Book excerpt: An astronomer "who writes like a poet" (Wall Street Journal) gives a sweeping, "beautifully written" (Nature) inquiry into how the night sky has shaped human history For as long as humans have lived, we have lived beneath the stars. But under the glow of today’s artificial lighting, we have lost the intimacy our ancestors once shared with the cosmos. In Starborn, cosmologist Roberto Trotta reveals how stargazing has shaped the course of human civilization. The stars have served as our timekeepers, our navigators, our muses—they were once even our gods. How radically different would we be, Trotta also asks, if our ancestors had looked up to the night sky and seen… nothing? He pairs the history of our starstruck species with a dramatic alternate version, a world without stars where our understanding of science, art, and ourselves would have been radically altered. Revealing the hidden connections between astronomy and civilization, Starborn summons us to the marvelous sight that awaits us on a dark, clear night—to lose ourselves in the immeasurable vastness above.

Book excerpt: This sequel to The Stars Are Ours! was first published in 1957 by the World Publishing Company.

Astra has a vibrant, intelligent species, as well as the ruins of a much older civilization. Norton weaves two stories together by alternating points of view with each chapter.

Cahokia recovers from a year of chaos following a near civil war and the god incarnate, Morning Star, has declared that his human sister Night Shadow Star and her slave Fire Cat must make a dangerous journey to far off Cofitachequi. For an old threat has arisen on the other side of the great eastern mountains - their brother, Walking Smoke, a madman who is convinced that he is the true deity destined to rule Cahokia. Night Shadow Star is also ruled by the Underworld Lord, Piasa, but this power dangles a chance of happiness in front of Night Shadow Star and Fire Cat – if they succeed with his agenda, they might become nameless, clanless, and worthless.

Book excerpt: BIRTH OF A DAMNATION Following a disastrous mission, the Wanderer spends five years as a total amnesiac. When she finally reports to Agency headquarters, she finds that her trusted contact Grimsdyke is unaccountably missing from his office - and that she's now classed as an enemy agent. Worse, the duplicitous Agency has learned all of her well-hidden weaknesses, and uses them to subdue and interrogate her. Has someone been telling her secrets? Was it Grimsdyke? During those five years, the Agency has secretly bioengineered a new species called the Starborn to fight the Night Spawn. The powers of darkness use the Starborns' appearance in human society to whip up worldwide demand for the gene-altering drug used in the new breed's creation. Unfortunately, there is a terrible and unforeseen side-effect to the drug's uncontrolled use - a side-effect that fits perfectly into the hellish plans of the Night Spawn. Complicating matters, the Wanderer has not yet regained her full memory. Without knowledge of her full powers, how can she possibly stem the worldwide apocalypse pitting humanity against its successors - both the ethereal Starborn and the hell-spawned monstrosities arising all over the earth?
