Resumen del Editor

Other girls turn thirteen and sprout hair. Ashley sprouted wings. She learns to fly while adjusting to the idea of being an angel, but Ashley isn't your typical angel. She bursts into flames when upset and is irresistibly attracted to fires. Nuclear vessels draw her to the port. Reactors beckon to her like great ovens baking bread. Sapping their power is exhilarating and her appetite for energy is voracious. Light is energy in purest form. She was Daddy's "Little Star," but only now understood this to be literal. Ashley was born to shine, to command light. The Hebrew word for burner or shiner is seraph. There are other seraphim, but only one born on the Earth. Ashley is unique, a precious gift, a protector and champion. A nuclear warhead, volcano, and tidal wave—these are but practice, preparation for the approaching terror. When it arrives, Ashley will be ready and those relying on her will take heart. Pride comes before a fall and so it will be for the proud invaders. Admiral Raff wagered the survival of a world on his ability to control any situation. When faced with a foe that mistakes his most powerful weapon for a distress signal and antimatter for candy, the Admiral sees only failure. He must face death and a terrifying beast with four heads and six wings before discovering lasting peace.
