Produktbeschreibung
In a world where ancient dragons have returned to protect Earth, catastrophic wildfires rage across the Pacific Northwest, challenging everything humanity thinks it knows about fire management. Indigenous teenager Kyle's life changes forever when he discovers his connection to Mars, a powerful fire dragon, through a dragon scale that once belonged to his birth mother. As the military plans to bomb the region to create a firebreak-an action that would trigger devastating geological events-Kyle and Mars must find a way to save both nature and humanity. Joining forces with other young people bonded to dragons, Kyle becomes part of the Young Dragons movement, advocating for traditional environmental practices while exploring his own Indigenous heritage and cultural identity. But the challenge isn't just environmental. Kyle must navigate his brother's racism, uncover family secrets, and find his place between modern life and traditional wisdom. Meanwhile, the dragons face their own struggles: Mars's sacrifice to save humanity, Uranus's grief-fueled hatred of humans, and Venus's protection of a mysterious dragon tear that could change everything. This contemporary eco-fantasy masterfully weaves together environmental activism, Indigenous knowledge, and dragon mythology into a powerful story about family healing, cultural reconnection, and humanity's relationship with nature. Author Lawrence Nault creates a unique blend of fantasy and reality that speaks to current environmental challenges while offering hope for the future. Perfect for readers who enjoy climate fiction with a touch of magic, "Feeding The Fires" challenges us to reconsider our relationship with nature and traditional wisdom in an age of environmental crisis.
Autorenporträt
Lawrence Nault is a purpose-driven storyteller whose work spans speculative fiction, poetry, documentary film, and political commentary, all rooted in a deep reverence for the natural world and a steadfast belief in the power of words to provoke change. A self-described mountain hermit navigating the digital noise of the modern world, Nault brings a quiet yet unwavering voice to the forefront-one that stands firm in the face of injustice and dares to ask the questions others turn away from. His stories don't seek to escape the world but to engage with it-to peel back its layers, challenge its systems, and illuminate both its harsh realities and hidden beauty. Whether writing about the fragility of identity in an AI-shaped future, the evolving relationship between humanity and the natural world, or the quiet resilience found in the face of ecological upheaval, Nault draws from lived experience and a profound connection to the land. His poetry often dances between frost and fire, grappling with death, rebirth, memory, and the resilience of the human spirit. Grounded in the Badlands of Alberta and guided by a life lived close to the earth-and two loyal collies-Nault approaches writing as both a craft and a calling. He believes stories are seeds: some take root immediately, others lie dormant until the world is ready. Either way, he writes for those who listen closely-for readers who find strength in silence, meaning in the margins, and hope in the hardest of places.
