About This Book
Kate, Michael, and Emma have been in one orphanage after another for the
last ten years, passed along like lost baggage.
Yet these unwanted children are more remarkable than they could possibly
imagine. Ripped from their parents as babies, they are being protected
from a horrible evil of devastating power, an evil they know nothing
about.
Until now.
Before long, Kate, Michael, and Emma are on a journey to dangerous and
secret corners of the world...a journey of allies and enemies, of magic
and mayhem. And—if an ancient prophesy is correct—what they do can
change history, and it is up to them to set things right.
The Emerald Atlas brims with humor and action as it charts Kate,
Michael, and Emma's extraordinary adventures through an unforgettable,
enchanted world.
With a timeless writing style that invokes thoughts of children’s
fantasy classics such as Philip Pullman’s The Golden Compass and J.K.
Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, author John Stephens
weaves a gripping tale of mystery and magic into The Emerald Atlas. His
enchanting prose and spot-on wit can only be described as both hip
(Stephens was previously the executive producer of Gossip Girls) and
Dickensian, a delightful combination that will both engage young readers
with its relatable nature and fascinate them with its aberrant charm. If
Stephens's comic finesse and archetypal writing style aren’t enough to
engage young readers, they will no doubt be captivated by the plot.
Stephens's complex formula for time travel and fascinating explanation
for the disappearance of the magical realm is so convincing that readers
might begin to believe that there is, in fact, far more to the world
than meets the eye. Thought-provoking and enchanting, The Emerald Atlas
has the makings of a children’s classic. --Jacqueline Segall
