Emily Wilde's Map of the Otherlands - by Heather Fawcett

Book Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - When mysterious faeries from other realms appear at her university, curmudgeonly professor Emily Wilde must uncover their secrets before it's too late, in this heartwarming, enchanting second installment of the Emily Wilde series.

AN ELLE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore who just wrote the world's first comprehensive encyclopaedia of faeries. She's learned many of the secrets of the Hidden Ones on her adventures . . . and also from her fellow scholar and former rival Wendell Bambleby.

Because Bambleby is more than infuriatingly charming. He's an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother and in search of a door back to his realm. And despite Emily's feelings for Bambleby, she's not ready to accept his proposal of marriage: Loving one of the Fair Folk comes with secrets and dangers.

She also has a new project to focus on: a map of the realms of faerie. While she is preparing her research, Bambleby lands her in trouble yet again, when assassins sent by his mother invade Cambridge. Now Bambleby and Emily are on another adventure, this time to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby's realm and the key to freeing him from his family's dark plans.

But with new relationships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors and of her own heart.

Review Quotes

"Like all good fairy tales, this book is enchantingly charming, with hints of razor-sharp teeth. My only complaint is that it ends; I want to live in Emily's Otherlands forever."--Kiersten White, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Mister Magic

"Readers will be pleased that curmudgeonly Emily hasn't lost too much of her edge, but she's still susceptible to unexpected bonds of friendship."--Booklist, starred review

"Upping the danger and the darkness while still retaining all the beauty of the prose, this takes Emily's story to new heights."--Publishers Weekly

"Love can change a person--or a faerie--in the most unexpected of ways, and it's impossible to walk alongside Emily on her journey of scholarship, mapmaking and true love without rooting for her."--BookPage

"Wilde is a fantastic character: frosty and reserved, but also generous and kind. . . . In many ways, the second Emily Wilde book is even more compelling than the first."--The Washington Post
