Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Stars Above the Never Sea by Evelyn Flood, a luminous tale of magic, memory, and the echo of rebellion in a realm forever changed. Selene Amaris has spent a decade in chains, her wings clipped, her freedom stripped in the desolate red wastes of Terrosa. Now, locked below deck on a silent vessel bound for her homeland of Asteria, she returns not to family or fanfare, but to a world that died with the Great Shift, when sea swallowed sky in a flash of elemental fury.
Nothing remains but ash, water, and stars. Yet the call of home still pounds in her chest, a rhythm born of grief and defiance. Bound by loss, yet driven by the light that once was, Selene prepares to rise once more, whether to reclaim, to avenge, or to simply stand one final time in the ruins of what was.
Want to heighten the lyrical tone or infuse more surrealism? I’m on deck.
