Bullied social outcast Nathan Hawkins has an unsettling superability that he’s long kept secret, the ability to create and control fire. Assigned a family history project in high school, he discovers his father may have been part of a group that researched a mysterious object that crashed into a nearby forest twenty years ago, an object called Starfall.
This revelation sends Nathan onto a new quest of discovery, one that leads him to a teenage cult that worships Starfall, led by another outcast possessing superpowers, one that wants vengeance against those that have wronged both him and Nathan.
Now Nathan has a choice, to either join the cult or oppose it.
“The author’s concise prose sets an unwavering pace, even as Nathan conducts his research and characters chat, bicker, and occasionally voice their regrets.… Relatable and superpowered youths lead a sublime cast and a riveting story.”
