In this adventurous fantasy, Lottie Fiske navigates the magical yet treacherous land of Limn, a world on the brink of war. As she journeys north, Lottie confronts numerous dangers and seeks answers about her mysterious past, her parents, and her burgeoning magical abilities. Likened to classic works by C. S. Lewis and E. Nesbit, this book offers a vividly imagined world and a compelling story of courage and self-discovery, ideal for readers aged 8-11 who enjoy rich fantasy and quest narratives.
Travel back to the enchanting and treacherous land of Limn, where Lottie Fiske has escaped the murderous Southerly king for a while—but other perils are hard on her heels. War is coming to the beautiful world of magic that Lottie has come to love. Events are pushing her to the North, where many answers—about her parents, about her abilities, about this world and others—await. But the road to the north is full of dangers, and so are the answers. Likened to the works of E. Nesbit, Frances Hodgson Burnett, and C. S. Lewis, K. E. Ormsbee's vividly imagined world will appeal to readers who have been down the rabbit hole or through the wardrobe, and to anyone who has ever been braver than they thought they were.
