In this captivating debut fantasy reminiscent of Robin McKinley, Elfreda Raughn, a bureaucrat, priestess, and practitioner of cannibalistic magic, finds herself compelled to betray the Order she was raised in, in order to choose her own fate. Pregnancy poses a dire threat to her life, and she will resort to any means necessary to avoid it. Despite her ability to endure the gruesome tasks of her day-to-day duties, the weight of preserving the Sisterhood of Aytriums magical bloodline fills her with horror. She yearns for escape, regardless of the cost.
One day, a mysterious faction approaches Elfreda with an offer of escape. As their spy, she gains access to the highest echelons of the Sisterhood, immersing herself in a world of opulent parties, subtle deceptions, and unexpected bloodshed. Star Eater serves as a phantasmagorical indictment of hereditary power, taking readers deep into a perilous and uncanny realm where even the most powerful women are forced to make sacrifices in order to have any choice at all.
Elfreda's journey is filled with treachery, self-discovery, and unexpected alliances. She must navigate a web of political intrigue, power struggles, and ancient magic, all while trying to protect those she cares about from the dangers that lurk within the Sisterhood. As she delves deeper into the mysteries of the Order, she uncovers a shocking truth that threatens to tear the world apart.
In the end, Elfreda must make a choice that will shape the course of her destiny and the future of the Sisterhood. She must decide whether to embrace her magic and her true self, or to sacrifice everything for the sake of the Order. Star Eater is a thrilling and thought-provoking debut that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the next installment in this captivating series.
