The Ordeal of Windfire

A choice between loyalty to his master and the friend he loves. The fate of the world depends on it.

With his island besieged by the pirate armada, Jonah and his companions travel to the western deserts of Mysterion, seeking aid from the warlike Mezoramians. However, the fate of Jonah's people depends on Disagree, the pirate king's most steadfast servant. As the battle for Elder's Island reaches its climax, Disagree is given a choice between absolute obedience to his master and love for his friends. In the final battle, he must decide where his heart really belongs--in the ruthless world of the pirates, or with the people who listen to the Wind.

The Ordeal of Windfire is the third book in Richard Garcia Morgan's Young Adult Fantasy series, Tales from Mysterion. If you like swashbuckling stories featuring strong heroines and portal fantasies inspired by the wonders of the African continent, you'll love this non-stop action adventure.
