Following a devastating attack, the ragtag remnants of an island whose residents all have elemental powers--their ancestors' attempt to help them survive post-apocalypse--land on a nearby refugee island with deadly secrets. The love triangle continues to drag in this sequel to Elemental, but the teens' constantly thwarted yearning to rebuild gives urgency to their trials and underscores John's expanding world-building.
