Boston, 1891. Thirteen-year-old Sophia Tims lives with her uncle, cartologer Shadrack Elli, in a world torn to pieces by the Great Disruption of 1799 - when all of the continents were mysteriously thrown into different time periods, from the prehistoric era to the fortieth century. Sophia's parents are explorers. She has not seen them in years, since they went on an expedition and never returned. When Shadrack is kidnapped from their home, Sophia sets out-along with her new friend, Theo - to find him. Their journey takes them across the country. Along with a group of lawabiding pirates, and a wayward botanist and his daughter, they search for Sophia's uncle, and run for their lives. What they learn-about mapmaking, the changes taking place in the world, and the legends of the land-transforms Sophia forever.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

The glass cases had been shattered, their contents gone. The bureaus lay open, their drawers bare. Here, too, the books had been pulled from the shelves and thrown to the floor. Sophia took in the destruction, too stunned to call out again. Everything, every single thing in the map room, had been destroyed or stolen. A broken glass map crunched beneath her boot and she looked down at the shards. There was a long, jagged scar across the leather-topped table. She touched it gingerly, as if to make certain that it was real. Then she raised her head and her eye fell on the wall map above the armchairs: the map of her parents’ voyage. It had been torn in half, ripped clear through from one end to the other.
Sophia stared numbly at the pins that lay scattered around her on the chairs and carpet, a single thought running through her mind: Where is he? Where is Shadrack? Where is he?

Condición: Como nuevo. : En el Boston de 1891, Sophia Tims proviene de una familia de exploradores y cartógrafos que, durante generaciones, han estado viajando y mapeando el Nuevo Mundo, un mundo cambiado por la Gran Disrupción de 1799, cuando todos los continentes fueron lanzados a diferentes períodos de tiempo. Hace ocho años, los padres de Sophia la dejaron con su tío Shadrack, el principal cartógrafo de Boston, y se fueron en una misión urgente. Nunca regresaron. Entonces Shadrack es secuestrado. Sophia debe buscarlo con la ayuda de Theo, un refugiado del Oeste. Juntos viajan por terrenos accidentados y océanos inexplorados, se encuentran con piratas y comerciantes, y confían en una combinación de los mapas de Shadrack, el sentido común y los inusuales poderes de observación de Sophia. Poco saben que sus vidas corren tanto peligro como la de Shadrack. Un bestseller del New York Times.
