Summary |
On a mysterious green planet regenerated by fire, vibrant communities live in harmony with both its strange ecosystem and each other—until the day imperialist forces arrive. Char and her family are among the nomadic Summer people of Germinal who tend to the rich biodiversity of their world through reciprocity and ritual. They must forever travel to stay ahead of the walls of fire that approach like clockwork, bringing with them both loss and renewal. The flamewalls divide their world into threes: three seasons and three ways of life, keeping them from the Spring and Winter people, about whom they must never ask. |
