The storm has finally crossed the seas—The Storm Gathers by Maelan Holladay is now available globally in paperback.
This isn’t just another fantasy release. Kirkus Reviews hails it as “an electric work of epic fantasy,” where alliances fracture, power corrupts, and survival demands everything you have.
“One day, my dear daughter, you will destroy the world.”
That promise and warning sets the tone for a story where every choice carries consequences.
Five years after being forced from her home, Alana Zaya finally has the chance to return and claim the Okaron throne. But when her voyage is hijacked by pirates, she’s stranded among strangers hiding dangerous secrets—though none darker than her own.
Across the world, Rae Toma, a warrior branded a traitor, flees into the Shatter—a maze of islands from which no one has ever returned. There, she crosses paths with Nur Del Sue, a Stormwitch determined to prove her power in a world that refuses to see her worth.
Three lives. One collapsing world. And a storm that spares no one.
Now, for the first time, readers everywhere can step into Holladay’s haunting, sea-swept world—where power is deadly, and destiny demands sacrifice.
Don’t wait for the calm after the storm—this international edition is already making waves, and you won’t want to be the last to read the fantasy everyone’s talking about.

Across the world, Rae Toma is a warrior who can't walk away from a fight. After years of using her skills to rebel against the regime that trained her, her treachery is revealed, forcing her to flee into the Shatter—a maze of islands that no one has ever returned from.
There, she finds Nur Del Sue, a Stormwitch on a mission to prove herself in a world determined to ignore her.
