Now the Star Shards face the ultimate battle--and the true purpose of their gifts be revealed, for it is no accident they have these powers. Once despised for their \"deformities,\" the Star Shards are now worshiped and feared as gods. Their power is unlimited, as is the temptation to abuse it. But a new and terrifying force has torn a wound in the universe, infecting it like a deadly, intelligent virus. Only one power exists that could conceivably prevent the extermination of the human race: the Star Shards. But only if they can put aside their titanic egos and join forces one final time. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAcclaimed author Neal Shusterman's \"talent for depicting superhuman characters with human strengths and weaknesses lends depth and immediacy to a tale of cosmic proportions\" (\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e) in this stunning conclusion to a visionary trilogy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eOriginally published by Tor Fantasy in 2002. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442451179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e59215 \/ Shattered Sky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.4 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 25\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Neal Shusterman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52379392114869,"sku":"9781442451179","price":8.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_11588c9e-12f5-416a-98e1-23add2b805f2.jpg?v=1774372623","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/shattered-sky-9781442451179","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
