--Long and Short Reviews

A dystopian realm. Magic amulets. And a girl who didn't realize her questions could destroy it all.

Fifteen-year-old Iskra never questions the Prime Konamei's rules or her own bland life. But when a supposedly savage Risker rescues her from a bandit attack, the encounter shatters everything she believes about Riskers and their magic amulets. Shocked by the revelation, she confides in her friend Tavda. When Tavda disappears after publicly questioning what they've been taught, Iskra blames herself.

Racked with guilt, Iskra sets out to discover the truth. She defies the law and secretly visits the Riskers. Quickly, she grows enchanted with their free and fearless lives-and the handsome and captivating Xico.

The village ruler pressures her to cease all contact with the Riskers-or he'll make her disappear. She persists, not knowing that her actions could fulfill an ancient prophecy that foretells the end of the realm-and possibly, her own life.

An epic fantasy in a dystopian setting, Flight of the Spark explores overcoming fear and the question of when to choose freedom over safety.
