Description
In a world split between “respectable” citizens and Omens—humans marked by a stain that can awaken monstrous forms—Sozo has learned to survive on the streets after her parents abandon her. Guided by the shadowy Esp, she discovers a rare gift: the ability to conceal her stain, making her a potential infiltrator for the Temple of Celestial Ichor and a contender in the deadly Decade Race of Stars, where the prize is a single wish for anything. As Sozo races through trials powered by wonder and danger, she must keep her monstrous side hidden while confronting the growing question of what her wish would truly cost. Blending Asian-inspired fantasy worldbuilding with fast-paced YA stakes, the story explores identity, belonging, and the ethics of power—especially when loyalty and self-determination collide. Yueh Yang’s debut delivers a vivid, character-driven adventure with a mythic edge and a compelling emotional core.
