Synopsis

Everyone in the world of Eathriel knows that stars are really human-like beings with super-natural powers, created to guide and protect mankind. They also know the story about how one star rebelled and was cast out of the sky with his followers, becoming the dreaded dark stars. To most, that is all it is - a story. For two young peasant girls, it is about to become so much more. After escaping a mysterious attack on their village, Star and her adopted sister Winter are forced to strike out on their own after learning that Star possesses the unearthly ability to summon and manipulate light, and that she may be the star-child of an ancient prophecy. Is she the one who the dark ones are searching for? The answers Star and Winter seek lay over the mountains in a distant kingdom, where warriors and creatures of legend still dwell, fighting against the evil powers of the Dark One. Will Star let her light shine and become the Rising Star the prophecy foretold, or will the enemy succeed in darkening her? With danger at every turn, the girls are discovering that the battle between good and evil is more real and closer to home than they ever realized.

About the Author

Mariah Cyphers was born and raised on a farm in rural Minnesota, where she lives with her parents and younger brother. She enjoys horseback riding, particularly competing in barrel races and any other event involving speed. She has been riding and training her own horses since she was seven. In spite of her love for rodeo and western culture, her writing style leans toward medieval fantasy. Mariah has always liked to write stories, beginning when she was very young when she would create short stories about horses or other animals to go along with her drawings. She became hooked on fantasy when she discovered the Chronicles of Narnia and the Lord of the Rings at a young age. Although she has been writing for many years now, Rising Star is the first story she has attempted publishing. Mariah enjoys working on the farm and spending time with family and friends, and hopes to improve on both her barrel racing and writing endeavors as time goes on.
