Guided by the magical maps on her skin, battling storms and mutiny, Ragna sets sail across the Northern Sea.

Autorenporträt
Born in Chicago, Julia Ember now lives in Edinburgh, Scotland with her partner and their city-based menagerie of pets with names from Harry Potter. Sirius Black and Luna Lovegood the cats currently run her life. A world-traveller since childhood, Julia has visited almost seventy countries. Her travels inspire her writing, though she populates her worlds with magic and monsters. She has worked as a teacher, a wedding cake decorator and a bookseller. Julia began writing at the age of nine, when her short story about two princesses and their horses won a contest. In 2016, she published her first novel, Unicorn Tracks, with Harmony Ink Press. It also focused on two girls and their equines, albeit those with horns. She has subsequently published three further works for young adults. The Navigator's Touch is the sequel to The Seafarer's Kiss, which was released by Interlude Press in May 2017. It was heavily influenced by Julia's postgraduate work in Medieval literature at the University of St. Andrews.
