MICHAEL L. PRINTZ HONOR WINNERKIRKUS BEST OF THE YEARFrom 23yearold Smi debut novelist and reindeer owner Moa Backe stot, Fire From the Sky comes a queer comingofage story about heritage, family ties and ageold commitments to the past.ntes life has been steeped in Smi tradition. It is indisputable to him that he, an only child, will keep working with the reindeer. But there is something else too, something tugging at him: his feelings for his best friend Erik have changed, grown into something bigger. nte is so aware of Erik and his body in relation to his own; everything he does matters so much. What would people say if they knew? And how does Erik feel? And Eriks voice just the push of a button away. nte couldnt answer, could he? But how could he ignore it? Fire From the Sky will warm your heart as nte experiences the magical, soulcombusting feeling of first love.P R A I S E Fire From the Sky is a superb account of one boys struggle to be himself. stot does an exemplary job invoking Sami culture, and an especially good job of capturing Antes turbulent emotions, dramatically ratcheting up tension, as it is often agony for Ante to be around the friend hes so in love with. Much of Antes experience is universal, and empathic readers will hope urgently for his happiness. Booklist (starred) A rare and triumphant look at what it means for queerness to stay put, with all the messiness and pain that entails. . . . A fresh voice and a setting thats pure fire.
