Keynan is a kid living in a neighborhood that is cut off from the rest of the world by these highly destructive storms. He gets an invitation to Peerless Academy because he is doing so well on his online learning and, although he is initially reluctant, is persuaded to go so that he can figure out a way to stop the storms. When he gets to Peerless he finds out that everything is simple repetition and boring and they are learning NOTHING of any substance. Then weird things start happening and Keynan and his friends find that the world is not quite as it seems and they mean to be the ones to fix it...

The world building was creative. The way the storms were this terrible, almost living force. The way people banded together in co-ops to survive. The amazing sense of community. The descriptions were a feast of the senses; colorful with strong scents and sounds.
