Despite wacky weather threatening the San Francisco area,
life for the Charmed Ones is as normal as ever. Normal, that
is, until 11 year old Tyler Michaels shows up at their door.
Tyler, a Firestarter, is on the run from demons. Though the
Halliwell sisters have dealt with Tyler before, a glance at
the Book of Shadows turns up new, unexpected information about
the boy... and the forces for which his magic can be harnessed...
Once
a century the planets align in such a way that the tides shift
and the climate changes, causing unpredictable weather and
earthquakes. With the world out of balance the Firestarter
is charged with gathering the other Elementals on the Night
of Aeolus to perform a sacred ritual. Without this ritual
the weather will eventually tear the world apart. But the
demons chasing Tyler want to divert the Elemental power and
channel it for a dark evil. The Charmed Ones must prevent
this from happening at all costs - but the Night of Aeolus
is already upon them.
The
Brewing Storm sees the Halliwell sisters attempting to
save the world again. The narrative flows well, but something
just didn't feel right. I couldn't put my finger on it. It
may have been that some of the dialogue didn't sound right
on the lips of the main characters, it may have been some
of the slightly forced conversations - there is an exchange
between Phoebe and Gabrielle, about Gabrielle's career change,
that seemed too forced. And there are a few other instances
were the narrative didn't flow as well as it should have.
But,
to be quite honest, these complaints are few and far between
and in the end what you have is another
another above average Charmed book to add to your collection.
