Product Information

Her rough-and-tumble teammates and their fans push her limits in ways she never imagined, bringing Daya to big truths about love, loss, strength, and healing.

I would like please for her to send me a list of The Best Violin Performances for a Lady Who Doesn’t Know Anything about Music (full disclosure, it’s me) to Listen to on YouTube; because she really made me feel things about violins.

but it’s also awesome to see her at the start of what I hope is a long and prominent SFF career with Tor. She’s also queer, Asian, adopted, and treated as an exotic attraction by her peers, while the most important doors remain closed to her.Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls.

Yes, the rules are confusing and the sport seems to require the kind of teamwork and human interaction Daya generally avoids.Food, too, is a constant in Light from Uncommon Stars—we hear of bitter melon, noodles, kiwi boba, tea eggs, tangerines and eggplant parmigiana. But the gloriously surprising twist in this seemingly straight down the line biographical meet-cute is that Satomi is in a supernatural race against her line with her deal to deliver the souls of seven violin prodigies coming due; meet the deadline – she has sent six already to the gaping maws of hell – and her soul is safe, miss it and she is condemned to spending an eternity suffering for her artistic sins.

Yeah, that one threw me at first—but it’s the secret to the incredible richness of Light from Uncommon Stars.May is a fabulous month to celebrate all these books and authors, so if there are any missing from your bookshelf, please use the links below to rectify that!
