Synopsis

Every challenge demands a hero. Every enemy, an adversary. Every secret, a revelation.

Jack Williams, our elemental protagonist, returns, learning the delicate dance of controlling the elements, and encountering a daunting reality:

Great power is a double-edged sword—one that wields immense responsibility and peril in equal measures.

The fiery nemesis, Pyro, is on the loose, his hunger for chaos growing with every conflagration he ignites. As the flames of destruction rise higher and the stakes intensify, Jack grapples with a hard truth: Defeating Pyro is beyond his power alone.

Lines blur as he aligns with the Special Protection Protocol (SPP)—his longtime rivals. United, they aim to extinguish Pyro's infernal rampage before it consumes more innocents and reveals the elemental truth to the world.

But can Jack place his trust in the very people he once vowed to defeat?

Could he become the pawn in their dangerous game, and worse, their ultimate weapon?

Na comemoração dos setenta anos de Irisópolis a população decide relembrar a história de origem da cidade ou, como eles chamam, a face obscura por trás do município.

A história é boa e os personagens também. Pena que o narrador seja prolixo demais e obcecado pela genitália dos moradores de Tocaia Grande.......more

Goodreads review by Paul on September 21, 2015

kroniek van een zondige stad. Je móet een tijdje op het platteland van Brazilie zijn geweest om de sfeer van dit boek helemaal te kunnen pakken. Ik heb die ervaring zelf niet. Wikipedia vermeldt de volgende zinsnede waar ik me wel in kan vinden na "Tocaia Grande" in de Nederlandse taal gelezen te heb......more
