Stars, Hide Your Fires: A Young Adult Science Fiction Novel (Paperback)

Sienna stood up for what she believed to be right on her home world of Sanctum. She solved a murder, she saved the life of the young Satori representative Burke, and she experienced the sweet taste of freedom usually denied to those of her gender and station.

Only to have to leave Sanctum behind forever.

Now she's joined the Satori mission to the faraway planet of Arbor, where she hopes to make a new life for herself. But to be accepted as a full member of the mission in spite of her background and resistance to conforming, she has her work cut out for her.

In contrast to Sanctum, Arbor is a peaceful planet whose people are dedicated to alleviating suffering in their communities. They've even developed an innovative technology called Second Life that transforms certain lucky citizens into tree-like beings, extending their lifespans indefinitely.

In some ways Sienna fits in on Arbor better than she does among the Satori. But she soon discovers that even Arbor has its shadows, and she is once again forced to choose how much she'll sacrifice for the chance to effect change.

Author Amy Sundberg brings you the second book in the Satori Chronicles, an optimistic science fiction drama in which a young heroine struggles to find her own place in a complex and flawed universe.
