About this audiobook
Seventeen-year-old Aurelia “Rell” Gaines has spent years surviving the ache of her mother’s disappearance and the quiet weight of a city that never quite feels ordinary. But when the sky splits open above her neighborhood and ancient magic wakes beneath glass towers and subway tunnels, Rell discovers she is the last Star-Bound Heir—chosen to stand between her fractured city and a darkness determined to devour it. Guided by a silver-eyed boy made of star-matter, haunted by family secrets, and hunted by an enemy who wears power like a crown, Rell is pulled into a hidden world of myth, memory, and dangerous prophecy. To save her home, she must claim a legacy written in grief and light before the boundary between worlds collapses. But as the city unravels and the cost of truth grows sharper, Rell must decide what she is willing to sacrifice to protect the people she loves—without losing herself in the process.
