In the Kingdom of the Stars, every subject is promised one wish—granted by the king himself. But with a deadly plague ravaging Astoria and refugees flooding its streets, the kingdom’s promises have become impossible to keep.
Prince Sterling saw the need for action long before his father, secretly creating the guild Hyperion to aid his people. Disguised as Guildmaster Orion, he uses the king’s stolen wish-granting amulet to heal and protect, gathering a loyal crew of misfits. But secrets never stay hidden for long.
Astrid, the first to pledge herself to Orion, senses there’s more to her leader than he lets on. As the plague worsens and tragedy strikes, she must uncover the truth about Orion’s identity—and the devastating cost of every wish.
