Sandstorm

A Forgotten Realms Novel

By: Christopher Rowe

Narrated by: Christopher Robin Miller

A hero rises from the ranks of slaves!

The genasi control almost all of Calimshan for their djinn overlords - all but a few outposts like the floating Island of the Free, where escaped slaves from Calimport's coliseum run their own brutal games. There, Cephas, a genasi with no memories of his past has spent his entire life fighting. But one day a circus of misfits, lead by the crowlike Corvus Nightfeather appear and free Cephas - and for the first time Cephas can harness his inborn powers and control the ground beneath his feet.

The newest Forgotten Realms author brings his talents to an area that has changed dramatically with the fresh take of Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition. The powerful elemental race of the genasi and the ruthless cultures of Calimshan are revealed through the rise of the Forgotten Realms' newest hero.

A little dry.

But that may have been because of the desert setting.:-)
There was a little too much description I of fighting, and there were some events happening that made me feel like I hade missed something. If I were not versed in Forfotten Realms lore, this would have been worse.
