In many fantasy novels, in my experience, a map will either be rendered in landscape across two pages or in landscape, rendered sideways on one page. There's no discernible reason that the latter couldn't be done in an ebook.


I really hope that publishers figure out a way to render maps - along with the ability to quickly get to that map and back again without losing your page...
