About this ebook

They say the world used to turn. They say that night would follow day in an endless dance. They say that dawn rose, dusk fell, and we worshiped both sun and stars.

That was a long time ago.

The dance has died. The world has fallen still. We float through the heavens, one half always in light, one half always in shadow. Like the moth of our forests, one wing white and the other black, we are torn.

My people are the fortunate. We live in daylight, blessed in the warmth of the sun. Yet across the line, the others lurk in eternal night, afraid... and alone in the dark.

I was born in the light. I was sent into darkness. This is my story.

    FIres on all cylinders for what I like in my SF&F reads. New to me author been planning to read forever.Fairly original,worldbuilding (yes, I know there have been other books with worlds in permanent day/night), great story, great characters .., just overall a good read. Two main characters are generally followed, one from day side and ine from night side. What lost this one a star for me is how uneven the age or maturity of the dayside characters were -- not to mention how stupidly gotta-get-stupidly-in-situations-to-protect-buddy-who-always-has-to-then-save-me actions and dialogue. Great for first in series. Ends with reader knowing there is more to come and an inkling of what, but not a cliffhanger -- just a good stopping point.

    I was not drawn in by the story or characters. It is not my kind of book.

    A mixed bag but overall, meh. Enjoyable descriptions of the night-side of the (tidally locked ?) world, but the characters are pretty simplistic even if they evolve somewhat over the course of the novel. And it's that kind of YA/YA-ish Fantasy that goes for epic scope but with a limited number of POV characters or detailed antagonists, which often results in one or two teenagers and their main allies or nemesis being everywhere when it matters and doing everything with a generous helping of convenient plot coincidences, as it does here.

    A good read and a fine start to a series.
