Description
Stormteller by David Thorpe is a gripping drama for young adults that weaves together Celtic myth and climate-changed destinies to explore the question: can we escape our apparent fate? When a storm surge destroys Tomos' home and his parents die, and Bryn's eco-home is torched and his parents killed by starving marauders, these two rivals are forced to rely on each other for survival in the wild uplands of Wales. As they navigate their treacherous new world, they discover an astonishing bond that joins them together. Their journey is intertwined with an ancient rivalry between fabulous beings, including Ceridwen, the Welsh Goddess of Inspiration, who are seeking to rewrite the endings of their own stories. With survival hanging in the balance, Tomos and Bryn must confront the forces beyond their control and find hope in a desperate world. As they face their uncertain futures, Stormteller is a compelling tale of friendship, loyalty, and the power of human connection in the face of adversity.
