Královna bouře se odehrává v temných dobách Darkoveru, kterým se dostalo jména Věk Chaosu. V těchto dnech se lidé teprve učí ovládat tajemnou sílu – a přitom ji často zneužívají v mocenských bojích mezi vzmáhajícími se panstvími. Tato mentálně fyzická síla hrozí uvrhnout Darkover do děsivého věku temna, který kdysi postihl vzdálenou, zapomenutou Zemi. Nikdo si ale neuvědomuje, že nebezpečí je ještě vážnější. Díky genetickému křížení rodů se podařilo vyšlechtit neuvěřitelně silné formy laranu, zvláštního nadání obyvatel Darkoveru. To se však vymkne kontrole ve chvíli, kdy se narodí dítě, jež dokáže ovládat čas i hrozivé síly bouře.
