Ember and The Glacier

The Ember and the Glacierby Sebastian Paul Walter MurimiSafira can set the world on fire—literally. Her twin brother Zawadi can freeze it solid. Born under strange stars in rural Kenya, they've been called blessed, cursed, and everything in between. The drought is getting worse, the elders are whispering, and now the prophecy they never believed in has officially come for them.Exiled from their village, armed with nothing but cryptic heirlooms and very questionable directions, Safira and Zawadi must trek across a Kenya that's more magic than map—facing monsters in forgotten pools, riddles from giant talking birds, and visions of terrifying futures they might actually become.But the path to the Source—the only hope to restore balance—won't just test their powers. It will test who they are, and whether fire and ice can walk together without burning or breaking the world.Fast-paced, funny, and full of African myth and sibling banter, The Ember and the Glacier is a coming-of-age fantasy adventure about family, destiny, and finding your place when the elements themselves have chosen sides.
