About this Map

The Shattered Sea is the central setting of Joe Abercrombie's Shattered Sea trilogy, beginning with Half a King. This map illustrates the complex coastline and numerous islands that define the region. It shows the major kingdoms such as Gettland, ruled from Thorlby, and its rival Vansterland. To the south lies Throvenland and the Shends, while Sagenmark sits to the east. The map captures the rugged, northern atmosphere of the setting, with its deep fjords, dense forests, and mountainous terrain. Key locations like Hemenholm, Vulsgard, and Roystock are clearly marked, providing a comprehensive geographical overview of the world where Yarvi, Thorn, and Brand's journeys take place.
