"The Cartographers is one of those brilliant books you have to read twice." -- Washington Post

"There are echoes of Borges and Bradbury, Pynchon and Finian's Rainbow, but Ms. Shepherd's exhilarating and enjoyable work casts a magical glow all its own." -- Wall Street Journal

It just doesn't quite stick the landing

This book revolves around one wild discovery made by the title Cartographers (which I will not describe to avoid spoilers). It then doesn't execute this discovery well in the world of the book. The more you sit and think about how that discovery would actually play out, the less the plot and conclusion make sense. Also maybe I'm too picky but I feel like some of the reveals were pretty obvious and I hate when a plot hinges on just the failure of a group of people to communicate among yourselves. I'm a grouchy reader, so this could still totally be a great book for you if you want a strange map mystery.

Map lovers alert

Very other worldly and the fiction is really different. But a happy ending, I'm always up to read.
