On Wakaia, Mother Nature rules supreme. In its short history, this fictional world has long been plagued by natural disaster and abnormal weather. Of all casualties throughout the years, perhaps none was more portentous than Samantha Capri's family. Following the murder of her husband's parents, Sam discovers new purpose in life. Using her unique, erratic personality, she networks her way from working as a meager accountant to becoming a prolific politico. Sam establishes the Disaster Prevention Assembly and begins to question the facts of daily living. At the same time, big changes emerge across a unique governing system. The Interterritorial Association, chief ruling body of Wakaia, reluctantly installs a new leader, following the death of longstanding King Alexander. To the delight of his people, but to the dismay of the other Kings, Sir Josef Frederick creates a new landscape. Through hard effort, perseverance, and a bit of luck, Samantha and her confidantes stumble upon an unbelievable secret. Through a series of miracles, King Frederick helps transform their dreams into reality. Unfortunately, corruption stands between truth and lie. In order to break down Mother Nature's walls of deceit, Sam and Josef must risk everything.
About the Author: Kyle Charles Ball was born on October 13, 1996. He grew up in West Chester, Pennsylvania and currently studies Athletic Training at the University of Delaware. While he was born to write, Kyle has always had a love for sports medicine and physical therapy. Kyle began writing his first fiction novel, Wondrous Winds of Wakaia, when he was only eighteen years old. Although he never had any formal, professional experience in literature, he knew that he had a story to tell. A variety of influences prompted Kyle's journey into becoming an author. He was always very introverted, thoughtful, and independent, but he never found a healthy outlet to channel his ideas and opinions. Dark and light themes manifest themselves into his work, largely because his worst experiences have helped produce his brightest moments. Kyle hopes that he will receive enough acclaim to propel him into a career in journalism. At only twenty years old, he believes that his technique and style will only improve with time and exposure. Regardless, he will continue to create art, in any form, for personal gain and others' entertainment.
