The Starlight Watchmaker

By Wren James

Book Overview

A super-readable and accessible YA sci-fi novel.

At an elite academy where the wealthiest students from across the galaxy come to be educated, Hugo works as a watchmaker in a dusty attic room. But he is one of the lucky ones. Many androids like him are without jobs or homes. A privileged student like Dorian could never understand their struggle--or so Hugo thinks when the pompous duke comes knocking at his door. But when Hugo and Dorian uncover a potential terrorist threat, android and student must overcome their differences and work together to track down the culprit before the whole academy is placed in danger.
