I waited a few days after reading Starchild to post this review because I wanted to do it justice. Oftentimes with science fiction novels, the reader is bombarded with general descriptions of the author's imagined world. That is not the case with Starchild. Instead of handing the reader a laundry list of stale descriptions, or talking at the reader, Ms. Taylor picks the reader up, and gently places her squarely in the story. The reader is at once transported to Sahas, and feels very much a part of the journey to the Valley of a Thousand Thoughts.
The protagonist in Starchild is a young girl, Mai, her traveling companions are her brother Long, and another boy, Akra. Masterfully told from different viewpoints, Starchild is neither a "boy" nor "girl" book, but rather an everyone book. Struggling readers will enjoy the simple truths of the characters, and more advanced readers will delight in the journey of Mai, Long, and Akra. A journey that introduces multifaceted characters, whom I hope will make an appearance in subsequent titles in The Starchild Series, because I'm already attached to them. Even the slightest of creatures was placed in Starchild with the greatest of skill, care, and thought.
Outstanding job, Ms. Taylor, and I look forward to continuing my journey through the series.
