An extraordinary island fantasy from the author of Slights.
The island is the world, and the centre of the island is the Tree. When they are 18, each person must leave their home and walk the Tree. Years later, when they return – if they return – they will be changed.

-Trudi Canavan, author of the Black Magician Trilogy

- Ellen Datlow
Praise for “Slights”:
“With outstanding control, Warren manipulates Stevie’s voice to create a portrait of horror that in no way reads like a first novel.”
- Publishers Weekly (Starred) Pick of the Week
“Hugely and genuinely disturbing”
- SciFi Now, reviewing Slights
“Simply gut-wrenching”
- Jon Courtenay Grimwood, SFX
“Powerful stuff. So powerful, in fact, that my throat was hurting with my attempts to keep my emotions under control. I was completely drawn in, totally immersed. I felt ill much of the time.”
- Russell Kirkpatrick, bestselling author of “Across the Face of the World”
