Omschrijving

STARCHILD stole an ancient alien ship. HIS ENEMIES will hunt him endlessly to get it back. Because it can do one thing no other ship can...

* * *

Tyranny rules the galaxy.

TAIBEROS has crushed every hint of rebellion. Like the grip of his cybernetic hand, he maintains a relentless hold on the populace. The power he hates most is the psionic magic of THE SONG-a force so strong it flows out as light from the eyes. People with such powers are called RADIANCES, and Taiberos's Witch Hunters kidnap any that surface.

As the radiances slowly vanish, so does the galaxy's hope.

Till Kalhette Whitesun, one of the last radiances, gives a risky speech, denouncing Taiberos and the extermination of her kind. The message spreads across the galaxy like the light of a supernova. She becomes revered as the UNCROWNED QUEEN, the one with the power to finally unite the people.

And then doom falls-

In the form of the crushing hand of Taiberos. He captures Kalhette, sentencing her to the darkest dungeons and imminent death.

All hope is lost.

Until a lone pilot appears. A pilot who wants nothing to do with Kalhette or her rebellion yet who may in fact be the galaxy's last hope. A pilot whose ship, THE SPIRIT, was created by an ancient alien race. A pilot who stole that ship from Taiberos himself...

A renegade pilot named STARCHILD.

STARCHILD is an artisan book.

One author painstakingly crafted everything from the cover illustration to the final period. For readers who are sick of stories with thoughtless, cheap thrills, STARCHILD is a novel that both ENTERTAINS and ENLIGHTENS. If you value flawed heroines, deep villains, mind-blowing plots, and spectacular worldbuilding, then this is the adventure you've been waiting for.

The story dives deep into the minds of an UNFORGETTABLE CAST of lovable (and loathable) characters. The GALACTIC SETTING is exquisite, and it's based on actual scientific discoveries, with worlds like you've never imagined but which likely exist in our own galaxy. The marvels of the MAGIC SYSTEM will make you envious, and its basis in fact might have you personally testing whether it's real. The story itself is a FAST-PACED RIDE that will leave you hungry for more adventure, and luckily, the sequel is already here.

Get ready for a reading addiction like you HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED SINCE YOU WERE A KID.

The moment you open the book, you'll be transported away at lightspeed.

SO, ARE YOU READY to take an intergalactic leap?
