Sinopsis

Lyra. Lucy. Percy. Once in a generation, a hero emerges whose story enthralls readers worldwide.

Fireborn is an epic quest, perfect for fans of the His Dark Materials and The School for Good and Evil series, that will spin readers into a magical world like no other—and introduce them to an unforgettable new heroine named Twelve.

Ember is full of monsters.

Twelve gave up her name and identity to train in the art of hunting them—so she says. The truth is much more deadly: she trains to take revenge on those who took her family from her.

But when Twelve’s new home is attacked, she’ll find herself on an unexpected journey, where her hidden past is inescapably intertwined with her destiny—and the very fate of her world.

Check out my 'reading middle grade for a magical week off' reading vlog where I talk about Fireborn: https://youtu.be/qDV2nQ5me58

A very promising start of a series that is filled with excitement, adventure and darkness. There is so much to love: a protagonist who is strong and determined, side characters who are along for the ride are also awesome, and a constantly-moving plot. The world opens up and expands more as the book goes on. I genuinely think it's hard to get bored while reading this book, it was just non-stop.

I do love darkness in a middle grade, though I do think the book is probably a little too bleak. I would have loved some more lightness thrown in there to make it a more magical world, and it was easy to also feel disconnected from it because of that. I felt mainly that I was on the outside looking in rather than being immersed in it, but having said that, I'm excited to see where the story goes in the future and what the rest of the world has to offer.2021-reads middle-grade51 s preoccupiedbybooks482 1,448

My son and I loved this middle-grade debut fantasy, full of friendships, magical creatures and a quest to save a fellow hunter! It was well written with some great figurative language that I could appreciate and discuss with my 9 year old.

A hot headed, fierce yet impulsive warrior, Twelve (who gave up her name to train as a hunter after her family were murdered) was a great main character to follow. I'd been looking for a book with a female lead to read with my son, and this was a great one. Twelve had been through so much, that she was full of rage and felt alone. I loved the other characters too; Seven, Six, Five and Dog. They had some great banter and some action packed adventures!

The setting was magical, and so richly described. The forest, the mountains, the damp were all so vividly imagined, and drew us in. The world building was amazing.

Quite dark and dangerous for a middle-grade book, lFirebornwas fast paced and full of adventure! I loved the messages about working together as a team, perserverence, forgiveness and pushing through your differences!

My son loved the action, the bravery, the friendships, and cannot wait until the next installment in October! Let's hope our library gets that one in too!
