Starfinder is a fantasy fiction novel written by John Marco. Plot summary Young Moth had grown up in Calio, the mountain city -and he considered himself lucky to live in this very special place. For in Calio a man could be a Skyknight, one of the elite pilots who flew the fragile, beautiful, newfangled flying machines called dragonflies. Any man who dreamed of flying belonged in only one place, Calio, the city on the edge of the world. And young Moth, who had worked at the aerodrome since he was ten, wanted to fly more than anything. To the north of Calio stretched the Reach, looking like a sea of fog that never ended. There were numerous tall tales about the lands beyond the Reach, and Moth heard the oddest of them regularly now that he has been living with Leroux. When Moth was ten, and was first taken in by Leroux, he became especially fascinated by Leroux's stories of the Skylords. However at the grown-up age of thirteen, Moth became increasingly skeptical about the existence of these mysterious, powerful, and frightening beings from beyond the Reach. But Moth's life was about to change in ways he could not even imagine, and soon the land of the Skylords would become more real and more threatening than the most outlandish tales Leroux could have ever spun. For soon Moth would have a key to another world -the world beyond the Reach...
