The Darkness Is Coming For The Magic in Queen Of Starlight, the New Fantasy Adventure from Molly M. Hammond
New York, NY – September 10, 2026 The stars gave her power. The darkness will give her a crown.
The magical world of Edira is calling readers back. Queen of Starlight, the new fantasy novel by Molly M. Hammond and sequel to the multi-award-winning Daughter of Starlight, will be released September 14, 2026, by The Wild Rose Press.
A year has passed since the evil wizard army was defeated, and the elves of Edira are finally beginning to prosper. But Luma, the Daughter of Starlight, cannot shake the feeling that something is wrong. Shadows move where light should reign. Whispers invade her thoughts. The peace everyone fought so hard to achieve suddenly feels dangerously temporary.
Then the darkness attacks.
This new enemy does more than threaten lives, it drains and corrupts magic itself. And Edira is not alone. Malicath, the home of the wizards and once the source of Edira’s greatest danger, is being consumed by the same mysterious force.
With both worlds facing destruction, old enemies must make an almost unthinkable choice: trust one another.
Luma and the elves enter into a fragile alliance with the wizards and embark on a desperate search for the Unseen Star, an ancient magical relic believed to possess the power to restore balance to both worlds. But the darkness is spreading, time is disappearing, and even Luma’s formidable starlight is beginning to fail her.
The deeper the search takes her, the more Luma comes to understand a dangerous truth: magic never gives without taking something in return.
And the price of saving two worlds may be more than she is prepared to pay.
Blending magical realms, ancient power, uneasy alliances, mystery, danger, and a heroine facing the consequences of the very gift that once helped save her world, Queen of Starlight expands the world introduced in Daughter of Starlight while raising the stakes for Luma and everyone depending on her.
Readers who enjoy fantasy adventures built around magical quests, elves and wizards, ancient relics, unlikely alliances, and battles between light and darkness will find themselves once again drawn into the world of Edira.
