About this deal

That's what happens to those who don't come prepared,' said Razvani 'But now, you must submit yourself as they did. Walk into my flames, Lila! You have come for the royal sulphur? Receive it from my hands!"

And then into the heart of the light and the fire and the noise leapt Razvani himself, the great Fire-Fiend, whose body was a mass of flame and whose face a mask of scorching light. Thousands of fire imps scattered as he landed, and even the blazing flames bowed down to him. And so did Lila. In a voice like the roar of a forest fire, Razvani spoke. Poor Lila, she must be terrified! In this book, I have to admit, I absolutely love Lila. She is such a strong person. She's determined to become a firework maker. And even when everything is going against her, she doesn't give up. And that's what I found inspiring about this story. That, actually, if you put your mind to it, you never give up, you're determined and brave, you can achieve anything. Lila goes in search of Royal Sulphur from Mount Merapi, as all Firework-Makers must, and comes face to face with Razvani the Fire-Fiend. By what right have you come to my grotto?!' She swallowed hard. It was difficult to breathe, because she seemed to be taking fire into her lungs as well as the air. 'I want to be a firework maker' she managed to say. He laughed a great laugh. 'YOU? Never!"
