THE Mapmaker chronicles (#1)
Race to the end of the world<\/h3>\n

The King is determined to discover what lies beyond the known world, and has promised\u00a0 handsome prize to the ship\u2019s captain who can bring him a map. To do that, they\u2019ll need mapmakers \u2013 and 14-year-old Quinn is shocked to be one of the chosen. While his older brothers long for adventure, Quinn is content with a quiet life on the farm, but when word of his special talent gets out, he has no choice but to pack his bags and join the mismatched crew of slaves and stowaways on board the Libertas.<\/p>\n

“Wow. I did not know what to expect with this book, so I was utterly transfixed when it just blew me away. Quinn is utterly fascinating as a character … The world built by Tait is extraordinarily realistic and engaging … The story has many twists and turns, making for an engaging read as the book carries on. I would recommend this to fans of adventure and medieval-type settings!”<\/em>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<\/span>This Kid Reviews Books<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
