THE WIND FEEDS THE FLAME,
THE FLAME BURNS THE WORLD OF MAN DOWN TO THE EARTH.
The Fire Elemental has risen and its followers, the Fire Caste, have
destroyed the planet. Humanity hangs on the cusp of extinction; their
only hope now lies with the troubled Wind Warrior, Xander Sirocco.
Xander has absorbed the power of the Wind and Water Elementals but at
great personal cost. Finding Sammy has been his anchor through the chaos
around him, but now he finds himself wondering if saving her is enough.
Sammy remains a prisoner of the Fire Elemental, her mind trapped, as the
dragon possesses her body. Her love for Xander keeps her going, but
will her passion be enough to stop the Elemental from killing Xander
once and for all?
Humanity’s last hope rests in Xander finding the Earth Elemental.
Claiming the power of the Earth is the last step before he can confront
the dragon holding Sammy hostage. Unfortunately, he’s not the only one
who knows the location of the Earth Elemental.
It’s a race against time between Xander and the dragon to claim the last
of the Elemental power and bring an end to a war that’s spanned
millennia.
Earth God is the exciting conclusion to the bestselling and award-winning World Aflame series.

Excerpt from Earth God by Jon Messenger:
“What if there was a previous dominant species that we replaced after they screwed it up?”
Jessica arched her eyebrows. “You’re not going to bring up the dinosaurs, are you?”
“Yes, the dinosaurs,
exactly! Think about it. The whole world started off with Pangaea, one
super continent where all the dinosaurs lived. Then, boom, all of this
sudden something happens and wipes them all out. Scientists keep
saying it was probably a meteor, but what if it wasn't? Think about
it. What would a meteor have done to the planet? Set it on fire?
Filled the sky with ash to choke out most other life? Doesn't that
sound exactly like something the Fire Elemental would do?”
“I’m impressed you
know about Pangaea. But it doesn't change the fact that if
I didn't know you better, I’d say you were a giant stoner.”
“The Earth Elemental
could have easily made Pangaea for the dinosaurs,” Sean continued as
though he hadn't heard her. “After they screwed it up somehow, the Fire
Elemental wipes them out, the Earth Elemental splits the continent, and
they start over, only this time with primitive mankind. It makes
sense.”
Jessica
pinched the bridge of his nose. “I want to tell you that none of that
makes sense, but we just held a conversation with an Easter Island head
before Xander become the embodiment of the Earth itself. Anything’s
possible at this point.”
“Do you think they ever tried a Xander before?”
Jessica paused. “A Xander?”
Sean
glanced away from the blond and stared across the ocean. “They must
have had Warriors for each of the elements. The fact that a
Velociraptor Fire Warrior is a pretty badass mental image
notwithstanding, do you think they tried this before? Creating someone
who can stop the cycle?”
“I don’t really know—“
“Because
they failed,” Sean said bluntly. He turned back toward his
girlfriend. “If they tried it, they failed because the dinosaurs were
wiped out. I just keep thinking that we’re not taking this seriously
enough, and I know that’s ironic coming from me. I keep worrying that
the Fire Elemental is just sitting back laughing right now, knowing that
it kicked the crap out of a Sarcosuchus Water Elemental once before and
is about to do the same to Xander.”
“I think by this
point we’re all taking this seriously,” Jessica said. “Just because
you’re joking doesn't mean you’re not; we've known each other long
enough to know it’s just your defense mechanism.”
They
sat in silence, watching the lapping waves and trying not to see the
lava pouring into the ocean not far away. It was peaceful, sitting on a
deserted island in the middle of the Pacific. It was easy to ignore
the fact that the world was coming to an end. Sean mentally noted
Easter Island as a place to visit, once this was all over.
Jessica chuckled softly, disrupting Sean’s musings. He turned toward her inquisitively. “What’s so funny?”
“Pterodactyl Wind Warriors,” she said.
For a moment, he
merely arched an eyebrow before he started snickering.
Sean couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of the thought. They both
laughed until their sides hurt. It felt good just to laugh for no
particular reason, to forget about the insanity of their lives for just a
moment.
