Synopsis

From Marissa Burt, author of Storybound, comes a richly imagined middle grade fantasy. Full of magic and mystery, A Sliver of Stardust is the perfect adventure for fans of A Wrinkle in Time or The Emerald Atlas.

Wren Matthews thought she’d outgrown nursery rhymes a long time ago. But that was before she knew that songs of twinkling little stars and four-and-twenty blackbirds were the key to an ancient, hidden magic.

Wren’s discovery catapults her into a world of buried secrets, strange dreams, and a mountain fortress under an aurora-filled sky. But just as she starts to master her unique abilities, her new world begins to crumble around her . . . and only she can save it.

• A Secret Society of Fiddlers: Discover an ancient order of magic-wielders who have lived hidden among us for centuries, protecting the world’s most powerful secrets.
• Rivals to Friends: Wren thought her biggest challenge was her academic rival, Simon. Now they are fellow apprentices who must learn to trust each other to survive.
• Hidden Magic: Enter a world of stardust, magical falcons, and powerful spells woven from the very nursery rhymes you thought you knew.
• An Epic Fantasy Adventure: From a Science Olympiad to a crumbling mountain fortress, join Wren on a quest to master her powers and save a world she’s just discovered.
