FEBRUARY post 1

Who is the main character in your book?  What is this character like?  Tell the character’s name, age, appearance, friends, personality, and problems…

My book, Lost Stars, by Claudia Gray, has two characters who spotlight as central protagonists. Thane Kyrell, and Ciena Ree are two young people from Jelucan, a planet on the Outer Rim. They come from two different "sides of the tracks" so to speak. Thane is from a part of the colony that is more established; Thane's family has a ship that he use can practice flying-Ciena is from a poorer part, and is lucky enough to have Thane to co-pilot with. The book follows them from a very young age (around 7) until they are adults and tracks their lives as they navigate through the ever changing space-scape that is the galactic empire. Ciena's family is fiercely loyal; once you make a stand for something there is no backing down. Thane, on the other hand, is more of an idealistic individual, while balancing a healthy cynicism.
