About this book
Sixteen-year-old Zuma "Z" Alexander has enough problems on Earth. Her father is dead, her relationship with her mother is falling apart, and debilitating migraines make everyday life a struggle.
Then, while kitesurfing off the California coast, Z encounters a mysterious green flash. She cuts her kite lines to escape a violent electrical storm, expecting to plunge into the Pacific Ocean.
Instead, she falls into another world.
Vindurheim is a world almost entirely covered by ocean, where rival peoples wage a brutal war aboard enormous sailing ships. Stranded far from home, Z must navigate unfamiliar cultures, dangerous alliances, and a conflict she barely understands.
Armed with her father's survival lessons, a sharp tongue, and a determination to find her place in the world, Z discovers that survival may be the least of her challenges.
WORLDWIND is a young adult fantasy adventure combining survival, humor, environmental themes, prejudice, friendship, and the search for belonging.
