The Storms of Chai is a forthcoming release in the award-winning Lone Wolf series of gamebooks created and written by Joe Dever. The latest installment is part of the New Order series which details the adventures of one of Lone Wolf's disciples in the New Kai Order and not Lone Wolf himself. The book is set in MS 5102, 18 years after the ending of book 28, The Hunger of Sejanoz.[1] The book was set to be released in 2008 and then in March 2010,[2] but as of December 2010, the book is scheduled for a 2011 release.

In its December 2010 issue of Signs & Portents, Mongoose published the timeline of the events that took place in Magnamund between the end of book 28 and the beginning of book 29.[3] In the same issue, the first section of the book, the Story so Far, has also been published, revealing the mission that the reader will have to undertake. The Claw of Naar is the evil wand of power used by Agarash the Damned during his ancient conquest of Magnamund. After retrieving it in Vampirium, you have handed it over to the Elder Magi who had since then tried to destroy it. That was 18 years ago but Elder Magi are still trying to figure out how to annihilate this evil item. You are now living in the new Kai Monastery on the Isle of Lorn and grim news are brought to you attention: several hordes of Agarashi have been spotted all over Magnamund, one of them marching towards the country of Chai, ruled by the young Khea-khan Lao Tin. The reason: one of the gems that embellish the Khea-khan's throne is the Eye of Agarash, a stone that can be coupled with the Claw of Naar to increase its destructive power. Your mission is to retrieve the Eye of Agarash before your enemies.[4]
