Emilie Adventures: Emilie and the Hollow World & Emilie and the Sky World
Emilie Adventures: Emilie and the Hollow World & Emilie and the Sky World | Martha Wells
1 post | 1 read
Two novel-length steampunk adventures from the author of the wildly successful Murderbot Diaries. Together in one volume for the first time: Emilie and the Hollow WorldRunning away from home and stowing away on the wrong ship, Emilie embarks on a fantastic adventure. Emilie learns that the crew hopes to use an experimental engine to journey to the interior of the planet, but when the ship becomes damaged on arrival and evidence points to sabotage, they encounter the treacherous Lord Ivers, along with a strange new race. Can Emilie and her new-found friends possibly reach the surface world again? Emilie and the Sky-WorldWhen Emilie arrives in Silk Harbor, Professor Abindon, an old colleague of her friend Lady Marlende, warns them of something strange and potentially deadly in the sky, a disruption in an upper air aether current. On further investigation they realize it's a ship from another aetheric plane. How to determine if it's a friendly explorer, or something far more sinister? Nothing less than a journey into the dangerous air currents will do. Join Emilie and she navigates the strange landscapes of the upper air, and the deadly menace that inhabits the Sky World.

In her efforts to escape a controlling uncle, Emilie accidentally stows away on a ship traveling through aetheric currents to the Hollow World. The discoveries made there will change everything.

2 novels, both wonderful reads! Emilie is an engaging protagonist & realistically young, & I love her growth especially in book 2. The side characters were fun, & the world building was fantastic. Very similar vibes to the movie Treasure Planet.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
