Providing a cozier fantasy experience that's both familiar and distinct, Hines's latest is recommended for fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender and Tomi Adeyemi's Children of Blood and Bone.-Library Journal
Nial Sarnin is twenty-one-far too young to have lost her beloved husband, Jika. One year after his death, Nial prepares to fly a kite sewn from his wedding shirt, believing it will carry Jika's spirit to the stars.
But instead of drifting gently skyward, the spirit kite moves under Nial's direct control, revealing her as a Kitemaster-a rare gift in a world forever ruled by winds and magic.
Her newfound powers attract Captain Wolf of the kiteship Midnight Rain. With runaway Prince Vikaan, Wolf seeks to thwart Queen Kavaya's ruthless ambition to dominate the skies and conquer all neighboring kingdoms.
Nial may hold the key to stopping Kavaya's brutal reign and saving countless lives-including those she loves most-but only if she learns to master her extraordinary gift in time.
Every gust of wind promises hope, renewal, and a chance to reshape a world teetering on the brink in this inspiring tale of loss, resilience, and transformation.
Award-winning author Jim C. Hines delivers a deeply personal epic in Kitemaster, a labor of love written over twenty years.
