The Sahara Event map

🌍 Bring The Sahara Event to Life

I’m so proud of the map I’ve produced for my latest Eden Black thriller, The Sahara Event. Anything that brings the world of my books to life is always so much fun.

It’s printed in full colour on high-quality A2 paper (16.5″ × 23.3″). If you’re a fan of the book, you love fictional cartography, or you just want to add a hint of mystery to your walls, then this is totally for you.

One reader told me they’ve bought a copy to keep beside them as they read The Sahara Event, so they can see where the action takes place at a glance (which I think is a brilliant idea!)

🕌 Explore Marrakesh Medina

Part of the map is a hand-drawn layout of the Marrakesh Medina, complete with major landmarks like Jemaa el-Fnaa Square, Koutoubia Mosque, Madrasa Ben Youssef, the winding Medina streets, and Place des Épices. All these places feature in the story, so it was important to me that you knew where they were. Various icons showcase the kinds of things the Medina is famous for—camels, cats, and classic Moroccan architecture.

🌀 Journey to the Eye of the Sahara

In one corner, we head to the Richat Structure (the Eye of the Sahara) in Mauritania, alongside nearby regions including Western Sahara, Morocco, Mali, and the Ouadane airfield. While I took pains to describe this in the book, I wanted to show you what it looks like—I feel it truly is one of the world’s great unsung legends.

📜 A Glimpse Into the Ancient World

The upper-left inset features a stylised take on Pomponius Mela’s enigmatic world map from 43 CE, showing “Europia,” “Africa,” “Hispania,” “Gallia,” and “Atlantae,” complete with old-world coastlines, mountains, ships, and mythical sea creatures.
