(4) YA When the Elders of his isolated island society are kidnapped by pirates, Thom joins the other teens in mounting a rescue even though he's the only islander without an elemental (water, fire, etc.) power. Despite the book's slow start and tepid romance, the intricate unraveling of the island's backstory and Thom's nature is an impressive feat of plotting.
