Prelude (The Creatura Series)

Deus, the creator of the universe, is almighty and powerful—until he uses his abilities to mold a companion. His newest creation, Starr, proves to be as wild as the animals that inhabit Terra. There's no controlling her. To make matters worse, she hates Deus. So what's the one boy in the universe to do when the one girl in the universe loathes him? The only illogical thing to do. He falls in love.

From the Inside Flap

DAY 2 Morning has come for the first time, and it overwhelms me. The sky is filled with so many shades of ginger and garnet that all I can do is stare, paralyzed by its beauty. The sun is like liquid gold, rising to take its throne in the cerulean heavens. I know I created it, but I, myself, can hardly believe I did. I feel the need to share the beauty of the universe with someone, but there's no onehere. However, that can be changed... I can change it. Using two fingers, I draw two shapes on each of my arms⎯triangles. I command them to be released, and they are. This is my flesh, and I will mold it. I could easily say, "Be," and she would appear, but I want to take the time to sculpt her. I want to see every tiny particle, every layer of muscle slowly become her. I don't want to overlook a single detail. In the clouds, I begin to shape her. I name her Starr.
