In the soot-stained city of Iron Haze, the sky is a forgotten memory. While the world stares at neon screens and metal streets, seventeen-year-old Elara is the only one who looks up. She is the only one who can hear them-the stars. ​But the stars aren't singing; they are whispering in terror as they vanish from the sky, one by one. ​When a grumpy, fading star named Pip crashes into her life, Elara discovers a devastating secret: stars are fueled by human dreams, and the world has stopped wishing. To save the sky from the cold grip of Baron Vane, the Shadow King who thrives on apathy, Elara must find the song that can reignite the universe. ​In a world that has grown silent, one girl's voice might be the only echo of hope left. ​A whimsical, musical journey about the courage to dream when the world is in the dark.
