Star Wars: Eyes Like Stars

A Star Wars Romance Novel

De: Ashley Poston

Narrado por: Kristen Sieh

This first ever Star Wars YA romance from New York Times bestselling author Ashley Poston features all-new characters (plus cameos!), a magnetic attraction, a mysterious artifact, and the fearsome First Order.

Ardent Quay has spent her entire life on her family’s tour ship, the Starfarer, finding comfort in the predictable journeys. But everything changes when a planetside trip to find a rare installment of her favorite romance serial puts her on a collision course with a fast-talking Wild Spacer on the run from the First Order.

Sian has black eyes speckled with stars and represents everything Ardent has never experienced: intrigue, danger, uncertainty—and attraction. He convinces her to let him stow away on the Starfarer so he can return a precious artifact to its homeworld, in the kind of adventure she’s only ever read about.

But with the First Order hot on their tail, the danger is all too real. This is a terrible time to take a tour of the galaxy. And an even worse time to fall in love.

Reseñas de la Crítica

★ "This is a fun, romance-focused entry into the “Star Wars” canon that expertly utilizes modern YA tropes. It is a necessary addition for libraries with “Star Wars” fans and will likely draw romance readers into the galaxy far, far away for the first time." —School Library Journal, starred review

Interesting and well written but not required reading

Great teen romance set in a galaxy far far away. Coming of age story that shines a light on the growing horrors of the first order in a fun and imaginative way. The author really finds a way to make the galaxy feel more real by providing a perfect mix of slice of life and epic adventure in this beautifully written novel.

Hope and adventure!

You don’t have to know anything about Star Wars to enjoy this! It was a wonderful time and the narrator did a phenomenal job!

Great!

Love a romance with a Star Wars setting!! I love Poston’s writing and she didn’t disappoint in this setting either.

The narration was great, too. I’ll definitely be rereading this one.

A Great Shift from the Usual

A Star Wars romance novel? What more could you ask for! It has action and adventure, sure, it's Star Wars, but what truly made this book shine is the way in which it weaved the development of the budding relationship into each and every twist and turn in the adventure. Additionally, Kristen Sieh blew the narration out of the park on this one, providing a great counterpoint in the voice of the love interest to truly bring it home.

Star Wars: Eyes Like Stars

"A charming young adult romance featuring all-new characters (plus cameos!), a magnetic attraction, a mysterious artifact, and the fearsome First Order from New York Times bestseller, Ashley Poston.

When eighteen-year-old Ardent Quay saves the life of a fast-talking Wild Spacer on Coruscant, she doesn’t expect a thank you—and she certainly doesn’t expect him to stowaway on her father’s star tour ship. Yet here he is, taking up residence in the ship’s pantry and eating all her favorite snacks. He’s mysterious and coy and strange, with silver hair and eyes speckled with stars, and no matter how much she tries to pull away, she can’t. She should report him to her father, but the stowaway soon convinces her that there’s a nefarious plot at play on this ship, one that has the lives of everyone onboard at stake. With the galaxy on the brink of war and the First Order breathing down their necks, Ardent and her stowaway must ferry a precious artifact to its homeworld without getting caught—or worse, killed.

This is, actually, a terrible time to take a tour of the galaxy. And an even worse time to fall in love."
