"A god will die young or they will die mad." Eight hundred years ago, stars fell from the sky and granted divine power to those who caught them. The small, poor country of Antaram has lost its Aspect of Divinity and is turning to ever more desperate measures to preserve itself. A runaway boy on the road to Antaram finds himself tangled in the fates of gods, queens and monsters as the age of stars comes to its violent end. Gaslamp fantasy with superpower mechanics, character-driven conflict, romances of all orientations, pterosaurs, lore for miles, and plot twists planned extremely far in advance.
