Island Fire
Young Adult Book #1
In the very near future, on the tiny island of Lanai, teens from very different worlds must find a way to survive when technology is destroyed.
Bea and Sam, Hawaiian kids isolated by a paranoid, alcoholic father, are thrown together with orphaned big-city pickpocket Nick when a disaster fries all technology.
$3.99
Aided by a mysterious `*aumakua* dragon that may or may not be Bea’s imaginary friend, the kids face fire, plane crashes, gangs, pit bulls, thieves, sharks, hunger, thirst and abuse in a coming-of-age that explores a post-technology world where only the strong and connected survive.

What a fascinating story Author Toby Neal has crafted. Unlike her other mystery genre series, this ISLANDS Book 1 took us into the future with an eye on surviving not only climate issues, but also teens coping with family issues and mental health. Adding a helpful dragon from Hawaiian lore was a great, appreciated experience.
