Descendants of the goddess Danu, the Star Children have lit the stars in the sky at night for countless millennia, but when the eldest goes rogue, he'll seek to shroud the world in darkness.
From the winner of the RONE Award for Best YA Book of 2019-faeries, gods and goddesses, and the magick of Ireland merge in this expansive new edition, the first book and the gateway to the enthralling Star Child series.
Kellen St. James hasn't exactly led a normal life. For starters, he's a genius with an uncanny memory who's earned a Yale degree at seventeen. Yet the weirdest thing about Kellen isn't even his brain. It's the girl who's been haunting his dreams every night for the past eleven years. The last thing he expects is for Calienta to show up in his kitchen and reveal he's tied up in a prophecy he knew nothing about-one that decrees he's supposed to save the world.
To make matters stranger, Calienta's brother, Cabhan, joins the Dark Side and aligns himself with Arawn, the evil Lord of Faerie. At Arawn's bidding, Cabhan kidnaps his own father, the Sun God, Lugh. Soon Kellen and Calienta find themselves in a race to save the deity. But as Kellen's connection to Calienta deepens, so does his fear: he's a writer, not a fighter. In the end, Kellen will have to fight Arawn with more than just his mind, else all the light from the world will be lost for eternity.
