Alien foes, forbidden romance, and uneasy alliances await in the sequel to "Starglass," which #1 "New York Times "bestselling author Veronica Roth called a richly imagined, beautifully written book.
The "Asherah "has finally reached Zehava, the long-promised planet. There, Terra finds harsh conditions and a familiar foe Aleksandra Wolff, leader of her ship s rebel forces. As Terra and Aleksandra lock horns about how best to reach the alien city, they encounter violent beasts and dangerous hunters. It s only when they re taken to the city as prisoners that Terra finally discovers Vadix, the boy who has haunted her dreams. But Vadix has a dark past of his own, and Aleksandra is intent on using violence to lead their tiny band to freedom. When the rebel leader gets humanity expelled from the planet, it s up to Terra, with Vadix by her side, to unite her people and to forge an alliance with the alien hosts, who want nothing more than to see humanity gone forever."
