Frostfire

This is a literary fantasy about war, racial identity and first love. Frost has left her homeland to travel to the neighbouring country of Ruan in the hope of finding a deity she believes will rid her of a curse: at the sight of her own blood, a berserker rage in the form of a wolf overtakes her and kills everyone within reach. On her journey, Frost meets Luca and Arian, two members of the Ruan military force sworn to protect the country’s borders from neighbouring rebel fighters. Over the coming months, under Luca’s guidance, Frost learns to overcome the Wolf within. She also begins to fall in love with Luca – while Arian falls for her. This title is for fans of Tamora Pierce, Maggie Stiefvater and Cassandra Clare. It is a companion title to “Daughter of the Flames”. It tackles themes such as racial tension, prejudice, war, personal identity and first love.
