Dive into the gripping dystopian romantasy, Storm Breaker, the first book in a compelling new series by Nisha J. Tuli. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, this story blends the intensity of dystopian settings with high-stakes romance, drawing comparisons to popular titles like Divergent and Fourth Wing.

For nineteen-year-old Poet Graves, life inside the protected city of New Manhattan depends on conforming. Raised within the ruling Houses and betrothed to an elite heir, Poet must pass the brutal trials at the prestigious Amery Academy to secure her place among the elite. Failure means exile beyond the city walls where deadly electrical storms rage.

As Poet navigates the academy's harsh environment, she must conceal a dangerous secret: the storms do not just ravage the world—they answer to her. Her ambition to become a Storm Breaker clashes with the rigid control of the elite. When a mysterious outsider challenges everything she knows, Poet faces a choice that could cost her future, her freedom, and everything she has been promised.
