I have nothing but good things to say about Storm of Locusts and it’s amazing story lines. And in Storm of Locusts she is joined by some other fabulous comrades – Ben (who’s bisexual) and Rissa. Maggie is as clever, sarcastic, and powerful as ever. There’s such a wealth of rich world building, fantasy elements, and character development. The Sixth World is a series that I know I’ll be reading and re-reading in the future. Storm of Locusts is a fabulous sequel to the powerful and action packed Trail of Lightning. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.) (Disclaimer: I received this book from Edelweiss. When the full scope of the White Locust’s plans are revealed, Maggie’s burgeoning trust in her friends, and herself, will be pushed to the breaking point, and not everyone will survive. But the cult leader is nothing like she suspected, and Kai might not need rescuing after all. With the aid of a motley collection of allies, Maggie must battle body harvesters, newborn casino gods, and, ultimately the White Locust himself. Her search leads her beyond the Walls of Dinétah and straight into the horrors of the Big Water world outside. She vows to track down the White Locust, rescue Kai, and make things right between them both. The Goodacres are convinced that Kai’s a true believer, but Maggie suspects there’s more to Kai’s new faith than meets the eye. Then the Goodacre twins show up at Maggie’s door with the news that Kai and the youngest Goodacre, Caleb, have fallen in with a mysterious cult, led by a figure out of Navajo legend called the White Locust.
Only her latest bounty hunt has gone sideways, she’s lost her only friend, Kai Arviso, and she’s somehow found herself responsible for a young girl with a strange clan power. It’s been four weeks since the bloody showdown at Black Mesa, and Maggie Hoskie, Diné monster hunter, is trying to make the best of things.
The sequel is phenomenal and everything I could have wanted for the series. Having been swept away by Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse, I knew I had to check out the sequel, Storm of Locusts.
