About this eBook
An original eNovella set in the world of the Lotus War before the events of Stormdancer...
Your blood-red skies are filled with smoke. Your bleach-white histories with lies. You walk sleeping. Wake senseless. Breathing deep of toxic blooms and forgetting all that has gone before. But I remember.
I remember when two brothers waged bloody war over the right to sit in their father's empty chair. I remember when orphaned twins faced each other across a field of crimson and steel, the fate of the Shima Shogunate hanging in the poisoned sky between them.
I remember when a blind boy stood before a court of storms and talons, armed only with a thin sword and a muttered prophecy and a desperate dream of saving the world.
I remember when the skies above Shima were not red, but blue. Filled with thunder tigers. I remember when they left you. And I remember why. Let me tell you, monkey-child.

I have always wanted to read the series and I plan on getting Stormdancer soon to start. But when I saw this for how inexpensive it was I had to have it. It's short but amazing all the same, and the plot twists I didn't see coming. I think I'm gonna love this series.
