Description: Ten-year-old Solvei and her tribe of fire elementals, the áed, are on the run from those who hunt their kind, when an encounter with a Titan—a monster larger than mountains—leaves everyone but Solvei dead. Now alone, she makes her way into unknown lands where the skies pour down a fire elemental’s greatest weakness: water. Between a dark fog that swallows cities; tall, bearlike people at war against technologically superior humanoids; and worst of all, the ocean, the world beyond the fire elementals’ dry wastelands is anything but welcoming. Despite this, Solvei pushes on, searching for a place she can call home. But just when it seems things are starting to go her way, she discovers those hunting her kind have not stopped. They want to control her power as an elemental and direct it upon their enemies. Solvei will have to burn even hotter to retain her freedom, becoming an inferno . . . and an inferno cannot be stopped.

Description: After nearly dying within the all-encompassing Void Fog, Solvei—the fire elemental—returns to a war-devastated New Vetus to find the invading army slaughtered. She quickly leaves the country, soaring through the skies in her hawk form, searching for the friends she was separated from, and discovering a new reason to kindle her flames. Solvei may have escaped a deadly fate, but the Void Fog has left her changed, for both better and worse. Her altered form has brought her closer to fire than she’d ever thought possible, now able to shift the flames of her body beyond the capabilities of her elders. But her sudden, inexplicable improvement comes with a price: the very idea of being trapped sends her into a spiral of fear and desperation. She will never allow her freedom to be taken again. This journey will challenge Solvei as she struggles with trust, terror, and finding better ways to incinerate all that stands in the way of her freedom.
