Description
Where shadows whisper, and every debt demands blood.
Broken Star: A Dark Elf Story introduces readers to Ash, a former Hunter turned reluctant investigator in the sprawling city of Hope. Bound by a debt to the underworld figure known as Grandfather, Ash is pulled into a series of brutal murders—each more savage than the last. As nobles, guilds, and assassins circle in a dance of power and betrayal, Ash must rely on his wits, his daggers, and the moonlit gift of his people to uncover truths no one wants revealed.
Kim Kerr builds a grim, layered fantasy world where danger seeps from every cobbled street and snowy alleyway. Through Ash’s sharp eyes and weary voice, readers are drawn into a city that breathes corruption, thrives on vice, and punishes those who seek justice. Friends become enemies, debts become chains, and every clue only deepens the mystery.
Highlights include:
- A Dark Elf protagonist caught between human prejudice and criminal obligation.
- The brutal Dockside murders, shaking both nobles and the underworld.
- Grandfather’s manipulative grip and the rival Dance Master’s looming threat.
- Ash’s complex ties to allies like Golden and Trix, who blur the lines between loyalty and survival.
- A world of hunters, thieves, and investigators where truth is as dangerous as lies.
Tense, immersive, and edged with both brutality and wit, Broken Star launches readers into a fantasy-noir saga that proves even in the darkest places, there are still secrets worth dying for.
