Compelling and magnetic, this much-anticipated sequel to New York Times bestselling authors Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner's The Other Side of the Sky has something for every reader: a star-crossed love full of tantalising longing, unique and immersive new worlds to explore, and nonstop thrills that escalate into an unforgettably electric conclusion.

Time to do the impossible. Time to find a way between worlds. Time to find each other again.

Both Nimh and her enemy, Inshara, have been sent to the cloudlands. Above, Nimh has no memory of her past, only an aching, undying certainty that she has left something - someone - behind. But while she struggles to recall her identity, an impostor wields her name with deadly purpose. Below, North looks to the sky, desperate to join the ones he loves and return to his world. But with only a traitor willing to help him, and others clamouring for him to take Nimh's place, the journey seems more impossible than ever. Enemies lurk in each world, and tragedy looms as the cloudland engines falter and mist rains terror on the surface. In their desperation to reunite and save their people, Nimh and North face one ultimate question: Can they defy their love and their destiny to save their homes? Or will the spark between them ignite their worlds and consume them altogether?

Praise for The Other Side of the Sky
'A vivid and compulsive thriller set in a beautiful, perilous world of myths and treachery. You won't want to put it down.' Laini Taylor, New York Times bestselling author of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series

'I was left breathless by the book's twists and turns, and was unprepared for the ending - it blew me away. Stop everything and read it!' C.S. Pacat, bestselling author of Dark Rise and the Captive Prince series

Industry Reviews
"'Beyond the End of the World brings together the incredible worldbuilding and engaging characters that Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner introduced in The Other Side of the Sky for a satisfying conclusion epic in scope and intensely personal in stakes ... Kaufman and Spooner use each other's voice and authorial strengths to deliver two worlds that feel distinct but connected. The depth and complexity of societal history and each character's emotional journeys feel real and earned, allowing the reader to invest fully in the personal stakes between Nimhara and North leading to the explosive climax ... For readers who enjoy innovative magic systems and fantastical societies that come alive through tangible history, tradition, fractured politics and faith, this duology is a must read.' Aurealis magazine

'Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner once again prove they are a 'dream team' of authors ... Like its predecessor, Beyond the End of the World includes lavish world-building and excellent pacing. Kaufman and Spooner somehow maintain that delicate balance between creating breakneck speed in the plot and exhausting the reader; instead there are tense, stressful moments and there are beautiful, more leisurely moments. A triumph of a conclusion to an excellent tale.' Ruth magazine

Praise for The Other Side of the Sky
'Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner prove they are two living goddesses of writing, creating two compelling worlds with high stakes and gripping emotions.' Sarah Rees Brennan, New York Times bestselling author of the Demons Lexicon trilogy

'Kaufman and Spooner, who also collaborated on the Starbound Trilogy, return with another richly drawn, tantalizingly romantic SF series starter. An especially action-packed back half will ensure readers come running back for the next volume.' Booklist

'Co-authors Kaufman and Spooner (the Unearthed duology) reunite for this propulsive, tender-hearted duology opener ... evocative prose, escalating intrigue, and charismatic, predominantly olive- and brown-skinned characters with diverse sexual orientations and gender identities keep the pages turning.' Publishers Weekly

'A complex, intricately woven tale, placed in an intriguing and unique world. This passionate story will thrill devotees of Kaufman and Spooner's ""Starbound"" series while also appealing to fans of Naomi Novik, Marissa Meyer, and Claudia Gray.' School Library Journal"
