The Mapmaker's Apprentice

By Jessica Owen

When seventeen-year-old Rowan Cartwright discovers her parents' forbidden atlas in her aunt's attic, she unlocks a world where maps don't just show reality-they shape it.

For years, Rowan believed her parents died in an accident. The truth is far more dangerous: they're trapped in the Void Between-a realm outside existence itself-fighting a rogue Cartomancer who wants to tear down the walls between all realities.

Now the atlas has chosen Rowan. And with it comes a terrible inheritance: the power to map the impossible, to see paths through worlds that should never meet, and to finish what her parents started.

But the Wayfinder is still out there, creating fractures in reality, building a summoning circle that will bring forth the First Map-an artifact powerful enough to rewrite existence itself. He knows Rowan has the atlas. He's counting on it. And he's left her a message written in the language of broken worlds:

Find me, if you dare. I'll be waiting in the place where all maps end.

With only weeks before reality tears itself apart, Rowan must master magic she barely understands, navigate a conspiracy within the Guild of Cartographers, and make an impossible choice: save her parents from the Void, or save everyone else from what's coming through.

Some maps lead you home. Others lead you to hell. And the most dangerous ones do both.
