How does an introverted gamer-girl learn to navigate the space between life and death, portal-hop through dimensions to save worlds, conquer an evil trickster and a fallen angel, and end up finding her home in the heart of an empath shifter on the other side of the universe?

While Celeste battles monstrous external foes, there are also inner demons she must face. As the biracial teenage daughter of mixed-faith parents, Celeste suffers from acute introversion—and an inability to find her place in the world. Her only escape is immersion in the virtual reality games her father designs. But it's through the guise of gaming that Celeste is forced to overcome her sensitivity by accepting it as the gift that makes her a heroine.
