6/9/2023 0 Comments Storm of locusts book![]() ![]() ![]() Roanhorse has the knack for getting you into the action quickly-essential in urban fantasy, in my opinion. In fact, I found this one eminently satisfying: I read it in a single Sunday afternoon! Roanhorse drops the major details here and there, but she is restrained with the exposition-usually a plus, and to be honest, you don’t need to remember all the details of the first book to follow this one. I actually remember very little about the plot of Trail of Lightning. The mission goes sideways in a big way, and Maggie picks up the pieces and finds herself responsible for a young woman, Ben, with some clan powers, a chip on her shoulder, and nothing left to lose-remind you of anyone? Maggie, Ben, and other allies have to leave Dinétah to find the White Locust-as well as Kai Arviso, Maggie’s onetime love and the man she killed to save the day last time. Maggie agrees to help the Thirsty Boys apprehend the White Locust, a strange cult leader buying up explosives. Storm of Locusts picks up not too long after Trail of Lightning. Rebecca Roanhorse bottled lightning once, and now she is back to do it again ![]()
