The Boy Who Swallowed Lightning

The Boy Who Swallowed LightningA Novel by May Arlene PrinceEzra has always been different. Born beneath a sky split open by an impossible storm, he carries a secret within him-a force too powerful for any human body to contain. When he inhales, he tastes the static of the universe; when he exhales, thunder rumbles beneath his skin. Ezra has swallowed lightning. But power like his was never meant to be held by mortal hands.
As strange visions of distant worlds and fractured time begin to haunt him, Ezra embarks on a journey to uncover the truth of what he is-before the energy inside him burns him from the inside out. With every step, he is pursued by shadowy forces that whisper of fate, of prophecy, and of a war older than the stars themselves. Guided by an enigmatic old woman who seems to know too much and a girl who sees storms in colors, Ezra must unlock the mystery of his own existence before the storm within him erupts, shattering not just his body, but the fabric of reality itself.
Poetic, electrifying, and breathtakingly original, The Boy Who Swallowed Lightning is a haunting coming-of-age odyssey-a tale of power, destiny, and the thunderous cost of holding the universe inside your soul.
