In the ancient kingdom of Terravelle-where mountains carry memories, rivers whisper names, and every grain of soil records the footsteps of the living-there is a legend forbidden to speak aloud:
"When the world cracks, the Mud Baby rises."
Most people believe it is a superstition. But the Earth never forgets.
When a catastrophic tremor splits the ground of the Great Orchard, a strange infant climbs out of the crack-its body formed entirely from pulsing brown clay, its chest beating like molten earth. By sunrise, the mud has hardened into skin, leaving behind a boy who looks almost human.
Almost.
His name is Andy.
Raised by a frightened but compassionate villager, Andy grows up hiding his impossible abilities. He can hear stones argue beneath the roads, coax vines to bloom with a hum, smell lies through the tremors they leave in the soil. And when he cries, the world shakes. Literally.
But as the deep earth stirs, an ancient necromantic order called The Dustbound Court returns. With an army of hollow Clay Wraiths and a hunger for domination, they seek Andy-the Earthborn child foretold to unlock the UnderCradle, a mythic chamber where the world's first heartbeat sleeps.
What Andy discovers is more terrifying than prophecy: He is not a weapon. He is not a monster. He is a shard of the living planet Gaianor, shaped into a boy to heal the wounds humans inflicted on the Earth itself.
As Andy's powers grow, his body begins to crack, roots sprout along his spine, and the earth threatens to reclaim him. Every step he takes brings him closer to losing his humanity-and closer to the truth of why he was born from mud in the first place.
To stop the Dustbound Court from awakening the stone titan Gravemor and reshaping the world in ruin, Andy must descend into the UnderCradle and confront the ancient heartbeat that created him. If he merges fully with the earth, he may save the world...
...but he may never return as a boy again.
A breathtaking original epic of identity, destiny, and the living magic of the world beneath our feet, The Earthbornblends mythic wonder with emotional depth. It is the tale of a child made of earth who teaches humanity what it means to belong.
