Review:
Season of Fire is book two in the Remnants series by Lisa Bergren. A struggle for the hearts and minds of the world continues between the Ailith, who seek to lead people to the Maker, and the emperor, Keallach-a rogue Ailith-and his dark forces who seek control over the people. Andriana, an empath, is caught in the middle as she uses the gifting the Maker gave her to help others-even Keallach-to seek the Maker. However, forces stronger than her own have the potential to undermine her gift unless she remembers to fully rely on the Maker. With the exception of life and death battles, the struggles encountered by the Ailith mirror the struggles of teens today. Learning to lean on God when life doesn't make sense, what to do with romantic feelings and actions when the time is not right, how to determine God's leading in life, how to know what's next, how to lead others to Jesus, and how to handle negative feelings are all a part of the Maker's journey for the Ailith. As Andriana and Ronan encounter situations that they can't control, they continue to learn to lean on the Maker. The plot moves along quickly with the Ailith as they find themselves in perilous situations in which they must fight or flee. The point of view switches back and forth between Ronan and Andriana, sprinkling additional tension throughout the book. Tumultuous circumstances cause Andriana to repeat variations of this theme: "No matter how it feels...you are never alone...Remember that." (p. 379) Kristina Wolcott, CLJ--Christian Library Journal
