Glix Leroux is THE RISING STAR

Glix Leroux has a very nice, normal life in a small-but-nice planetoid. But when Hallah's first skyfall rains flaming destruction, her nice life begins to unravel. And by running away she only runs into new problems, thanks to a nasty speech condition. When a rant gone awry thrusts her into the limelight as Fogwit City's latest Rising Star, her hopes for returning to a normal, nice life are dashed. But she has talent...and as a new supercelebrity she makes powerful new friends...more than one of the boyish variety. Glix also makes powerful new enemies, including a rich and conniving understudy.

As her planet spirals toward self-destruction, Glix fights the growing realization that she may be something special. When she accidentally makes an enemy of Lady Crocus, the mysterious sky goddess, she is forced into a dangerous choice: ignore her budding powers and let her planet die...or embrace them and join the rebels' secret battle to save Hallah. Possibly there is help hidden in her bizarre dreams...if she can find it.
