Stardust

On a Dying Planet, Hope?



Their planet in its death throes, the Quadarti struggle to maintain the lives they've always known. The old order is destroyed. Families jostle for control while what remains of the Orange Army rebellion falls back. To the winners go the spoils.

Baraq Waganat is out for blood. He knows the most powerful Families' weaknesses and returns to Esgarat City hellbent to take them down. Tierra, his brother, is juggling problems. He'll do anything to restore his Family to the upper strata, but the game is complex, and time is short. Then there's his seething hatred of Baraq.

Torrance Black, the lone human on the planet, has a plan, but can he get to Esgarat City fast enough to see it through?

Against a world that's changing before their eyes. these stories crisscross and tangle to ask the only questions that matter:

How will they survive? And what will be left if they do?
