Description:
From Alex Aster, the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of the Lightlark series, comes her first adult romantasy. Enter the world of Starside, where swords wield magic and power is not inherited... but claimed.

Everyone has their reasons for entering, but Aris has only one: vengeance. As a child, a goddess set fire to her village, killing her family. Aris isn't after the gods' magic she's going to kill them.

With a blade most would kill to claim, Aris can't trust anyone. Especially not Harlan Raker, th
