Summary: This is a GREAT story!
Review: I read this book for the first time in 8th grade, when I was 12 years old, and I have been searching for it since then. I have read a lot of books during my life, but this one was my favorite by far. I got so deep into this story; it was so vivid and moving. I was so excited to finally see that other people had read it too! I was beginning to think I'd never find a place that had it; thank you Amazonbooks!!! To find out how good this book really is, you have to read it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: compelling adn fun to read
Review: I read this book for the first time in eighth grade and loved it. I was haunted by the characters, by the story, and by the world Jordan created. I read it for probably the fiftieth time again this year (I'm in college now) and was just as drawn in and enchanted. It's not a hard book to read, but it has some amazingly complicated ideas about morality, prejudice, and tradition. Read it, love it, tell everyone you know!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Winter of Fire is one of the best I've ever read
Review: I really loved this book. I randomly chose it at the library, and I've wanted to buy it ever since! Her struggle and the attitudes of others really made me upset at their treatment of Quelled. The ending was great because it showed how even a 'harsha' could accomplish her dreams.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a inpriation on my self
Review: I relly love this book it made me think about how our lives can change if we use up natural resources. I also think that it in courages you to go on and not to give up because who would have thougt that that girl was going to become firelord?

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: still one of my favorites
Review: I'm a twenty year-old college student and an avid fantasy reader. I first read this book when I was ten and its still one of my favorites. Elsha is one of the strongest and admirable heroines of all time, and Sherryl Jordan is one of the reasons I want to become an author myself.

Summary: great emotional appeal. . .
Review: In Elsha's futuristic Earth, an ecological disaster has changed the life of humans. She is in the unspeakably lower class of life, a Quelled slave to the black firestones and a corrupted religious faith. Only her higher calling to a compassionate Chosen, her visions, and her utterly defiant attitude will lead to the road of justice and relief not only to the Quelled, but to the Chosen as well. The road is difficult and full of prejudice and unjust hate, but Elsha finds several half-loves who touch her heart and help heal the anger and confusion. While she finds those who heal her heart, she finds one who can heal her completely. Heart and soul. The book Winter of Fire was definatly worth the read. I would reccommend the book to anyone. Elsha's love interests are very lifelike. It reminds those who are still searching for "the one" that there are many "halves" along the way. People who don't quite complete or aren't quite compatible. It gives those hope for the one that will complete you. It also reminds those who have already found the one and how they felt the minute they knew. The inexplicable joy. The book also has it's faults. The whole character of Zune and the battle was, like Kirkus Reviews said, awkwardly inserted. It could have been left out completely, with Elsha winning her inauguration through her own wit rather than a battle against an odd, "appeared-out-of-thin-air" foe that she didn't even fight. But don't get me wrong. The book has a lot of amazing insights to oppression and poverty. It also has a great deal of emotional love.
