Malachi and Josie recruit 'teammates' to help save the islands from destruction and build a peaceful and harmonious relationship between the different factions. I loved the way the characters exist in close spiritual communion with elements such as wind, water and fire, and can manipulate these to harness their power. The inherent spirituality and mystical ethereality of the world portrayed reminded me of the Narnia series. Another highlight for me was the Spirit Animal Kimble, Josie's benevolent fox "familiar", which reminded me of the 'wit' in Robin Hobb's High Fantasy novels where humans can be supernaturally bonded to animals. I loved Kimble.

It also heavily promotes progressive society attitudes that offer alternatives to otherwise traditional values.
