Five hundred years ago, ""in an alternate Age of Exploration,
the earth is flat. Alchemy is a true science, sea monsters menace
the oceans, and Europe is embroiled in religious controversy. At
the edge of the world, where the stars reach down close to the
Earth, wonders abound. This drives the bravest explorers to the
beckoning Western Ocean.
Christopher Sinclair is an alchemist who cares only about one
thing: quintessence, a substance he believes will grant magical
powers and immortality. And he has a ship.
Fleeing an inquisition, physician Stephen Parris follows
Sinclair to an island that perches upon the farthest horizon,
bringing his daughter Catherine with him. The island teems with
fantastical animals and alluring mysteries...and may even harbor
the most coveted secret of all ... in this novel by David
Walton.
