There is a storm coming, a storm of rage and fury and chaos. The friendship between Fin, Christopher and Joe, which held strong through their last adventure, is breaking down as Joe, now a holder of two of the five stories that hold the worlds together, finds his mind being warped by the stories and their uncontrollable power. The Knights of Nowhere, inter-world peacekeepers with the ability to pass between the worlds of Somewhere and Nowhere, barely have time to initiate a few new members to their dwindling force before they find themselves pushed to their limits, simultaneously dealing with something that is attacking people at random and causing madness, and the implications of the Prophecy, which heralds a war to end all wars. All his life people have called Fin special, for some reason unknown to him, and perhaps unknown to them. However, when Fin finally learns the true nature of his parents, his very existence is shaken to the core, and he suddenly finds himself questioning everything he previously believed in.

The book ends on the mother of all cliffhangers, so I'm now drooling for the conclusion to the trilogy, which fortunately arrives in just a few months.

If you like the sound of The Nowhere Chronicles, there's no better place to start than with the first book in the series [[The Nowhere Chronicles: The Double-Edged Sword by Sarah Silverwood| The Double-Edged Sword]]. Teens who enjoy this sort of intense fantasy may well enjoy [[Incarceron by Catherine Fisher]] a fantasy novel that deals well with a lot of serious issues. If you liked the element of the strong relationship between the main characters, as well as the epic scale of the action, then I would definitely recommend [[Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy]] the first in a series that has yet to fail to entertain me with its witty, often hilarious, dialogue and smart plotting.
