The Deep Paths

A Last Route Novel

De: James Heppe-Smith

Some paths only open when you're ready to walk them.

The Oldwood has always been the most dangerous stretch of the Last Route. Paths that move when no one is looking. Shrines that answer questions no one asked out loud. A forest that remembers every courier who has ever passed through it.

Wren Ashwick has learned how to survive the Oldwood. She listens. She leaves offerings. She trusts the hedgehog with silver-spined quills who knows the way better than any map. But survival isn’t the same as understanding—and the forest is no longer content to let her pass without asking something in return.

When an old shrine reawakens and a forgotten path reveals itself, Wren is forced to confront the deeper truth behind the route she walks, the magic she carries, and the quiet bond that ties her to the land itself. Some deliveries can’t be carried in a satchel. Some must be made by choosing where—and who—you stand with when the way forward isn’t clear.

The forest listens. The route remembers. And some paths change you forever.

The Deep Path is the sixth book in The Last Route series—cozy fantasy about found family, slow-burn sapphic romance, gentle magic, and the courage it takes to keep walking when the world asks you to step deeper than before.
