Enter the enchanting and deadly world of Starside, where swords have magic and power isn't inherited - it's claimed, from No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Alex Aster.
Hundreds of years ago, a brutal war split a land in two. Starside is the realm of magic and immortals - the descendants of the gods, living in a power-rich paradise.
Stormside is where mortals fight for scraps of that magic.
Every fifty years, the gates between them open, and fifty challengers are allowed to journey across Starside on a deadly quest for magic that can heal, grant wealth or extend life. Everyone has their reasons for entering, but Aris has only one: vengeance against the gods who killed her family.
Winning one of the fifty spots on the quest won't be easy. An orphaned blacksmith's apprentice, Aris doesn't have the superior weapons of the heirs from the Great Houses.
But the greatest swords, ones that contain power, are not inherited or bought - they are claimed, by both sides. And when Aris claims a great sword, it makes her not just a real competitor... but a target.
Countless dangers await on Starside.
With a blade most would kill to take, Aris can't trust anyone. Especially not Harlan Raker, the merciless and mysterious knight who betrayed her years ago - and who may now be the key to her survival.
But Aris is hiding a secret tied to her family's death. And when it's revealed, not even the gods will be able to stop what's coming...
Starside : The unmissable adult romantasy debut from the bestselling author of the Lig
€14.90
Set in the titular realm of magic and immortals, Starside opens the first adult romantasy series from the bestselling author of the Lightlark Saga, as fearless mortal Aris arrives at the kingdom vowing vengeance against the deity who killed her family.
Every fifty years, fifty challengers are allowed to cross into Starside, a deadly realm filled with ancient magic, monstrous creatures and the chance to claim a powerful pool that can heal, enrich or extend life. Aris enters not for glory but for vengeance — a goddess burned her village and killed her family, and she intends to kill the gods themselves. But first she must survive the brutal Culling, where claiming a legendary sword makes her both a contender and a target.
Beyond the gates, Starside proves even more treacherous than legend, and Aris can trust no one — especially not Harlan Raker, the king’s guard who once betrayed her and now may be her only ally. As a rising threat terrifies even immortals and Aris’s hidden past comes to light, she discovers that her quest for vengeance is tied to a fate far larger than she ever imagined.
