NO MATTER HOW FAST YOU ARE, SOME THINGS YOU CAN’T OUTRUN…
Thea
loves to run.
Theadne
Adir has a gift for speed. It’s the seventeen-year-old’s ticket off Qalon, the
war-torn, dust-bowl of a planet she calls home. When she’s a star – track
sports are big in the Sarall Supremacy – she can finally pamper her
hard-working mom and get her little brother, Joss, the medical care he
desperately needs.
When the
Supremacy’s war kills Thea’s plans, her way out is shut until a chance
encounter leads Thea on a race out of her scarred but familiar life and into the arms of an enemy not at all what they seem. With the help of an
alien prince and some unlikely allies, Thea finds herself running not for
medals, but for the future of Qalon and the soul of a downtrodden people.
From a
theater’s catacombs to a nightmarish wilderness to the top of the tallest
building on the planet, the struggle for Qalon coincides with Thea’s own
struggle to accept that the lie her teacher told her just might be true: that
she – Theadne Adir – is the living incarnation of Qalon’s greatest legend, the
Wind Maiden.
