My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Summary from GoodReads
Frozen meets Mad Max in this epic teen fantasy duology bursting with star-crossed romance, immortal heroines, and elemental magic, perfect for fans of Furyborn.
Generations of twin goddesses have long ruled Aeon. But seventeen years ago, one sister’s betrayal defied an ancient prophecy and split their world in two. The planet ceased to spin, and a Great Abyss now divides two realms: one cloaked in perpetual night, the other scorched by an unrelenting sun.
While one sister rules Aranth—a frozen city surrounded by a storm-wracked sea —her twin inhabits the sand-locked Golden City. Each goddess has raised a daughter, and each keeps her own secrets about her sister’s betrayal.
But when shadowy forces begin to call their daughters, Odessa and Haidee, back to the site of the Breaking, the two young goddesses —along with a powerful healer from Aranth, and a mouthy desert scavenger —set out on separate journeys across treacherous wastelands, desperate to heal their broken world. No matter the sacrifice it demands.

REVIEW
I received an e-ARC from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
This was the first book I read by this author and I have to say that I enjoyed the dual perspectives of the worlds, the amazing lore, and mythology which inspired this book as also the characters. There are love and friendship, family and secrets. And while the lost star is about the pace, which felt too slow for me, it picked up quickly and offered a great story.
