The Hatter's Daughter

In a wonderland where the Mad Hatter and the Cheshire Cat rule, The Rot threatens the sanity and lives of all...

There is more to the Vine than mortals and immortals know. It reaches its branches and tendrils into realms beyond the Riven Isles. On the night Faith was born, her mother perished, but not before sending Faith to safety, in Underneath. Discovered by The Mad Hatter, he takes Faith home to raise as his own. When the Rot invades, Faith determines to fight. She won’t do it alone. Her childhood friend, Prince Rowan accompanies her. Faith must return to her birthplace to find a Legendary Heroine. But Overland is dangerous, and the minions of the Rot are in pursuit. If she doesn’t succeed, the minions of the Rot will destroy everything they know.

For comparisons, think The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow, or After Alice by Gregory Maguire. And, of course, Lewis Carroll's, Alice in Wonderland.

Tales from the Riven Isles is a dark fantasy series where diverse heroes face ancient magic, personal struggles, and the spreading threat of The Rot to save their magical world.
