About ELEMENTAL RUSH: Eighteen-year-old Adam
Gillman has trained for twelve years to earn a coveted spot on the Supreme
Elemental’s elite sentry squad. His brother, Felix, is the commander, but Adam
is still thrilled when his official assignment to serve Alexander Pederson comes.
He moves into nicer quarters and can stop getting up at four
a.m. to complete his mandated work out time. He still rises early though,
because he needs the solitude of early morning to practice his airmaking
Element—something that Adam has kept secret from everyone, even Felix, because
he can’t be both an Airmaker and a sentry.
When Alex assigns him to kill a group of rogue Elementals,
he balks at completing his mission for the first time. See, his only friend is
Isaiah Hawking, and he’s the Earthmover on the accused Council. When faced with
the prospect of killing him, Adam finds he can’t do it.
He’s well trained in assassination, but he thought he’d be
murdering bad guys—not innocents.
When Alex buries the Elemental Academy—and kills over one thousand
Elementals—in a fit of rage, Adam’s loyalty cracks. When he discovers that Alex
is really a woman, and his brother’s lover, he defects. He hops from city to
city, from Elemental school to Elemental school, always escaping only minutes
before Felix can embed a knife in his heart or a tsunami can make a classroom
his watery grave.
He tries to fight back, but he’s just one Airmaster with
exceptional tracking skills. He does his best to warn those in danger, but as
the last Elemental school goes up in flames, he knows he needs to get some real
firepower on his side.
ELEMENTAL RUSH is a prequel novella to the full-length
futuristic fantasy novel, ELEMENTAL HUNGER.

About ELEMENTAL HUNGER: The second installment in
the Elemental series, a new futuristic fantasy for young adults and new adults
from acclaimed author Elana Johnson, ELEMENTAL HUNGER is a full-length novel
that continues the story that began in ELEMENTAL RUSH, an Elemental novella.
Sixteen-year-old Gabriella Kilpatrick can shoot fire from
her hands, which would be great if she didn’t get blamed for a blazing inferno
that kills 17 schoolmates. When Gabby is commanded to Manifest her Element,
everyone knows what she is: a genetic abnormality. Not to mention guilty.
So she does two logical things to survive.
1. She runs.
2. She hacks off her hair to assume a new role—that of
“Gabe”, because in her world, only boys are Firemakers.
Not only does she have to act like a guy, she has to pretend
to know everything a Firemaker should know. When Gabby meets Airmaster Adam
Gillman, he believes her act and pledges to serve on “Gabe’s” Council. But Adam
has the mark of a sentry and spent years obeying Alex, the Supreme Elemental.
And Alex wants Gabby-the-genetic-freak dead and gone before she can gather the
magical protection of a full Council.
With Adam’s lies that sound like truths and rumors that Alex
isn’t really a Firemaker—or a man—Gabby sets out to charter a Council of her
own. In order to uncover the truth, Gabby will have to learn who she can trust,
how to control her own power, and most of all, how to lead a Council of
Elementals, most of whom have more control over their power than she does. If
she can’t, she’ll find herself just like those 17 schoolmates: burned and six
feet under.
Look for the third and final installment, ELEMENTAL RELEASE,
the final Elemental novella.

About ELEMENTAL RELEASE: Two months after
returning to the capital city of Tarpulin with a Council of his own, Airmaster
Adam Gillman is ready to start repairing the relationships in his life. Up
first: his Councilman and the girl he’d like to be more than friends with,
Gabriella Kilpatrick.
But first, he has to figure out how to be the Airmaster his
Firemaker needs. In order to do that, Adam attends Elemental training and
discovers that to truly command the air, he must first be in control of his
emotions. And in order to master those, he has to grieve for the loss of Hanai,
make amends with his brother, and earn the trust of Gabby.
Amidst all that, Adam must also learn how to grapple with
the jet stream, because a dangerous Airmaster is loose in Tarpulin. And Adam
will need to find his emotional center in order to work with the atmosphere and
defeat the threat.
