A boy and fox go on a quest to find a wolf who has eaten all the stars in the sky before the Shadow Witch destroys the stars, removing good magic from the world forever. This compelling fantasy is perfect for fans of The Girl Who Drank the Moon and Nevermoor.
Long ago, the land of Ulv was filled with magic. But that was before a wolf ate all the Stars in the night sky, ridding the world of magic and allowing Shadow Creatures, beasts made of shadow and evil, to flourish.
Twelve-year-old Bo knows the stories but thinks the Stars and the wolf who ate them are nothing more than myths--until the day Bo's guardian, Mads, is attacked by a giant wolf straight from the legends. With his dying breath, Mads tells Bo that Ulv is in danger and the only way to prevent the Shadow Creatures from taking over is to return the Stars to the sky.
And so Bo--accompanied by his best friend, a fox called Nix, a girl named Selene whose magic is tied to the return of the Stars, and Tam, a bird-woman who has vowed to protect Bo at all costs--sets off on a quest to find the three magical keys that will release the Stars.
But Bo isn't the only one who wants the Stars, and the friends soon find themselves fleeing angry villagers, greedy merchants, and a vengeful wolf. And all the while, an evil witch lurks in the shadows and time is running out.
- An Unlikely Hero: Twelve-year-old Bo was abandoned as a baby. Now, with the help of his fox Nix, he is the only one who can save a world that has always feared him.
- A Legendary Quest: To bring back the light, Bo must find three magical keys before the evil Shadow Witch can claim them for herself.
- Magical Creatures: From the terrifying Shadow Creatures to Tam, the protective bird-woman, the land of Ulv is filled with wonder and danger.
- An Epic Friendship: Bo, Nix, the magical Selene, and the fierce Tam must learn to trust one another as they flee vengeful wolves on their journey.
