Pran and Oksana--both taken from their homeland at a young age--only have each other to hold onto in this heartless place. <p/>Pran dreams of one day rebelling against their oppressors and destroying the empire; Oksana only dreams of returning home and creating a peaceful life for them both. <p/>When they discover the emperor has a new, more terrible mission than ever for their kind, Pran and Oksana vow to escape his tyranny once and for all. But their methods and ideals differ drastically, driving a wedge between them. Worse still, they both soon find that the only way to defeat the monsters that subjugated them may be to become monsters themselves. <p/><b>Praise for <i>We Are the Fire</i>: <br></b><br><b>At once brutal and tender</b>, this <b>heart-pounding</b> debut will make you ponder what it means to be monstrous--and what it costs to be human. --Joanna Ruth Meyer, author of <i>Echo North</i> and <i>Into the Heartless Wood</i> <p/><b>Set to fill the <i>Ember in the Ashes-</i>shaped void in your heart</b>. --<i>Culturess</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><b>Praise for <i>We Are the Fire</i>: <br></b><br><b>At once brutal and tender</b>, this <b>heart-pounding</b> debut will make you ponder what it means to be monstrous--and what it costs to be human. --Joanna Ruth Meyer, author of <i>Echo North</i> and <i>Into the Heartless Wood</i> <p/><b>Brutally monstrous and achingly human</b>, <i>We Are the Fire</i> is a tale that is sprawling and intimate, beautiful and grotesque.
