THE STAR SEEKER
In 6 BCE, three Persian scholars followed a star expecting to find a new king. What they found broke one, destroyed another, and left the third with a purpose, but also with questions he still cannot answer.
Fifty years later, old and in hiding, Eudoxus lives in the mountains of Mauretania. He protects a rebel's family and ponders the meaning of his life.
It arrives as a twelve-year-old girl.
Amara has spent her life drowning in other people's emotions. When she unearths an ancient talisman, she finally gains the boundaries she has always craved. But the talisman's previous bearer was consumed by his hunger for power. And Amara is only beginning to discover what she herself hungers for.
As Roman patrols tighten and her brother walks toward violence, Amara must learn what the old scholar paid fifty years to understand: that some gifts cannot be grasped, only received. And that the hardest borders to defend are the ones inside yourself.
