The punishment for unauthorized births is death. Out of fear, SC keeps his strange abilities as his darkest secret.

SC ventures into a school of talented students to learn to fight, where he must learn to master his powers without revealing their true nature.

The Star Child, a tiny flame of vapor, invisible and timeless, watches the Earth from far, far away. He marvels at the blue swirls of the ocean and the green land, a bright spot turning through the darkness of space. He wants to go to this wondrous place, but he ponders: What will that life be like? "You will be plunged into Earth's river of time," his elders tell the Star Child. "There will be so much for you to learn and so much for you to feel—pleasure and fear, joy and disappointment, sadness and wonder." Through spare, artful text and intricate illustrations, Claire A.

It's now the year of our Lord, 2915. Human civilization having attained near perfection... and Womankind's very first starship, the S.E.A.S.S. StarChild, is about to disembark on its bachelor voyage to the stars. There it will encounter absolute Hell. A Hell that changed Human herstory for the very worst nearly 7,000 years before-threatening to do that very same thing YET AGAIN!!! Yet even so "StarChild" is more than just science fiction, just as much an adventure romance novel set in the future, a strong element of mystery added. Mostly a love story in the truest sense, the main focus of "StarChild" is on people and the Human element versus mere gadgetry and futuristic jargon. And with its powerful depiction of a better society "StarChild" could even be looked upon as a mistress blueprint for a much better society than that we know today, hope for a brighter future known as the "New Matriarchate"-the Tammyite Matriarchy. Depicted in a more intelligent, realistic, sophisticated, and sensitive manner than normally experienced in works of fiction involving matriarchal civilizations it is a time in which "history" has been replaced by "herstory," delving as well into our past as well as the future.

The inspiration for the urban fantasy series, Starchild’s Fire, we can find many of the characters featured in these works exploring this town and universe in the novels. Volume two in the slice of life series, we again go on adventures with the starchild, Val, as they once more explore the absolutely typical town they call home. Nothing strange going on in a hometown in the middle of nowhere. A place with less direct sunlight than a rainy day, and with a forest that contains creatures of myths. Plus the ocean remains a great location to dip your toes in the water. As long as you stay behind the net so knowledge-hungry mermaids don't drag you beyond the drop-off. Still a land of ordinary magic and monsters, the shapeshifter will meet a werehyena whose life they save and fight to not repay for such a friendly deed; befriend a kind immortal with an affection for jewels and living in an isolated cabin in the woods; and relax with intergalactic friends on a bench in the park on a quiet afternoon. But with a love of the tranquil life and making new acquaintances wherever they go, these are just another day for Val. A gentle smile always on their face as they’ve had for the last few decades no matter the situation. After all, aren’t all towns like this?

A fantastical journey through recovery as told by Starchild
"In the 1930s a girl in Mexico found two skulls and brought them to the U.S. One was a normal human, the other was something else. Since 1999, Lloyd Pye has coordinated the extensive scientific testing of both skulls. The Starchild Skull is a charmingly wry, addictively readable book chronicling Pye’s odyssey with the skulls."--From the publisher.
