Katerina  Kondrenko Thank you so much for your answer and forgive me please for mistake in your name (it's Elise and not Elisa (shame on me).

I got the tricky thing of Fire Falling, that's why I translated it to Russian as "desire\longing\yearning of Fire' which is 'влечение огня'. Just not to give away spoilers in the title.

It's hard to follow word-play when it comes to different languages. I see how fitting a title is, how dual the meaning is, but there wouldn't be the same word-combination in Russian or vice verse. So I'd love to offer Russian readers non-spoiler part of tricky name) And I love how every title contains an element!

So far I translated Earth's End as 'Край Земли' or The Edge of Earth) And it's grate that this variant describes one of the title's meanings) What do you think? Does it fit enough?)

Thank you again! For your talent and for your answer)
