Synopsis
The fourth installment of the thrilling middle-grade fantasy series from bestselling authors Garth Nix and Sean Williams.
Jack and Jaide Shield have defended themselves against The Evil before -- but it's never been as dangerous as this. It isn't just the town of Portland that's threatened, it's the whole Earth . . . and certain dimensions beyond.
The Wardens have devised a plan to get rid of The Evil once and for all. The only problem is that destroying The Evil may also mean abandoning some innocent people -- including one of the twins.
The battle against The Evil is going to places it's never been -- places Jack and Jaide would have never even imagined possible. Their mission is clear: survive the storm that's coming, and save the ones who are missing.

From School Library Journal
Gr 3–5—The Troubletwisters are back and the stakes are higher than they've ever been for twins Jack and Jaide. The Evil is threatening not just Portland but the whole world. The twins haven't even passed their tests to become Wardens yet, but they must join the battle against The Evil while the current Wardens are divided as to how to meet this terrible challenge. Grandma X turns out to have a much more significant role than they ever imagined, as does a long-lost relative. The twins are separated for much of the book, leading them to develop their strengths individually. Unfortunately, while one might expect this episode in the series to start with a bang, it takes quite a while to get moving and may put off reluctant readers who have stuck with the series up until now. Narrator Stanley McGeagh also falls off a bit; his foreign accents all sound the same in this recording. Still, he voices the twins as real individuals, and does an excellent job with the cats. While the book seems predominantly to tell and not show, it will be likely be popular with fans of the series and of Rick Riordan.—B. Allison Gray, Goleta Library, CA
