About this listen
Oxford, 1830.
London is a smouldering ruin.
Tension is rising between humans and fae.
And a red star burns overhead.
War has left the British empire broken and bleeding. The Industrial Revolution has driven the fae courts into the light. Oxford, now the capital, is a city on the brink, haunted by whispers of apocalypse.
Aria came to study magick under the brilliant Professor Ashcroft. But her hunger for knowledge is dangerous, and her power even more so. When attacks erupt across the city, Aria and Ashcroft are pulled into a conspiracy that could shatter the fragile peace between human and fae, and unleash a dark magick which could bring the country to its knees.
Aria's powers may be the kingdom's last hope... or its ruin.
The first in a dark, atmospheric trilogy for fans of Babel, Blood Over Bright Haven and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.©2027 Jamie Cass (P)2027 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
Critic Reviews
A great debut. Rich and imaginative. (Anthony Horowitz, Sunday Times bestselling author of the Alex Rider series and the Hawthorne & Horowitz series.)
A fine achievement of the imagination and storytelling. (Simon Scarrow, Sunday Times bestselling author of Under the Eagle, Revenge of Rome and A Death in Berlin.)
Effortlessly blending the historical and the fantastical, Starfall is an immersive dream of a read. I was completely swept away by Aria's resourcefulness and mettle, and drawn into the endlessly atmospheric and gritty England of the mid-nineteenth century, full of mythical creatures and dark magick. A standout start to a trilogy that left me eager for the next instalment. (Kalie Reid, author of The Sacred Space Between)
