Captain Arama Dzornaea thought she was just supposed to transport Crown Prince Vistaren Doth'Mara to meet his contracted bride. As the king's top privateer, she thinks she can handle anything. What Arama doesn't anticipate is storms out of season, an unruly stormwitch, and a strange witchery echo that puts Arama, her ship the Dawn Star, and everyone aboard smack in the middle of a mystery.

Stormsinger was written as part of the 8-hour eBook Challenge issued by J.A. Konrath some years ago. Since it was written in seven hours, it is only 8,500 words–longer than a short story, not quite a novella. It introduces the characters of my Storms in Amethir series.
