Synopsis

Return to the gritty medieval world of the Bear Highen in this thrilling high-fantasy follow-up to The Bear House!

The war for the throne is over. Aster, at fourteen, has defeated her uncle and taken the crown to become the High Queen of the Bear Highen. Peace is good, but things are still difficult—first love and first rule don’t mix easily—and when
Aster stumbles on a young girl living in a nest of dragons, matters become even more tangled.

Because this girl is not a girl at all. She is a living star, come down from her constellation on a mission both terrible and glorious. And there is no shortage of people who would use her astonishing powers for their own ends—rival kings,
rival friends, and even three deadly sisters from the plane of demons, one of whom has an offer Aster may find it difficult to refuse. …

This second book in the fiery, thrilling Bear House series is as intense, imaginative, and sprawling as the first, with cosmic stakes, a heartfelt love triangle, and worldending choices to make. Can the young bear queen survive?
