OverviewThe second book of the Twig Saga, part of the bestselling Edge Chronicles. Twig Verginix has now realised his dream of becoming a sky pirate, exploring the skies of the Edge as a crew-member of The Stormchaser. That is until Cloud Wolf forbids him from coming on the dangerous quest to collect stormphrax - a valuable substance created inside the heart of a Great Storm. Twig refuses to leave his beloved skyship and smuggles himself on board The Stormchaser - but can the ship, and its crew - survive the destructive force of the Great Storm itself?
