Opis

"Romance, adventure, a courageous heroine-and one of the coolest fantasy concepts you'll ever see. THE CARTOGRAPHER'S DAUGHTER is an epic tale of a young woman with the power to destroy or create, simply by redrawing the map of the world. Lianna's story will sweep you away to a world you've never experienced before-and one that might disappear before your very eyes." Robin Brande, Author of Evolution, Me & Other Freaks of Nature; Fat Cat; Doggirl; and The Parallel series. In 1432 Portugal, Lianna Reinel lives with her Aunt and Uncle in a small secret enclave of magical beings called Cartos. Long ago the Cartos race held dominion over the earth and could rewrite it at will. Their arrogance led to a cataclysm, the end of all things, and the human racial memory of demons. It also led to a Cartos Edict against the use of their magick. Lianna's forbidden love for a human boy, Gil Eannes, and the arrival of Prince Henrique of Portugal who needs an alliance with Lianna's uncle to finance a holy war, leads to Gil's banishment on a deadly journey to the actual end of the earth. Forced to choose between her love or obedience, Lianna wakens old magick and then must face the consequences: Fire. Water. Pestilence. And lost love.
