Solstice: Where The Sun Never Sets (Soltices)
For a thousand years, the sun has never moved.
Avery Quinn has spent her entire life beneath the endless daylight of the Brightlands, serving as a military scout along the forbidden western frontier. Beyond the Dusklands lies Night-a place she has never seen, inhabited by people she has been taught to fear.
Then a nine-year-old boy emerges from the darkness carrying a warning.
The Starved are coming.
The creatures of the Nightlands were never supposed to survive beneath the sun. But they are learning. Adapting. And the soldiers who have held them back for generations are running out of time.
When the boy's older brother, Dax Corvin, crosses into the Brightlands searching for him, Avery is forced into an uneasy alliance with a Nightland warrior who challenges everything she believes about the world. Dax knows the truth the Brightlands have forgotten: his people have spent centuries fighting behind ancient walls, protecting both sides of civilization from an enemy the Light barely knows exists.
But the Starved are changing in ways even Dax cannot explain.
They are speaking.
They know his name.
And when Avery follows Dax across the Dusklands and sees true night-and the stars-for the first time, their journey leads them to an ancient wall that recognizes the Corvin bloodline and awakens at Dax's touch. Beneath it lies evidence of a truth powerful enough to destroy everything both civilizations believe about Solstice.
The world did not simply stop turning.
Someone stopped it.
Now the walls are failing, the Starved are entering the Light, and thousands of Nightlanders are fleeing toward a civilization that may rather send them back to die than admit they were ever there. As Avery and Dax fight to keep both their peoples alive, distrust gives way to something neither of them expected-and something increasingly difficult to ignore.
Because the Starved aren't afraid of the endless sun anymore. Ancient defenses are waking. And for the first time in a thousand years, the boundary between Light and Night is beginning to change.
The sun was never supposed to move.
Now it has.
