Review

Praise for We Are the Fire: "At once brutal and tender, this heart-pounding debut will make you ponder what it means to be monstrous--and what it costs to be human." --Joanna Ruth Meyer, author of Echo North and Into the Heartless Wood "Brutally monstrous and achingly human, We Are the Fire is a tale that is sprawling and intimate, beautiful and grotesque. Told at breakneck speed, the narrative is as unforgiving as its world, where love is dangerous, hope is fleeting, and the same fire that built the empire can tear it back down." --Nicki Pau Preto, author of Crown of Feathers "Beautiful, haunting, and fierce, We Are the Fire is a riveting debut that will burn its way into your soul." --Kim Smejkal, author of Ink in the Blood "A well-paced fantasy steeped in folklore and alchemy. Deeply developed characters and a sharply written plot give We Are the Fire a dramatic intensity that readers will fall in love with. Perfect for fans of Cursed by Thomas Wheeler." --B. R. Myers, author of Rogue Princess"Set to fill the Ember in the Ashes-shaped void in your heart." --Culturess "The character development is so robust and real: both Oksana and Pran are fully-fleshed out people who I love and who infuriate me at the same time. I haven't read such a dynamic relationship in a long time--where nothing is black and white, both sides are valid, and the heartache is so real. SO GOOD!!!" --Daisy, reader on SwoonReads.com "WOW. ... The plot is fast-paced and exciting, and had me guessing 'HOLY CRAP WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN HOW ARE THEY GONNA GET OUT OF THIS' until the end. It was a fantastic read, and I cannot recommend it enough!!" --LindsayLHess, reader on SwoonReads.com "The writing is beautiful, and I love how much tension is packed in each chapter. I couldn't stop reading. It's one of those stories that has stayed with me long after reading it." --Kimberly, reader on SwoonReads.com
