She underestimated the dark side of the moon...Valerie, a freshly-arrived varsity student, falls in love with her rescuer after an unusual attack. But what she doesn’t know, is that Alex is not the average boy-next- door.She unknowingly witnesses the build-up to an ancient battle between the sun and the moon… and soon discovers that she is the centre pin of the battle.PrefaceMy heart pounded and my ears swooshed. I didn’t like asking questions in class, especially not a full philosophy class, but I had to make sure that I had heard correctly.“But, Professor, do you really believe it is possible for the sun, a star, to be alive?” I had to speak up above the buzz of voices from where I sat in the third row. No one was listening. They thought the Professor was just a big fat joke. And his overweight, wobbly appearance made him even more ridiculous, not to mention his bald Bozo-the-clown hairstyle.He stopped writing on the board and turned towards the class. “Who asked that question?” The noise level died down a bit. He had never spoken to anyone directly before.I raised my hand slightly but enough for him to see me. He frowned before answering.“It is not a question of whether it is alive. It is a question of form.”The noise level from disinterested students climbed even higher than before.I nodded and stuck my shaking hands deep into my pockets.
