprentice Storm Mage,")
Thomena's father cared enough to send her to the best guild of arcane sciences. At age sixteen, with her accomplishment at reaching a journeyman status, she decides to return across the sea to the country that she dimly recalls as her birthplace. She seeks to fill the emptiness in her heart where her father should have been in all those years of growing into a woman and becoming accomplished in the field of magic. The young mage must venture far from civilized lands in her search. Men whisper her father's nickname with equal parts respect and fear. When she finds him, she discovers the rough nature that had kept him alive for years on the edge of untamed wilderness. At the same time, there is a growing danger seeping out of the nearby jungle. Thomena witnesses how deadly a land could be where the human population is outnumbered by restless monsters. How will her magic fare against creatures who tower over twice her height?
