Dora, Ruth, Mary, Susan – these women pass the power to wrangle the weather from generation to generation. They wield their unstoppable forces to heal their beloved Gaia from the ravages caused by the global industrial complex. Unstoppable, that is, until one man finds a way to attack the women while extorting his fee from the polluting oligarchy.
Will the women overcome this adversary? Or will their world-wide coalition of weather wiccans fall apart under the assault? Will Gaia be left without her champions?
Read “Our Better Nature” by James C Porter, available on Amazon and at the Boulder Bookstore.

Do I dig #YA #fiction? Not what I've seen of it thus far & it's because I think #YA can handle more. They already do, we just need fiction that permits that: https://boldly.blue/ya-dystopian-fiction-dark-themes/

The Hunger Games is built on the premise of children murdering children on live television. The Giver depicts infanticide as routine civic procedure. Divergent packages totalitarian body-sorting as a personality quiz. YA dystopia is wildly popular and systematically defanged — and the gap between its premises and its execution tells us something important about how we talk to young readers about the darkness they already live inside.
Something very strange is afoot in Las Ráfagas, and Gus wants nothing to do with it. But the longer she's stuck, the deeper she gets pulled in.
Get your copy of Gas Giant Gambit, and unravel the plot.
