Wildfire will haunt readers long after they close the cover of this gripping, action-packed novel. Foreword Reviews
The Hotshots world is exotic and specialized and the entry she offers is stunning and rare. But it is the heart of this book you will most want to know. Here is an original and special voice.
Anthony Swofford, author of Jarhead
Mary Lowry’s Wildfire is one of those unique books that appear from time to time, a sort of Huck Finn meets Moby Dick, that is, if Huck was a spunky young woman and the white whale was a wildfire.
Craig Nova, author of All the Dead Yale Men
Mary Lowry’s Wildfire is absolutely riveting. A vivid, evocative, and emotionally complex journey through a dangerous and beautiful world.
Lou Berney, author of Gutshot Straight and The Road to Bobby Joe and Other Stories
Lowry paints a vivid portrait of life as a hotshot.... In such scenes of true-to-life suspense and well-rendered detail, it's easy to forget this is a novel and not a work of nonfiction. Indeed, the writing is strongest where it reveals the extreme physical endurance of and deep camaraderie that forms in a hotshot crew.
