Enna Burning is a fantasy novel by Shannon Hale, published in 2004 by Bloomsbury. It is the second book in Hale's Books of Bayern series, following The Goose Girl. The novel explores the story of Enna, who was first introduced as a secondary character in Goose Girl, as she learns the magical ability of manipulating the element of fire. Enna struggles to balance the fire's intense power over her with her desire to use her powers to save Bayern, her home country, from invasion. Its themes include friendship, deception, and love.[1] Reviews of Enna Burning mostly complimented the book's prose and character development. It received the 2004 AML Award for Young Adult Literature and has been published in eight languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian, Korean, and Vietnamese.[2]
