Description
Magic, danger, and adventure abound for messenger Karigan G’ladheon in the eighth book in Kristen Britain’s New York Times-bestselling Green Rider fantasy seriesAfter Sacoridia’s victory over Second Empire, Karigan G’ladheon’s life as a Green Rider should have settled into an ordinary routine. But her father’s abrupt departure to rescue Laren Mapstone, leader of the Green Riders and the woman he loves, from the far distant land of Varos, has left Clan G’ladheon’s business in show more disarray and Karigan’s hands full.
Even as Karigan tries to sort out the clan’s mess, a darker, more perilous crisis casts its shadows over her: Mornhavon the Black has reawakened. Moreover, he has freed two undead wraiths from their imprisoning tombs to hunt Karigan down and bring her to him in Blackveil Forest.
In a deadly confrontation with one of the wraiths amid the frivolity of the Harvest Ball, Karigan is left vulnerable to the intrigues of another old adversary she thought destroyed long ago. Haunted by the unceasing rhythm of the dance, she falls endlessly through the frigid dark of the heavens, and even Westrion, god of death, cannot save her.
King Zachary, bereft and hopeless, keeps vigil for her safe return. If they are not reunited, her loss may destroy him—and any chance Sacoridia has of overcoming Mornhavon’s dark designs. show less

Absolutely loved this book, and the series as a whole. I tore through this book over my Christmas break. I re-read the whole series this past fall in preparation for the new release and it reminded me of why I fell in love with it back in the day. Compelling characters, driving plot, and a cool magic system. Karigan keeps getting into difficult situations, and I have a feeling it's only going to keep getting harder for her as the series progresses.
First love reignited!
I remember where it all started, The Green Rider! I was so caught up in the adventure of it all. Now it’s over twenty-five years since I first read The Green Rider. Wow!
Then came Green Rider’s Call. Again a winner. Interestingly I don’t remember the series being touted as young adult reading matter. To me it was a simply a great series of fantasy novels to be enjoyed by all.
Some of the later novels I found I was not so invested in. That happens.
However Falling in a Sea of Stars takes me back to my initial celebrations of the Green Rider series. Fabulous!
A DAW ARC via NetGalley.
Many thanks to the author and publisher.
