The only thing we like more than supporting sea turtle rescue and marine life habitat restoration is supporting other companies who feel the same way.

Instructions for Burning the World...

"Ever since her mother died in a fiery car crash, Katie has played it safe. That changes when she and her friends discover stones that send them to a mysterious alternate dimension, and she finds herself a vessel for the fire powers of a boisterous, ramen-loving demigod named Nyth. Katie’s never let go of her survivor’s guilt, and putting fire in her hands brings it roaring back to the surface. But if she doesn’t channel Nyth’s fire to seal the rifts opening between dimensions, reality itself will crumble.

A YA contemporary hidden-world fantasy featuring the emotional heart of a courage-based YA novel and the compelling mystery of a hidden reality, Instructions for Burning the World draws upon themes of guilt, grief, friendship, self-forgiveness, and the true meaning of fear to create a world altogether new."
