Burning Bright by Tanya Huff
My rating: 2 out of 5 stars
Beth Aswith, a wizard, has one last conversation with her daughter Carlene before she dies and her daughter's flesh burns away as her true nature--a fire elemental--reasserts itself. Carlene finds her friend Alynne to help her contact other wizards so she can get a new body. The wizards, not happy to be contacted by a non-wizard or taking with one another, agree after everyone realize that Carlene is "too human" for a fire elemental and with Alynne's help is able to return Carlene to flesh.
This was a story that had some good potential, but there was a lot of skipping in chronology and some bad dialogue that just hurt things a lot.
