Storm Thief wasn’t quite as wonderful as Chris Wooding’s earlier Poison (or it could just be that I prefer fairy-tales to more science fiction type stories). Nonetheless, the story of Rail and Moa, two young thieves, and their journey through the perils of Orokos, a city lashed by probability storms and ruled by a pitiless oligarchy, is gripping and beautifully told. I’m very excited to read some of Wooding’s speculative fiction for adults now!
