USA TODAY Bestseller

Return to The Meridian with New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Roanhorse’s sequel to the most critically hailed epic fantasy of 2020 Black Sun—finalist for the Hugo, Nebula, Lambda, and Locus awards.

There are no tides more treacherous than those of the heart. —Teek saying

The great city of Tova is shattered. The sun is held within the smothering grip of the Crow God’s eclipse, but a comet that marks the death of a ruler and heralds the rise of a new order is imminent.

The Meridian: a land where magic has been codified and the worship of gods suppressed. How do you live when legends come to life, and the faith you had is rewarded?

As sea captain Xiala is swept up in the chaos and currents of change, she finds an unexpected ally in the former Priest of Knives. For the Clan of Matriarchs of Tova, tense alliances form as far-flung enemies gather and the war in the heavens is reflected upon the earth.

And for Serapio and Naranpa, both now living avatars, the struggle for free will and personhood in the face of destiny rages. How will Serapio stay human when he is steeped in prophecy and surrounded by those who desire only his power? Is there a future for Naranpa in a transformed Tova without her total destruction?

Welcome back to the fantasy series of the decade in Fevered Star—book two of Between Earth and Sky from one of the “Indigenous novelists reshaping North American science fiction, horror, and fantasy” (The New York Times) and the “epic voice of our continent and time” (Ken Liu, award-winning author of The Grace of Kings).

Great story!

This has been a very enjoyable series, so far. I am enjoying the diverse readers and how their voices match the different narratives. The story kept me very engaged. Can't wait till the next book.

Astounding, heartbreaking and inspiring

If you’re not listening to these books, start. Roanhorse weaves expertly the themes of war, loyalty, grief and love, light and dark, death and rebirth—all through the complex and expertly performed cast of compelling characters. The portrait of humanity painted against this landscape of magic, treaty and ancestral history is at once breathtaking and fresh as well as timelessly resonant and relevant to our experience of today. This is also technically one of the loveliest productions of an audiobook I have ever experienced. Great readers who are skilled, emotive and consistent. I can’t wait for the next installment!

exceptionally wonderful

this sequel to Black Sun is just as amazing as the first book.. this world is not something you have read about before. (I keep envisioning Chaco Canyon.) And you'll care, really care, about all the characters.

Brilliant!

Everything was brilliant! The story, the performers, EVERYTHING! My only disappointment is that it ended.

Totally worth your time and money

If you have not read book one, don’t start here but if you have this is an Amazing well voiced and acted book two. I await book three with the patience one needs to hear another amazing story

Fun

A nice maybe x of myths religions and a rangey geographic cultures. I hope there is another book coming. However, I prefer the books that focus on Diné stories.

wow!

Like no other book! Very original. Gorgeous words. A well woven story with many surprises. Thought-provoking but not overbearing.

Outstanding!

Just as good as the first one! A masterful weaving together of characters, with brilliant world building. I found myself breathless and riveted at multiple scenes. An absolutely flawless book!!

sad

I'm sad I now have to wait for the next book to come out.

love this story!

I've been thru book after book to find one that I can really get into and this series is it! the very beginning I was like wtf, but kept going and so glad I did!!!!
