YA
Nym is a storm siren and a slave. Able to create storms and call down lightning, she is given the choice to hone her ability and fight in the centuries-old war her kingdom is losing or be executed. The world-building and secondary characters are unsubstantial, but a compelling plot with plenty of action will keep fantasy fans riveted.
