About this ebook
Truth is more dangerous than fiction...in this exhilarating upper YA fantasy that will capture fans of Shadow and Bone and Dark Water Daughter
In ancient times, the Elder Wrights breathed their magic into the fabric of the seven seas. Now what was once an ocean of plenty is slowly becoming a sea of death, and the Talin—a race of hidden mages—are beginning to starve.
And for the first time ever, one of their own has no magic.
Ostracized by her own people, Nieve is certain that the old stories hide a missing piece of the puzzle. It’s just a matter of unlocking the secret.
But when a stranger comes sailing into their harbor, Nieve’s world is suddenly blown wide open. Now she’s sailing on the seven seas—with a too-charming, swashbuckling pirate, a group of strange misfits, and a woman who claims to be one of the Elder Wrights.
It’s like Nieve is living one of the stories she’s always loved...only now, she’s weaving a legend of her own.
Except that the old tales don’t mention those journeys that end in tragedy, a king’s calculated interference, or a world poised on the tides of death.
And they certainly don’t mention mutineers with a talent for stealing a girl’s heart...and lying all the while.

FMC is Nieve who is part of the Talin race who are secret mages that control the power of the ocean. The ocean is now dying out being their main food source and Nieve must try to save her people. This YA fantasy has great banter, world building , mult-dimensional characters, love and a dazzling storyline. This book is full of twists and turn with plenty of magic. A total masterpiece for a debut novel by L.E. Sterling and I can't wait for her next book as this author definitely got me hooked!
