Description

Stardust, a fantasy fairy tale, tells the story of a young man's quest for a fallen star, a young woman living in the land of Faerie. In the sleepy English countryside at the dawn of the Victorian Era, a young man named Tristran Thorn loses his heart to a beautiful woman, but she is distant and cold, as distant as the star he sees fall from the sky.

Tristran vows to retrieve the fallen star and deliver it to his beloved, but he is not the only one seeking the heavenly jewel. There are those for whom it promises youth and beauty, the key to a kingdom, and the rejuvenation of dark, dormant magics. Tristran must keep his wits about him to succeed and survive in this secret place where fallen stars come in many guises.

Neil Gaiman's novel, Stardust, is a tale that will shine in the heart and memory far beyond the turning of its final page, with its unique literary magic and dazzling ways.
