Description: "Readers will be drawn to this first in a new series from King (The Hundredth Queen Series) for the extensive mythology and the quickly paced adventures. Despite her delicate ticker, Everley herself is anything but fragile: her acerbic wit and single-minded focus on avenging her family will endear her to readers eager for a heroine neither perfect nor nice." -- Booklist "Readers who enjoy plot-driven narratives will eagerly look forward to the second book in the series." -- Kirkus Reviews "An inherently engaging read from cover to cover, Emily R. King's Before the Broken Star is a riveting and original novel by an author with a natural flair for an entertaining narrative storytelling style." --Midwest Book Review "An exceptionally entertaining and epic story... Before The Broken Star will have its riveted readers looking eagerly toward the next installment of this original and wonderfully scripted novel." --Midwest Book Review "Filled with action, romance, and female friendships, this story is perfect for those looking for high seas adventure, mythical creatures, and a villain who is just as brutal as he is cunning. With masterful plotting and beautiful writing, Before the Broken Star is a high-concept idea wonderfully executed." --Tricia Levenseller, author of the Daughter of the Pirate King duology "An epic quest for revenge tests the limits of Everley's mysterious clock heart and her dauntless spirit in this wildly imaginative adventure story. A pulse-pounding read that gripped me on every page." --Kathryn Purdie, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Burning Glass
