The Unmapped Lands

Alanna Rye may be straightforward to the point of rudeness and more than a little short-tempered, but what she lacks in grace, she makes up for with the ability to turn her enemies into small rodents. As a witch of uncommon power, she's used to dealing with unusual situations, from surviving alone in the Canadian wilderness to spending time as a bear, and when a demon in an expensive suit strolls into her apartment one autumn afternoon, she doesn't bat an eye. Corralling the occasional stray emissary of Hell is all in a day's work.


But when a friend accidentally opens a portal to a parallel universe, balance must be restored to not one, but two worlds, and the challenge may be more than even Alanna can handle. She must travel to the farthest reaches of an alien realm and try to set things right--all the while keeping an eye on the demon Joe, who has no choice but to come along for the ride.


With a frank, funny protagonist and an unforgettable cast of characters that includes a bitter magician, a weepy psychic, and a very capable rat, The Unmapped Lands is the perfect modern fantasy tale for readers in search of a new adventure.
