Eighteen-year-old Adam Gillman has trained
for twelve years to earn a coveted spot on the Supreme Elemental’s elite sentry
squad. His brother, Felix, is the commander, but Adam is still thrilled when
his official assignment to serve Alexander Pederson comes.
He moves into nicer quarters and can stop
getting up at four a.m. to complete his mandated work out time. He still rises
early though, because he needs the solitude of early morning to practice his
airmaking Element—something that Adam has kept secret from everyone, even
Felix, because he can’t be both an Airmaker and a sentry.
When Alex assigns him to kill a group of
rogue Elementals, he balks at completing his mission for the first time. See,
his only friend is Isaiah Hawking, and he’s the Earthmover on the accused
Council. When faced with the prospect of killing him, Adam finds he can’t do
it.
He’s well trained in assassination, but he
thought he’d be murdering bad guys—not innocents.
When Alex buries the Elemental Academy—and
kills over one thousand Elementals—in a fit of rage, Adam’s loyalty cracks.
When he discovers that Alex is really a woman, and his brother’s lover, he
defects. He hops from city to city, from Elemental school to Elemental school,
always escaping only minutes before Felix can embed a knife in his heart or a
tsunami can make a classroom his watery grave.
He tries to fight back, but he’s just one
Airmaster with exceptional tracking skills. He does his best to warn those in
danger, but as the last Elemental school goes up in flames, he knows he needs
to get some real firepower on his side.

Sixteen-year-old Gabriella Kilpatrick can
shoot fire from her hands, which would be great if she didn’t get blamed for a
blazing inferno that kills 17 schoolmates. When Gabby is commanded to Manifest
her Element, everyone knows what she is: a genetic abnormality. Not to mention
guilty.
So she does two logical things to survive.
1. She runs.
2. She hacks off her hair to assume a new
role—that of “Gabe”, because in her world, only boys are Firemakers.
Not only does she have to act like a guy,
she has to pretend to know everything a Firemaker should know. When Gabby meets
Airmaster Adam Gillman, he believes her act and pledges to serve on “Gabe’s”
Council. But Adam has the mark of a sentry and spent years obeying Alex, the
Supreme Elemental. And Alex wants Gabby-the-genetic-freak dead and gone before
she can gather the magical protection of a full Council.

Two months after returning to the capital
city of Tarpulin with a Council of his own, Airmaster Adam Gillman is ready to
start repairing the relationships in his life. Up first: his Councilman and the
girl he’d like to be more than friends with, Gabriella Kilpatrick.
But first, he has to figure out how to be
the Airmaster his Firemaker needs. In order to do that, Adam attends Elemental
training and discovers that to truly command the air, he must first be in
control of his emotions. And in order to master those, he has to grieve for the
loss of Hanai, make amends with his brother, and earn the trust of Gabby.
Amidst all that, Adam must also learn how
to grapple with the jet stream, because a dangerous Airmaster is loose in
Tarpulin. And Adam will need to find his emotional center in order to work with
the atmosphere and defeat the threat.

Hi Jess,
DeleteThanks for the comment! I have read the novella Elemental Rush and really enjoyed it. I'm just over halfway through Elemental Hunger now and that's great too. So yes I'd definitely recommend this series based on what I have read.
