A note for parents
The Storm Runner is an adventure fantasy grounded in Maya mythology that centers a disabled protagonist learning to embrace his abilities and identity. The story includes some magical combat and creepy supernatural elements, but nothing graphic or prolonged. Bullying and prejudice are central themes the narrative directly addresses and rejects, making this an empowering read for middle-grade and early YA audiences interested in mythology, adventure, or disability representation.

From the publisher
Zane has always enjoyed exploring the dormant volcano near his home in New Mexico, even though hiking it is challenging. He'd much rather hang out there with his dog, Rosie, than go to middle school, where kids call him Sir Limps a Lot, McGimpster, or Uno--for his one good leg.
