A cartographer's apprentice inherits a atlas that redraws itself every night — charting a burning country no living traveller has returned from. The latest novel from Marlowe Reed. Hardcover, 384 pages.
About this book
When cartographer's apprentice Wren Halloway inherits her master's atlas, she expects coastlines and trade roads. Instead the pages redraw themselves each night — charting a burning country no living traveller has returned from, with her own name written at its centre.
To finish the map, Wren must walk into it. Emberfall is a fantasy about the roads we inherit and the ones we draw ourselves: burning cities, paper lanterns, a compass that points at what you fear most — and a friendship strong enough to cross an unfinished border.

“The map had never lied to her before. But that morning the coastline was gone, and where the harbour should have been, in ink still wet, the atlas had written a single burning word: come.”— Emberfall by Marlowe Reed
