Rollstar - E-book - ePub

The ancient kingdoms of The Wheel are lit not by a sun, but by rollstars, great ovals of light that rotate around the hub in the sky. When they start going out, Sahaar's world will never be the same. The little kingdom ruled by her grandmother is thrown into chaos: the ailing queen is overthrown in a coup and Sahaar is forced to run for her life. With her pet fox as her only companion, Sahaar follows the directions she receives in a mysterious message and travels to a location far outside the kingdom.
There she meets Izumi, a girl with porcelain skin who has been asleep for hundreds of years. Izumi is a synthetic person, the product of technology that to Sahaar is like magic. Pursued by bounty hunters and attacked by crazy machines who want to 'clean' her, Sahaar and her friends must journey beyond the boundaries of The Wheel and uncover the secret of the dying rollstars before the world descends into darkness forever.
