Ture­sobei dreamed of adven­ture, a way to prove he was no longer a child.

Wiz­ards should be care­ful what they wish for.

Des­tined to become his clan’s next high wiz­ard, stu­dious Ture­sobei has con­stantly strug­gled to live up to other people’s demands and expec­ta­tions, but now he’s had enough.

When his treasure-hunting father arrives with impor­tant news to dis­cuss with the cur­rent high wiz­ard, Ture­sobei spies on their secret meet­ing and acci­den­tally foils an assas­si­na­tion attempt. As a reward his father invites him on an expe­di­tion to find an arti­fact known as the Storm Dragon’s Heart.

But when dis­as­ter strikes, their quest becomes a race for survival.

Aided by a sassy ninja cat-girl and a mys­te­ri­ous diary that trans­forms into a winged famil­iar, Ture­sobei must face deadly cultists, venge­ful spir­its, and a mad wiz­ard from a rival clan who’s deter­mined to use the arti­fact to destroy Turesobei’s homeland.

The Storm Dragon’s Heart will delight read­ers with a thrilling tale of exotic lands, mys­ti­cal crea­tures, for­bid­den love, and fast-paced adven­ture. (Ages 10 and up)

If Ture­sobei thought becom­ing a hero would solve his prob­lems, he was wrong, dead wrong.

When the young wiz­ard joined his father on a quest for the Storm Dragon’s Heart all he wanted was a bit of adven­ture and free­dom from the pres­sures of being heir to the High Wizard.

Now with war loom­ing his clan sees him as a storm-powered super weapon, and expec­ta­tions are higher than ever. But every time Ture­sobei uses his new pow­ers, they threaten to over­whelm him. And the mys­te­ri­ous des­tiny hinted at by his bat-winged fetch draws closer every day.

Then he receives a blood­stained note from Iniru, the ninja cat-girl he couldn’t help but fall in love with, and life gets really complicated.

Ture­sobei must choose, love or duty. The wrong choice may doom the world. But sav­ing every­thing he cares for might mean los­ing himself.
