Can you calculate the weight of a broken world?

In the heart of the Great Hearthwood, the trees don’t rustle—they chime like antique clockwork, drinking molten copper and warm brass from the earth’s core. But the numbers are shifting. The core is freezing, and a devastating frost threatens to turn the vibrant canopy into brittle, shattering iron.

Meet Solis, a brilliant copper-winged flying squirrel obsessed with mathematical formulas, and Bramble, an ancient iron-shelled box turtle carrying hidden mechanical seeds. Together, they must descend miles into the perilous Oxide Trenches to unlock the primary thermal valve before the forest dies.

But in the deep dark, physics demands a brutal toll. No magic will save them—only sacrifice, raw machinery, and a devastating calculation error that alters their world forever.

The Copper Root is a breathtaking, bittersweet middle-grade sci-fi fantasy that balances advanced ecological physics with a profound emotional depth. Perfect for fans of steampunk, resilient heroes, and audiobooks with rich sound design, this story teaches young readers that when the world changes permanently, survival isn’t about winning—it’s about finding a new rhythm to move forward together.
