The Thief of Worlds

 

Hurricane was named for the storm, and now that the wind has been stolen his mother is suffering in the hospital and is close to death.  Because of Hurricane’s connection to the wind he is chosen to find the thief and return the horn of the wind.  Not only has the wind been stolen but also water and independence.  Through friendships with a cat-like creature, and a frog-man and depending on others the twelve-year-old Hurricane saves the day and the other creatures.  Bruce Coville has written another epic fantasy with grand world building.  He is an excellent author of many types of books for middle grade aged students.
