Description
Quinn Freeman may have won the race around the world, but when a new enemy appears he must travel beyond the edge of the map once more.
Quinn is back! He finished his race around the world and is living a quiet life on the family farm, until he discovers that the King's enemies want to capture him. Quinn is forced to go on the run, taking to the high seas once more. Can he survive when he is double-crossed and left for dead?
BEYOND THE EDGE OF THE MAP is another thrilling adventure from A. L. Tait in the bestselling Mapmaker Chronicles.
'Not since Emily Rodda's DELTORA QUEST series has there been such an exciting adventure tale from an Australian author. Echoes of Robinson Crusoe make this feel like a classic with a new twist, and it's perfect for readers aged 8 to 12 who are looking for some escapism in the sea of contemporary stories.' - Readings on THE MAPMAKER CHRONICLES 1: RACE TO THE END OF THE WORLD

About the Author
A. L. Tait grew up dreaming of world domination. Unfortunately, at the time there were only alphabet sisters B. L. and C. A. and long-suffering brother M. D. M. to practise on . . . and parents who didn't look kindly upon sword fights, plank-walking or bows and arrows. But dreams don't die and The Mapmaker Chronicles and The Ateban Cipher, the author's two series of books for children, are the result. A. L. lives in country New South Wales with a family, a garden, three goldfish and a very cheeky border collie. A. L. Tait writes fiction and non-fiction for adults under another name.

Beyond the Edge of the Map is always a fun, swashbuckling adventure even when Quinn's chances of survival seem grim.—Hollybidwell.com blog
I would recommend these books to kids 8-12 who like adventure, who love to enter a detailed, believable fictional world, who like action, flashes of humour, quests and moments of nail-biting tension. Suggest The Mapmaker Chronicles too to children who like a series - there's something very comforting about understanding main characters and growing with them over the course of several books.—The Book Chook Blog
