"Daughter of Starlight" by Molly M. Hammond Receives Esteemed Literary Titan Gold Book Award
Image: https://www.globalnewslines.com/uploads/2025/06/1750701170.jpgAuthor Molly M. Hammond's debut young adult fantasy novel, Daughter of Starlight , has been honored with the Literary Titan Gold Book Award, celebrating its exceptional storytelling, emotional depth, and vivid worldbuilding. The novel also received a Readers' Favorite 5-Star Review, affirming its growing resonance with both critics and readers.
A stirring blend of epic fantasy and real-world emotion, Daughter of Starlight introduces readers to Luma, a tough, guarded young woman on the edge of aging out of foster care, who discovers a hidden cave in the Colorado mountains and is transported to Edira, a magical realm teetering on the brink of ruin. With ancient prophecies, mystical powers, and an unforgettable heroine wrestling with her past and uncertain future, this gripping narrative has been hailed as both "deeply personal and sweepingly epic" by Literary Titan.
"Hammond doesn't write magic as something clean or effortless; it's messy, painful, and exhausting. That choice made Luma's journey feel earned instead of just fated... a beautifully crafted fantasy that offers real emotional depth, a stubborn and relatable heroine, and a story that intertwines everyday struggles with dazzling magic." - Literary Titan
At the heart of the story lies a mystery: Luma's identity. Found as a child with no memory and strange scars on her palms, Luma is drawn across a magical bridge to a world of elves, ruins, and a rising tide of dark magic. There, whispers claim she is the long-awaited "Daughter of Starlight," the only one who can heal the ancient Sacred Stones and save the elven people from destruction. But Luma isn't a willing hero. She's reluctant, lost, and just wants to go home, until her own power begins to awaken.
Molly M. Hammond weaves a lyrical and emotionally charged narrative that explores the complex threads of destiny, belonging, and identity. With cinematic battles, sharply drawn characters, and a voice that never flinches from Luma's raw humanity, Daughter of Starlight marks the arrival of a compelling new voice in young adult fantasy.
Whether you're a fan of richly imagined fantasy worlds, emotionally grounded heroines, or stories of resilience and magic, this award-winning novel belongs on your shelf. Daughter of Starlight is available now in paperback and eBook at multiple retailers, including Amazon [https://amzn.to/4kQKgwA] and Barnes & Noble [https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/daughter-of-starlight-molly-m-hammond/1147283476?ean=9781509261185].
About the Author
Molly M. Hammond is an award-winning author whose love of language and storytelling has shaped her life and career. She holds degrees in English and Communication, as well as American Sign Language Interpreting. Molly's storytelling is informed by her deep empathy, sharp observation, and a vivid imagination that often strikes while she's out on a run, a routine that both inspires her creativity and frustrates her with ideas that never quite leap directly onto the page.
When she's not writing or interpreting, Molly can be found adventuring with her dog, Bungee, and her two cats, Rose and Clover, or enjoying life in the scenic St. Croix River Valley of Minnesota with her husband and two sons. Daughter of Starlight is her debut novel and the first in a planned series.
