Editorial Review: Putting aside the personal chaos that has plagued her, rogue Weather Warden Joanne Baldwin must rally the remnants of the Weather Warden corps against a double threat-the Djinn who have broken free from Warden control, and a cranky Mother Earth who's about to unleash her full fury against the entire world.

Overall, this is a terrific book.
Firestorm features a kicking final 1/3, and an absorbing beginning 1/3. You just have to force yourself through the middle 100 pages, and if you're able to do that, you'll be glad you stuck with what is easily the least enjoyable of the Weather Warden series. There is action aplenty, magic everywhere, and a middling amount of sex in the pages. What isn't here as much is the humor, and there's way too much introspection in the middle third. But once ...

Rating: - Another good book in the series
You never know whats going to happen next in this series. I'm really glad they finally started getting good book covers, the first books had really ugly covers, so good thing my library had the 1st book or I would not have started this series, but now I'm hooked on this non-stop adventure.
Rating: - What a Blazingly Good Time
I have read all the books in this series. It has made me a big fan of Rachel Caine's Weather Warden series.

Sure and sometimes ... Read More
Rating: - Another excellent story in the series
Consistent and driven, a good book; it appears that Ms. Caine is beginning to deepen the characters while simplifying their relationships, as well as focusing to a greater degree on the struggle without granting sudden god-like powers to the protagonists.
The reintroduction of certain characters in an ambiguious way lends to the charm of this particular story, and clearly is an indication of returning elements as the plot unfolds in the next books.
A good read, and I'll be ... Read More
Rating: - It's Not Nice to Fool with Mother Nature! Best Weather Warden book yet
Why did I give Firestorm 5 stars? Why do I love it so much more than some of the other reviewers? First, I do not necessarily like my books soft, sappy soap operas that always have a 100% happy ending. I love adventure, adversity, excitement, humor, depth of character and a plot that encourages me to read the novel again and again to catch the nuances I missed the first time (and let's not forget sheer paranormal coolness - reading about the "magic" of the earth, fire and weather wardens is hair ...
