Kerosene by Chris Wooding

Set in a gritty urban landscape, the story follows Cal, a troubled teenager grappling with the chaos of his life, both at home and within himself. As he navigates the complexities of adolescence, Cal becomes increasingly drawn to the dangerous allure of fire, finding a sense of control and power in its destructive beauty. His fascination with flames becomes a metaphor for his internal struggles, leading him down a path of self-discovery and ultimately forcing him to confront the consequences of his actions. The narrative explores themes of identity, rebellion, and the search for meaning amidst turmoil.
