The Emerald Atlas

The narrative jumps between past and present, which kept me guessing. I wonder what inspired the choice to structure it this way and if it was planned from the start.

The way the kids discover magic felt so genuine and exciting. I’m curious if that sense of awe was based on childhood memories or entirely imagined.

The world-building felt richly detailed and immersive. I wonder if the author drew from specific myths or created everything from scratch.
