Publisher Description
The breathtaking sequel to the acclaimed The Girl from Everywhere.
“Fresh and exciting . . . truly the perfect playground for adventure.”—NPR.org
“Thrilling.”—School Library Journal (starred review)
Nix has spent her whole life journeying to places both real and imagined aboard her time-traveling father’s ship. And now it’s finally time for her to take the helm. Her future lies bright before her—until she learns that she is destined to lose the one she loves.
Desperate to change her fate, Nix sails her crew to a mythical utopia to meet another Navigator who promises to teach her how to manipulate time. But everything in this utopia is constantly changing, and nothing is what it seems. Not even her relationship with Kash: best friend, thief, charmer extraordinaire.
Heidi Heilig weaves fantasy, history, and romance together to tackle questions of free will, fate, and what it means to love another person. At the center of this adventure are extraordinary, complicated, and multicultural characters who leap off the page, and an intricate, recognizable world that has no bounds.
This sequel—and conclusion—to The Girl from Everywhere includes five black-and-white maps of historical and mythical locations. Fans of Leigh Bardugo, Sabaa Tahir, and Outlander will be swept away.

“This genre-busting series—neither fantasy-romance nor historical fiction in disguise—offers an original take on a classic conundrum: if we can change the past, delete death and loss from life and love, what will it cost—and who pays? Nix’s narrative voice reveals a complicated protagonist who moves between trenchant pragmatism and poetic flights with fluidity.”
— Kirkus Reviews
Quotes

— School Library Journal -
“Time-traveling Nix Song, sixteen, is back, and fans of The Girl from Everywhere will be delighted.”
— Booklist -
“Time travel is a challenging trope to reinvent in a way that feels fresh and exciting, and Heilig succeeds with a flourish…The premise of these books is truly the perfect playground for adventure.”
— NPR -
“An adventure with greater stakes, more time-travel tricks, and a love story that defies the laws of the universe itself. Heilig could give Dr. Who a run for his money.”
— Alwyn Hamilton, author of Rebel of the Sands
