Description: In this first full - length novel from the acclaimed Birdverse new love blossoms between an impatient starkeeper and a reclusive poet as they try together to save their island home. Nebula Locus and Ignyte finalist R. B. Lemberg (The Four Profound Weaves) has crafted a gorgeous tale of the inevitable transformations of communities and their worlds. The Unbalancing is rooted in the mystical cosmology neurodiversity and queerness that infuses Lemberg's lyrical prose which has invited glowing comparisons to N. K. Jemisin Patricia A. Mc Killip and Ursula K. Le Guin. Beneath the waters by the islands of Gelle - Geu a star sleeps restlessly. The celebrated new starkeeper Ranra Kekeri who is preoccupied by the increasing tremors confronts the problems left behind by her predecessor. Meanwhile the poet Erigra Lilun who merely wants to be left alone is repeatedly asked by their ancestor Semberi to take over the starkeeping helm. Semberi insists upon telling Lilun mysterious tales of the deliverance of the stars by the goddess Bird. When Ranra and Lilun meet sparks begin to fly. An unforeseen configuration of their magical deepnames illuminates the trouble under the tides. For Ranra and Lilun their story is just beginning; for the people of Gelle - Geu it may well be too late to save their home. About the Birdverse: The Birdverse is the creation of fantasy author R. B.
