Ember, Miles and Sam are all from different times, and what starts as a journey to take control of their lives becomes a quest to either restore a cosmic balance or destroy the dams that separate two worlds, ending both. Simultaneous and eBook.

Told in alternating voices, three teens from different time periods are called to the world of the Fountain to restore balance and prevent its eldritch creatures from seeping into the real world.

Ember, Miles, and Sam have been called home—only home is a place none of them have ever been before. The choices they make will not only determine their own futures but will also have vast and permanent consequences—they will either restore a cosmic balance or destroy the dams that separate two worlds, ending them both. Ember was called because she belonged, Miles because his mother belonged, and Sam . . . well, Sam arranged his own invitation. 
 
The Fountain itself is beautiful and alluring—yet so is the light of an anglerfish. Hidden below the surface, the world of the Fountain is vast: unexplored and unmapped and full of wild things—leviathan and tiny, scuttling things and all manner of creature in between. There are other entities as well, entities that haunt and hunt in the Fountain, because it rewards nearly as often as it punishes, and it has been punishing the greedy and merciless and cruel for a very long time. For those, the Fountain becomes a prison.
 
The borders between our world and the world of the Fountain are already porous. If the balance between them is upset and control of the Fountain is lost, the consequences will be rapid, merciless, and world-ending. In every timeline that has been or will be, everywhere that water stands in our world will become a passageway for the violent damned to enter ours from the Fountain. For Ember, Miles, and Sam, all from different times, what starts as a journey to take control of their lives quickly becomes a quest to save—or destroy—both worlds, depending on whom you ask.

Rising star and Bram Stoker Award-winning author, Lora Senf has created a gorgeously written, pitch-black fantasy that will transport readers to a world that is as beautiful as it is horrifying and will keep readers on their toes as they devour it page by page.


A new dark fantasy from Bram Stoker Award-winning author Lora Senf.
Ember, Miles, and Sam have been called home—only home is a place none of them have ever been before. Outside of time lies the world of the Fountain. It’s vast, unexplored, unmapped and full of wild things—leviathan and tiny, scuttling things and all manner of creature in between. The borders that separate the Fountain from our world are already porous, and in every timeline that has been or will be, water can be a passageway for the violent and damned to enter our world. The three teens, all from different times, are on a mission that will either restore a cosmic balance or destroy the border that separates our world from the world beyond the Fountain, ending them both.

[ A] dark fairytale about the struggle between good and evil in each persons heart. Booklist

A devious twist, gloriously horrific monsters, and gentle explorations of grief bring this fable to an emotional close. Publishers Weekly

"Fans of dark fantasy with horrifying monsters and action will enjoy the rising action of this novel and its unique world." School Library Journal

Delicate beauty and startling monstrosities. The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

The Losting Fountain is sweet and terrible in the gloriously gutting tradition of Diana Wynne Jones and Richard Adams. A modern fable, this journey through a new, beautifully recognizable landscape of the heart is a quick, compelling read. Highly recommended. Seanan McGuire, award-winning author of the Wayward Children series

Lora Senfs brain is so weird in the best possible ways. If I have to get lost anywhere, Im glad its in her imagination. With a cast of fully realized and heartbreaking characters and an intriguing new world beyond our own, The Losting Fountain is a darkly delightful addition to any library or bookshelf. Kiersten White, New York Times bestselling author of And I Darken
