About This Book

A delicate fairy who tends violets loses her gossamer wings when boys trample her flower; after tending the wounded blooms she seeks counsel from fellow fairies and an owl, then undertakes a perilous journey to the Fire-King with a glowworm guide. In the fiery court she receives new wings made of flame and fastened with liquid gold, which remedy her loss but also unsettle her with their potent nature. The story follows her quest for restoration and touches on themes of compassion, resilience, and the uneasy bargains involved in accepting help from dangerous but powerful forces.
