How I Got It: I own it
Mistaken for a murderer, Weather Warden Joanne Baldwin is hunted down and killed by her colleagues. Reborn as a Djinn, she senses something sinister entering earth's atmosphere-something that makes tomorrow's forecast look deadly.
Second volume of Joanne Baldwin's journey and I'm still hooked. Making Joanne a Djinn was a gamble and a hell of an entertaining one. I loved seeing her attempt to master the Djinn powers, and yet retain her human fierceness. It was also a treat to see how she would deal without David to lead her along. I love her independent spirit. And the introduction of a few new characters (Yvette, Kevin, Jonathon) was a nice touch. They kept the series from falling into predictable. On to the next one...
