About Shadestorm by Haley Thomas
A divided city where unstable storms reign supreme. A magic just as unstable.
Something is wrong with Fulminancy, the magic that powers Hillcrest— whispers of exploding buildings, madness, and ever-greater storms. In Hillcrest, Fulminancy is king, and citizens fight and gamble in deadly rings for the privilege of wielding it. For Kess, a talented fighter running from her past, her Fulminancy should mean a life of luxury and peace. Instead, she finds herself hunted and worse, the victim of a past she can’t escape.
Kess sets up a deadly fight with a Fulminancer, hoping for redemption and a ticket out of the city, but when that fight goes horribly wrong, Kess is forced to ally with disgraced Rowan of Northmont, a man who loves unstable Fulminancy as much as Kess fears it.
Now, with the Uphill and Downhill on the brink of war, and the whisper of madness calling out to Kess from within her powers, Kess and Rowan must find a way to rescue her brother and unravel the mysteries behind Fulminancy— before the Shadestorm consumes them all.
