Stormblade: Volume One

The storm embodies destruction, and now, so does Kade Noelstra.

On the worst day of his life, Kade's system awakened, giving him the power of a raging storm.

It came too late to save his stepfather, but it's enough to let Kade follow in his footsteps and keep the promises he made to his family that day. Yet the Unique skill he awakened is as strong as it is dangerous—for him and everyone around him. Most people would abandon a skill that unpredictable. Kade has other plans.

Skills can be merged. Storms can be tamed. The system’s Laws can be learned. All Kade has to do is clear portals like his stepfather, gather the cores from the monsters within, and complete the skill build he’s been planning for months. But the first core he uses opens up a brand-new path to power, and the speed of his growth draws unwanted attention, both human and otherwise.

He can't afford to slow down. The portals grow ever more numerous, and the people he cares about are in danger.

He'll forge his lightning into a blade, no matter who or what tries to stop him.
