Reviews Of Half The Sky

The first star that passed away extinguished two thousand years ago. Four hundred years later, the mysterious Calamity of Heavenly Fall destroyed the civilization of the previous era, returning thriving cultures to ignorance. Since then, stars gradually vanished, the Firmament grew dark and dim, and a new civilization rose from the starless wilderness, flourishing once more. Yet, what accompanied this were war, death, destruction, and hatred. The flames once aimed at the Firmament were used to slaughter the people of enemy nations, and the raining clouds once engineered to alter deserts were turned into floods that engulfed the land. Humans once again began to kill each other for wealth and power... but no one looked up at the sky. They lost the Guidance of the stars Above the Sky, forgetting the awe of gazing upon the Milky Way. They were all prisoners. One thousand six hundred years after the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, a young child awakened memories of his past life. He wanted to break the Cage, to throw off the shackles. He wanted to become a star. To return to Above the Sky. "I don't care about how the people of this world live, whether they're well-fed or not, whether they can dress warmly or live comfortably, whether they have dreams or hopes. I don't care about their loves and hates." "I just want to go Above the Sky." ——Ian.

In a world where the stars themselves bestow power, the heavens have been shattered. Once whole and luminous, the celestial canopy now hangs broken, its pieces scattered across the mortal realm. The constellations—embodiments of strength, wisdom, and magic—lie in fragments, their power unleashed to the world below. What was meant to guide and protect now threatens to tear the world apart. The calamity was the work of Orion the Skybreaker, a celestial turned rogue. In his hunger for ultimate power, Orion shattered the heavens, breaking their ancient order. Fragments rained upon the mortal plane, granting unimaginable abilities to those who found them. But the power is wild and dangerous, corrupting those unworthy of wielding it. As chaos spreads and factions rise to claim the fallen stars, the celestial council is left weakened, unable to restore the shattered sky. Their only hope lies in a mortal: a young, unremarkable man named Kael. Despite this, Kael’s courage and resolve catch the attention of Astraea, one of the last remaining celestials, who entrusts him with a sacred mission: to reclaim the fragments, rebuild the constellations, and repair the shattered sky. But Kael’s path is fraught with sacrifice. To mend the heavens, he must face the truth about the constellations’ origins, Orion’s betrayal, and the terrible cost of repairing what has been broken. As he pieces together the celestial tapestry, Kael learns that some stars burn too brightly, and some wounds may never heal. Will Kael have the strength to reunite the stars and stop the Void’s return? Or will he be consumed by the very power he seeks to restore? The journey to heal the shattered sky begins here—a tale of courage, betrayal, and the boundless hope that lies within even the smallest spark of light. The Shattered Sky: Herald of the Celestials is an epic fantasy of cosmic proportions, filled with breathtaking battles, intricate power struggles, and a protagonist whose growth inspires as much as it astounds. Prepare to witness the rebirth of the heavens, one star fragment at a time.

Whispers of the Summer Sky** Arjun never planned to spend his summer at a remote countryside resort, much less on a quiet hilltop bench.

But everything changes when he meets Naina, a spirited and opinionated girl who claims the bench as her own. At first, their encounters are marked by playful arguments and awkward silences, but as the nights pass and the stars grow brighter, they begin to share pieces of themselves—dreams, fears, and the secrets they hide from the world. What starts as a chance meeting turns into something deeper, as the hilltop becomes their sanctuary and the summer sky witnesses the fragile bond forming between them. But summers don’t last forever. As the days slip by, Arjun and Naina must face the reality of their lives beyond the bench. Will their connection survive the world waiting for them, or will it fade like the whispers of the summer sky? A heartfelt story of fleeting moments, unexpected connections, and the beauty of finding someone who truly understands you.

"Get your hands off me!" she almost shouted, wrestling against my grip, so I held her even tighter. "Put this on!" I groaned, toiling to keep her in place and wishing again I’d worn the damn gloves. The feel of her warm skin under my arm and palm wasn’t helping my focus. "I'm not taking you home like this!" "You don't tell me what to do!" she snapped, thrashing to break free of my hold as I fumbled with the cloak in my other hand, trying to drape it over her bare shoulders. "I'm not going home! Let me go, I said!" "Did you really think I got you out of there just to let you wander the streets, almost naked, like a lunatic?" That stopped her. "What did you call me?!" "LU-NA-TIC." "You... You…! Take your hands off me, you insolent brute!" Enraged, she yanked her arm too abruptly and lost her balance. I caught her, wrapped her in the cloak, and threw her over my shoulder. "PUT ME DOWN!" She shrieked and flailed, but I ignored her, making my way to the Commander’s house, which, thanks to Braa, was only two streets away. Since the entire population was in the square for the ridiculous festival, no one intervened at the frantic cries of the wild creature. No wonder in the ten years I've known the Commander, I've never heard that he has a daughter. She must’ve been kept locked away. Strangely, she suddenly went still and quiet. Had she grown tired, worried about attracting attention, or finally realized how inappropriate it was to show up at her parents' doorstep in this state? She didn’t seem to care before. With every step, my anxiety grew—she was limp. "Hey!" No answer. Seriously?! "Hey, you!" Nothing. A bad feeling crept over me, so I pulled her off my shoulder and into my arms. Her head fell against my chest—unconscious. "Hey! Hey, you!" I shook her, but she didn’t react. Panic surged through me. Had she fainted? Had I held her too tight? Lifting her more securely, I sprinted toward the Commander's house.

The Earth has changed greatly with these chosen people becoming the most important people in the world due to their status and strength as some of them are even leaders of their own nations. The emergence of Gates and it's dangers however allowed the world to realise the reason as to why the higher beings have decided to bless them.
