TO WONDER AND STARSHINE
“Jendia Gammon spins tales of magic, mystery, and beautiful weirdness! This collection shows the range and passion she brings to each of her stories.” —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of NecroTek: Cold War and Red Empire
“To Wonder and Starshine is a gorgeous tapestry of magical tales for the young (and young at heart!). With her trademark lyrical prose, deft plotting, and engaging characterization Jendia Gammon once again establishes herself as a master-storyteller, crafting a book to be cherished for generations. Highly recommended!” —D.K. (Danika) Stone, bestselling multi-genre author of the Waterton trilogy, Inescapable, All the Feels, and Switchback
From Nebula and BSFA Award finalist Jendia Gammon, To Wonder and Starshine is a charming collection of tales from fairylands to alternate realms, from Appalachia to deep space, and points in between.
Following her multi-award-nominated The Shadow Galaxy: A Collection of Short Stories and Poetry (written as J. Dianne Dotson), Gammon showcases fantasy and science fiction stories within this book. Themes include whimsy, love, grief, beauty, exploration, and friendship, whether between people, animals, robots, aliens, or fairies. This is Jendia Gammon’s homage to all the wonder tales that have shaped her life, whether real or imagined.
Within this collection, Gammon spins tales of a future, autumnal Appalachia with “The Dewdrop Bot and the Honey Fae.” Seaside memories glimmer with supernatural visitors n “A Swirl of Leaves and Sand” and “Upon the Gloaming Hour.” Robots, whether cantankerous or charming, make appearances in several stories, such as “Starry Eyes and Fireflies.” There are flashes of alternate cities, woodland enchantment, deep space adventures, and a little bit of homespun magic throughout.
