Publisher Description

Lightning, espionage, and magic—Inselgrau's fate lies in the hands of one thunder goddess with a heart of iron, one exiled spy, and one Magician haunted by chronic pain.

Evelyn Stormbourne's dominion over the skies has grown formidable, but she receives word from her spymaster that an old and powerful enemy has taken her throne by lethal force. To get her country back, she must free her greatest nemesis from an ancient Magical prison, and offer him as ransom for the release of Inselgrau.

EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the third book in the "Stormbourne Chronicles" series of young adult fantasies, where you'll discover an extraordinary new world, epic adventure, and memorable characters.

“I loved this series so much that I put off reading the last book because I didn’t want it to end. I loved all the characters so much, even the evil ones! I’m sure that in a few months I will be thinking about these characters and sad that the trilogy is over.”
“While I'm saddened to see this fantastical adventure come to an end, what a way to go! Crown of Thunder gives us the end of a magical journey, but also a hopeful beginning of sorts that is just as important. https://images.gr-assets.com/hostedimages/1547320924ra/26907425.gif One of the things I found most enchanting about this addition might not be what you would expect. Can we please take a minute to talk about the storyline between Evie and Jackie Faercourt? I never in a million years could have envisioned their inevitable culmination to play out the way it did. Absolutely brilliant! I'm at war with myself a little where this is concerned because the ultimate reconciliation was <strong>EPIC</strong>, but there's also a part of me that really would have <strong>LOVED</strong> even more Jackie. That's really a testament to just how well written a character he was and also how he surprisingly added more depth to Evie as well. I was not prepared for him to rise to these all new heights in this book. I thought I knew him. I thought I knew how things would go when their paths crossed again. I thought wrong. At one point I thought <strong>PLEASE LET THIS BE A SET UP FOR A SPINOFF ANTIHERO STORY</strong>. He ultimately became one of the most interesting characters to me, and although I do not see any antihero redemption stories in his future, the way that things played out was really quite perfect. Evie suddenly becomes all of us, confused by the warring emotions swirling around inside of her and unexpectedly battered by this sadness that was so unexpectedly powerful where Jackie is concerned. https://images.gr-assets.com/hostedimages/1547320924ra/26907424.gif I was so glad to see just how much Evie had grown as a person in this one. Her wild adventure to find her way back home took a young, sheltered, naive girl and helped shape her into a fierce, compassionate, prudent queen. She found herself out on the road, (air and sea too!) and she found her people and her purpose. https://images.gr-assets.com/hostedimages/1547320924ra/26907423.gif I also found that I enjoyed the few quiet moments, in between the chaos. The moments where she strolled with a friend and they reminisced on their childhoods and let themselves think of the homes they desperately missed in a way they haven't in so long. Or stolen moments with her heart's desire that even in a war they took the few moments to remind each other what else they were fighting for. I just love this whole world, so full of magic and mayhem, so vibrant and full of the most colorful people. I would be enamored by any one of their tales, I'm sure of it! I'm sad to say goodbye to it, but a girl can always dream that maybe instead it is, until we meet again one day. https://images.gr-assets.com/hostedimages/1547320924ra/26907422.gif”
