This story follows three characters, its namesake Stormwind, the woman Carmella, and the Purist Aodhfin. It does a decent job giving you an overview of the world the story takes place in, but leaves you wanting more. There is a lot to build on. Personally, I didn't like Stormwind in the beginning, but upon Aodhfin's introduction, I started to warm up to him as he is forced to face his own hypocrisy. There are questions left to be answered, but there are other books to answer those questions. Stormwind is a good intro to give you a taste of the world and characters. I look forward to picking up the series.

This is a shorter style offering, so the transitions seem rushed at times, but the story arc is interesting and the characters are likable to the point of wanting to know more about who they are. It was a fine read.

Found the story intriguing, full of action, and one hell of a plot twist that makes you wonder about the world of Kuldarr. I am looking forward to seeing where this elf Stormwind will be heading next in this series.
