Narration To Books Fire Country (Country Saga #1)
In a changed world where the sky bleeds red, winter is hotter than hell and full of sandstorms, and summer's even hotter with raging fires that roam the desert-like country, the Heaters manage to survive, barely.Due to toxic air, life expectancies are so low the only way the tribe can survive is by forcing women to procreate when they turn sixteen and every three years thereafter. It is their duty as Bearers.
Fifteen-year-old Siena is a Youngling, soon to be a Bearer, when she starts hearing rumors of another tribe of all women, called the Wild Ones. They are known to kidnap Youngling girls before the Call, the ceremony in which Bearers are given a husband with whom to bear children with.
As the desert sands run out on her life's hourglass, Siena must uncover the truth about the Wild Ones while untangling the web of lies and deceit her father has masterfully spun.

Wow. Was that good! Why is this guy an Indie author? I'll try to be cohesive about this, but I'm still just sitting here absorbing it all. I'll just go over a few bullet points, since there are a lot of reviews for this one already. * World building - holy smokes. This must have been hard because it is EXTENSIVE. From the setting to the dialect, language, terminology, different groups, etc., I can't even imagine how much work went into this. The only thing that confused me about the dialect wasSpoiler FreeI rarely give five stars in a book. Divergent and Hunger Games (Yes, they got the same, I mean.) yes. "Aaaahhh. Fire Country is goooooood." Mr. David Estes, your narrative is stunning and very effective. Define effective - the fact that you write it clearly and the pace is good enough to make the readers, no doubt, turn the pages without thinking twice. This kind of dystopia actually burns deep inside me,like "burn, baby, burn baby. This girl is on fire..." type of feeling and I
It's been a few hours since I finished reading Fire Country and let me tell you, I've read several of David Estes books and his writing just keeps getting better and better. I was originally given this book by the author for an honest review, but half way through it was released to the public and I than outright bought it.The authors imagination, it makes me think that he'd be fun as all get out at a party, brought me right into the land of Fire Country. I laughed a few times, just from the
I discovered this book accidentally: one of my groups was voting for a BOTM, and Fire Country was among others on the list. I checked it out, and the blurb made this story seem both horrendous and morbidly fascinating. And just look at the very first paragraph of the book: THE LAW*****In its original form, as approved by the Greynote Council Article 56 A Bearer shall, upon reaching the appropriate age of sixteen years old, be Called to a man, no younger than eighteen years old, to Bear children,
Holy freaking wringer. Excuse me, David? I would like my heart back. This first book in the sister series to the Moon Dwellers was spot on. I fell in love with all the characters, even the crazy ones and odd ones (read Perry)Sienna is the reason for the saying it's not the size of the dog in a fight but the size of the fight in the dog. Sienna is small. She is teased by everyone, well everyone but Circ. When she reaches 16 she is to become a bearer to whomever is chosen for her. And our poor
I'm so relieved that I liked this book, the only other book that I have read from this author was The Moon Dwellers, which is a good book don't get me wrong but I'm not sure that it was for me. When I found out about the country series I was drawn in, although hesitant as it was a sister series to the Dwellers. But the good news is I liked this book!It took me quite a while to get into however, the first 50% of the book felt pretty slow and the dialect writing took a bit of getting used to, I
