About this ebook

The rhymes of Mother Goose meet A Wrinkle in Time in this sequel to A Sliver of Stardust, from Marissa Burt, the author of Storybound.

The Land of Nod used to be just a name in a nursery rhyme to Wren. But when she discovered the secret magic of stardust, she learned that some of those rhymes had secrets of their own—and the Land of Nod is real.

A few months ago, the evil Magician Boggen attempted to escape his exile on Nod and return to Earth. Wren stopped him, but Boggen is still out there. To save her world, Wren will travel farther than even she could have dreamed: to the heart of Nod itself, where she must defeat Boggen once and for all.

A fantastic adventure with a captivating world, inventive magic, and a dash of science, A Legend of Starfire is the perfect next read for fans of Madeleine L’Engle, John Stephens’s The Emerald Atlas, or Stefan Bachmann’s The Peculiar.


But saving a world is never easy, especially when your own magic is failing. Can an unlikely hero find the strength to face an ancient evil?


  • Portal Fantasy: Travel from our world to the Land of Nod, a place straight out of nursery rhymes where a secret war is brewing.
  • A Secret Magic System: Discover the power of stardust and the mysterious starfire Wren must learn to wield to save everyone she loves.
  • An Unlikely Hero: Join Wren, a girl struggling with her own unpredictable powers, as she’s forced to become the one person who can stop the evil Magician Boggen.
  • Magic Meets Science: A captivating blend of fantasy and sci-fi perfect for readers who love inventive worlds, magical quests, and a touch of science.
