Magical worlds and incredible creatures fill the pages of this action-packed adventure in the Map to Everywhere series!

Fearless adventurers Marrill and Fin have just barely stopped the Iron Tide and the evil wizard Serth from destroying the Pirate Stream. Now they’re on a mission to find Fin’s missing mother, but before they can blink, Fin’s people have found him–and they’re not as friendly as he’d hoped. In fact, they’re after a powerful wish orb that could resurrect the debilitating Iron Tide and end the world as we know it. Without their captain Coll and wizard friend Ardent to guide them, are Marrill and Fin brave enough to take on the magic (and evil) of the Pirate Stream on their own? Find out in this exhilarating third book that raises the stakes to new heights!

  • Praise for City of Thirst:
    "The setting and the large supporting cast are of the 'anything goes' sort, and again the authors have concocted both with an adroit mixture of humor and wonder.... A fiery climax and a hard choice set Marrill on course for further adventures on the Pirate Stream. Avast!"
    Kirkus Reviews
  • "Ryan and Davis spin a dizzying fantasy world full of bizarre creatures, twisted time lines, and a fascinating geography.... Readers who haven't read The Map to Everywhere should have no trouble starting with book two."
