The explosive finale to the phenomenal Winterkill trilogy will not dissapoint as Kate A. Boorman throws us back into the dangerous thick of it.
From the blurb;
'I can't bring myself to give voice to what people have been whispering for weeks - since before we arrived. The remedy no longer protects us.
'Emmeline has finally made it to the saftey of Matisa's settlement. But trouble has followed them. The sickness that the Healing Circle has cured for so long is killing people again. And Matisa's people can't afford any weakness. The Dominion are coming and a fierce battle is on the horizon...
'Emmeline must choose: save her people and risk sacrificing those she loves, or face losing everything.'
Darkthaw left us holding back tears, but Heartfire will leave readers burning. Throwing us back into the heart of a world plundered and dying Boorman takes no prisoners with this triumphant finale, bringing all the strength out of main character Emmeline that has been building throughout the sereis.
Hinging around a battle for fertile land, Hearfire is packed with the gory action sequences Boorman has a talent for and laced with the passions and conflict love and friendships create.
Torn between her convictions and her heart Emmeline is forced to face the biggest challanges she has yet, which is a feat considering everything she has already been through, and readers will be delighted with the strength Boorman pours into her characters as they make their final stands.
We give Heartfire four stars
