Flame Caller
World Aflame #2
by Jon Messenger
Goodreads blurb:
THE EARTH GIVES WAY TO THE SEA,
THE SEA BOWS BEFORE THE WIND,
THE WIND FEEDS THE FLAME,
THE FLAME BURNS THE WORLD OF MAN DOWN TO THE EARTH.
White Halls is no longer a sleepy little town. Its houses lie smoldering on
their foundations. The residents take refuge in their homes, afraid to leave.
And the town’s prodigal son and newest Wind Warrior, Xander Sirocco, has fled.
Xander survived the first assault on his life by the Flame Caste, but it’s at a
great personal cost. He and Sammy are left to bury his family and tend to his
grandfather, who lies in a coma.
With the weight of the world on his shoulders, he can’t help but feel the fight
against the Fire Caste is hopeless. It seems that way, that is, until he learns
of a secret race of Elementals, embodiments of the elemental powers that the
different castes wield. With the power of the Elementals comes a chance to save
not just the Wind Warriors and Sammy, but the world itself.
Emboldened, he sets off to find the Wind Elemental and with it, the hope for
his survival. Too bad no one has seen the Wind Elemental in generations and now
thinks she’s just a myth. As he quickly learns, however, the Fire Elemental
isn’t a myth. It’s real and it has a secret plan for his girlfriend.
And it won’t stop until Xander is dead.

My Thoughts - 5 out of
5 unicorns - I loved it!!!
***Received this ebook from
Clean Teen Publishing for an honest review
Okay
I mentioned this before, but the cover on this book is awesome. It works and attracts you to the book. I love everything about it!! Marya rocks at
making covers for Clean Teen!!
Jon
tells us a fabulous story. He has a way
with words that you feel that you are right there with the characters.
Xander
is a great hero though I did want to slap Xander a few times when he was having
a pity party to snap him out of it and was mad at him a time or two, but I’m
not telling you why because it would spoil the adventure for you.
Xander’s
friends Sammy, Sean, and Jessica are still integral parts of his life, but
everyone is having a rough go in this book.
The Fire Caste is causing havoc and turmoil for everyone. Xander feels the pressure from everyone to
save humanity.
I
have no idea where the story is going which is frustrating but awesome at the
same time. The ending was awesome and
infuriating all at the same time which again I won’t tell you why because it
would spoil your adventure. The book was
over much too quickly, and now I’m in another holding pattern because I want
book 3!! Jon, please hurry, I gots to
know what happens next!!
If
you read Wind Warrior, you have to read this one too! And to all my friends out there who love
books about elemental powers who haven’t read Jon’s books yet, what are you
waiting for!!
I
highly recommend this series to anyone who loves a good adventure story!!
