This story is set in 1491 Grenada at the time of the Spanish Inquisition.
Fatima is the last concubine. Her friend Hassan is a mapmaker. Not a normal mapmaker, as his maps lead to Other places.
When Fatima learns that an Inquisitor has figured out Hassan's abilities, she knows they must flee or he will die.
This book was very slow. I liked Fatima and Hassan as characters, otherwise the rating would have been lower. This just wasn't for me.
I gave it 2.5 just because of the gorgeous cover, and because I liked the main characters. I received an ARC of this book so I felt like I had to finish it. I was so bored throughout that had it not been an ARC, I would have added it to my Did Not Finish list.
