To read one of Storm's books is to enter a world where there is much more than meets the eye and mysteries lie at the heart of things. Magic is essential, and sexuality, often of the forbidden variety, yields not only pleasure but a means of altering reality and opening up the doors to these mysteries. Storm's different races and cultures-- the Wraeththu, the Grigori, the Eloim, the Artemesians, and more -- all struggle with balancing magic with the everyday, maintaining harmony in their own world while pushing open the doors to worlds less known, although sometimes far more ancient or exotic.
In recent years Storm has returned to the world of Wraeththu with a roar and cry, creating a second trilogy that interlocks with and then continues the story of the original. The Wraiths of Will and Pleasure, the first book in the series, was published in 2003 to acclaim by fans, and the second book, The Shades of Time and Memory, appeared in 2004. The final book in the new series, The Ghosts of Blood and Innocence, is set for U.S. and U.K. release in 2005. Storm has also written a new stand-alone Wraeththu novella, The Hienama, to be published this year by Immanion Press.
In 2003 Storm began new chapter in her life, starting up a new publishing company called Immanion Press, which has put out editions of books in her out-of-print back catalog, U.K. editions of her latest works, as well as "Wraeththu Mythos" novels and works by other authors, both seasoned authors (Ian Watson, Freda Warrington, etc.) and new faces. IP's first release was an edited, deluxe edition of The Enchantments of Flesh and Spirit, followed by new editions of The Bewitchments of Love and Hate and The Fulfilments of Fate and Desire. All three books are re-edited with cover and interior artwork by Ruby as well as expanded, updated appendices. In 2003, IP released the first "Wraeththu Mythos" novel, Breeding Discontent (Oct. 2003), by Wendy Darling and Bridgette Parker. Another major Wraeththu project coming out of Immanion Press is From Enchantments to Fulfilment, a Wraeththu role-playing game.
Storm has also been busy with conventions, after some years away. It began in October 2003, when Storm and her friends held Grissecon 1, the first ever Wraeththu convention in Stafford, England. This was a great success, and in 2004 was repeated as part of the huge Dragon*Con fantasy convention in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, where it had its own programme track. In 2004 Storm was "Author Guest of Honor" at Lunacon, the annual convention of the New York Science Fiction Society; Storm will make a repeat appearance in 2005 as she and associates offer more "Grissecon" programming.
