Description
'Book of Fire is dystopian with a difference...This was such an exciting read...' - Katharine Corr, co-author of The Witch's Kiss Trilogy
Life outside the domes is not possible. At least that's what Insiders are told.
Twins Eli and Talia shouldn't exist. They're Outsiders.
Their home is a secret. Their lives are a secret. Arafel is a secret.
An unexpected forest raid forces Talia into a desperate mission to rescue her family while protecting the sacred Book of Arafel from those who would use it as a weapon. As Talia and her life long friend Max enter the dome, she makes some unexpected discoveries, and allies, in the form of rugged Insider August, that will change the course of her life forever.
She'll stop at nothing to save her family but will she sacrifice her heart in the process?
The Fire Sermon meets Gladiator in this brilliant YA debut.
