AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
From Alex Aster, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Lightlark series, comes her first adult romantasy. Enter the world of Starside, where swords wield magic and power is not inherited...but claimed.
Hundreds of years ago, a brutal war split a land in two. Starside is the realm of magic and immortals-the descendants of the gods, living in a power-rich paradise. Stormside is where mortals fight for scraps of that magic.
Every fifty years, the gates between them open, and fifty challengers are allowed to journey across Starside on a deadly quest to access a pool of magic that can heal, grant wealth, or extend life. Everyone has their reasons for entering, but Aris has only one: vengeance. As a child, a goddess set fire to her village, killing her family. Aris isn't after the gods' magic-she's going to kill them.
First, she must survive the Culling, the king's deadly competition to choose his fifty challengers. An orphaned blacksmith's apprentice, Aris doesn't have the superior weapons of the heirs from the Great Houses. But the greatest swords-ones that contain power-are not inherited or bought, they are claimed, by both sides. And when Aris claims a great sword, it makes her not just a real competitor-but a target.
Getting past the gates is only the beginning. Starside is deadlier than it seems. If the ancient creatures, magic-wielding beasts, and bloodthirsty immortals weren't dangerous enough, a new peril has even immortals fearing what rises from the ground at night. With a blade most would kill to claim, Aris can't trust anyone. Especially not Harlan Raker, the merciless and mysterious king's guard who betrayed her years ago-and who may now be the key to her survival.
But Aris is hiding a secret tied to her family's death. And when it's revealed, not even the gods will be able to stop what's coming…

"Hate. Me. Harder."
"Starside" is Alex Asters first adult fantasy novel and I have literally no words for how good this book was. I would actually consider it as one of the best romantasy books I have read since "Fourth Wing" and "ACOTAR". The author throws you right into the story so that you are hooked from the beginning of chapter one. The worldbuilding happens as the story goes along which makes this book super fast-paced. It is very action packed but also full of emotions. Aris was a really strong FMC and I fell in love with her from the very beginning. The plottwist at the end of this also completely managed to shock me which has not happened in a very long time. I need book two immediately and it will be torture to wait until November when the second book comes out. Honestly a 6 star read for me! -

Highlight!
It’s been a long time since I read a book that entertained me this well. I literally inhaled it. Extremely fast paced and exciting and I loved the way Alex Aster described the world. I marveled with Aris at the beauty of Starside and held my breath whenever another danger came her way. Also the best Enemies to Lovers I've read in a long time. Hate.Me.Harder. -

"If they want me, they will have me bloody and broken, because I refuse to go down quietly."
Wow. Alex Aster has outdone herself with this book. The idea with the swords is unique and perfectly executed, the worldbuilding is elaborate and Aster has masterfully woven little secrets into the story that have you reading through the night in hopes of figuring them out. And don't even get me started on that plot twist! I loved the characters, loved the magic system and really, really loved every page of that book. I cant wait for "Stormside" which will be coming to us in November 2026. -

Awesome!!
Wow wow wow. Harlan Raker is the guy for me!! Ich hab Starside richtig geliebt und wollte eigentlich nicht das es so schnell endet.. Die Welt in die man eintaucht ist nicht kompliziert aufgebaut und man findet sich schnell zurecht. Zwar hab ich zwischendrin nicht wirklich verstanden was der Zweck der ganzen Mission ist, da ich seehr abgelenkt war vom männlichen Protagonisten, weil wow, die Spannung zwischen den beiden und das Knistern in der Luft war kaum auszuhalten!! Ich bin zwischen dem Buch und Hörbuch hin und her gesprungen, und da kann ich auch jedem das Hörbuch auch ans herzlegen. Es wird im Duett gesprochen und ist umso besser! Eine große Empfehlung, ich freue mich sehr auf Band 2!! -

Slowburn with a cherry on top
"Starside" probably isn't the best book to calm your nerves or your heart when it's beating like crazy, BUT it's the best new Romantasy release currently out there (I said what I said), so worth it! It basically has it all: intriguing world building, thrilling deathly-trials setting, interesting and really deep characters, plus an enemies-to-lovers-slowburn-romance that will live inside your head rent-free for a long time even after finishing the book. Being bored while reading this is also a thing that's definitely not happening, because there's always something going on, there's always new danger awaiting or forbidden romance sparking on the next page ...
