Wick is a young adult fantasy novel about fire, fear, and finding your place in a world that would rather see you burn than be different.

Seventeen-year-old Wystan hides a dangerous secret in the heat of a forge, where his sparks can pass for hammering steel. In Orriven, magic is outlawed and its wielders executed without mercy. When Wystan is caught unleashing fire, he is sent on a journey that brings him to a magical fortress, run by a council dedicated to preserving power from merciless mortals.

Torn between annihilation and execution, Wystan must choose: let his fire burn him alive, or let it burn the realm.
