Phoenix and Ashes (2004)

by Mercedes Lackey
(#4 in Elemental Masters)

In this dark and atmospheric rendition of the Cinderella fairy tale, an intelligent young Englishwoman is made into a virtual slave by her evil stepmother. Her only hope of rescue comes in the shape of a scarred World War I pilot of noble blood, whose own powers over the elements are about to be needed more than ever.'A dark tale full of the pain and devastation of war...and a couple of wounded protagonists worth routing for.' —Locus
