Riders of the Storm

"With the publication of Reap the Wild Wind, Stratification #1, Julie E. Czerneda took readers back through time on a journey to the distant world of Cersi, where the Clan - known then as the Om'ray - had its origins. It was a planet inhabited by three sentient races, the technologically-oriented Oud, the Tikitik, versed in the biological sciences, and the Om'ray, somehow caught between these two species, and seemingly dependent on both." "Riders of the Storm picks up the story of the Om ray on Cersi. Led by Aryl Sarc into the mountains, the exiles from Yena Clan face not only the novelty of life on the ground, but their first winter. But the mountains hold a secret from the past that will change forever how the Om ray view themselves, their world, and their place in it."--BOOK JACKET.
