'Kiran

Millwood Hargrave creates a spellbinding world of magic,

myth and adventure' EMMA CARROLL

Forbidden

to leave her island, Isabella dreams of the faraway lands her cartographer

father once mapped. When her friend disappears, she volunteers

to guide the search. The world beyond the walls is a monster-filled

wasteland - and beneath the dry rivers and smoking mountains,

a fire demon is stirring from its sleep. Soon, following

her map, her heart and an ancient myth, Isabella discovers the true

end of her journey: to save the island itself.

Beautiful,

thrilling and magical, Kiran Millwood Hargrave's debut novel

has all the makings of a modern classic.
