Title and cover

2. Title and cover

Title

I believe the title has many meanings such as the discovery of fire, maybe the art of making fire with magic. But the title of the book gives us the curiosity of how warmth and heat can be associated with winter and how the story goes. Some may think of how this reflects the book because of the contrast of cold and hot which associates itself with ice and fire which appears alot in the book. I think this is a good title because it tells us how Elsha is the light in the darkness and the saviour for the people from winter.

Cover

I think this cover represents the divining power through the eye as the pupil is a flame, the colour surrounding the pupil is the golden haze of a flame which tells us the soul of this particular person is of fire and strife. Other meanings could be that of the fire lords sign, which is the same design but made of gold rather than the color of the iris. This is worn by his hand maids to show that they are to be respected and accepted of a high level in the community.
