Description
Deep in the depths of the great sea, a unique culture thrived, existing parallel to but distinct from that of the land. This collection of stories brings together tales of the people of the sea and their descendants on land, weaving together elements of history, myth, and magic. The poetry and music of the sea are woven throughout these stories, which feature a range of characters including heroic fishermen, capricious witches, foundling mermaids, and warrior women. A terrifying sea-serpent and the enigmatic white cow of the sea also make appearances in this captivating collection of tales. These stories offer a glimpse into a world where the boundaries between land and sea are blurred, and the magic of the waters is woven into everyday life.
