Storm: Dawn of a Goddess by Tiffany D. JacksonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Ororo has been living on the streets of Cairo for years. Ever since she survived the plane crash that killed her parents, she has been keeping her white hair covered and her blue eyes down. Fortunately, she is good at what she does … taking things from tourists. Her skill as a pickpocket isn’t her only feature, though. Sometimes, if she is upset, sudden storms appear around her. Her life may not be perfect, but it is hers until the Shadow King locates her and she must run and discover where her powers come from. Will Ororo learn to control her powers? What truths will she discover about her people?
Storm: Dawn of a Goddess is a stand-alone fantasy adventure story for fans of the Marvel Universe and even those who know nothing about it. This origin story has many cameo appearances from beloved Marvel characters and the adventure that Ororo is subject to was exhilarating. I found myself finding time to get back to the book quickly so that I could see how it would unfold. Jackson hit the book out of the ballpark with this story and this updated world has more stories available if she wants to continue.
