Alan made a promise to his dying father to protect his mischievous little brother. But after his brother gets on the bad side of a notorious outlaw and his gang, Alan's small town is pulled into a cycle of violence and vengeance. All the while, Alan is discovering that he is manifesting the ability to control fire, an illegal ability in the realm. To save his brother, Alan can harvest his special power and fight the outlaws, but doing so may cause him to become an outlaw himself. The choice between stopping the violence and keeping his quiet life is further complicated as his newlywed wife discovers she is pregnant. But, as violence grips the town, the mayor and his associates plot to rid themselves of the violence they accidentally started, even if it means sacrificing the lives of two farm boys.
Full of gunfights, outlaws, gunslingers with magic powers, and shadowy secret societies, this weird west fantasy tale blends elements of a Spaghetti Western with elements of High Fantasy, while maintaining a story that's small in scope, but rich in character.
