There, in a cave glowing with magic, he meets Eldrin: a powerful shaman with eyes made of swirling, living stardust.

To answer it, Zola must captain her great-grandmother’s ship, a magical vessel woven from moonlight and twine. With jars of cinnamon-scented starlight for fuel, she leaps into the inky black.
