A woman's heart proves as infinite as the night sky in a breathtaking
fantasy by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Charlie N.
Holmberg.
When a star dies, a new one must be born.
The Sun God chooses the village of Endwever to provide a mortal womb.
The birthing of a star is always fatal for the mother, and Ceris Wenden,
who considers herself an outsider, sacrifices herself to secure her
family's honor and take control of her legacy. But after her star child
is born, Ceris does what no other star mother has: she survives. When
Ceris returns to Endwever, however, it's not nine months later--it's
seven hundred years later. Inexplicably displaced in time, Ceris is
determined to seek out her descendants.
Being a woman traveling alone brings its own challenges, until Ceris
encounters a mysterious--and desperate--godling. Ristriel is
incorporeal, a fugitive, a trickster, and the only being who can guide
Ceris safely to her destination. Now, as Ceris traverses realms both
mortal and beyond, her journey truly begins.
Together, pursued across the Earth and trespassing the heavens, Ceris
and Ristriel are on a path to illuminate the mysteries that bind them
and discover the secrets of the celestial world.
