About this deal

Those may seem harsh lessons from a parent. But those are the things that have kept Fable alive for the last four years. She’s learned to make her way as a dredger: a diver who digs semi-valuable stones and abalone from the reef and exchanges them for a few coppers. And she’s learned to hide away what little treasure she may gain in the hope of someday putting this island of torment behind her.

Fable - Plugged In Fable - Plugged In

As the daughter of the most powerful trader in the Narrows, the sea is the only home seventeen-year-old Fable has ever known. It’s been four years since the night she watched her mother drown during an unforgiving storm. The next day her father abandoned her on a legendary island filled with thieves and little food. To survive she must keep to herself, learn to trust no one and rely on the unique skills her mother taught her. The only thing that keeps her going is the goal of getting off the island, finding her father and demanding her rightful place beside him and his crew. To do so Fable enlists the help of a young trader named West to get her off the island and across the Narrows to her father. She loves food, as well as history, has a shameless coffee addiction, and loves to travel. Adrienne finds that she is obsessed with the past, and that obsession has found its way into her work and influenced it. During the time she is not writing, she will be at antique fairs (to find old books), sipping wine during long dinners, on her yoga mat, or at art museums that she likes the most. She is someone that enjoys learning, as well, and will buy any book about art history she can find. She is enraptured by our connection with that which is around us and each other as well as the human spirit. The wind whipped around me as I stood, pulling strands of my dark auburn hair around my face. I took hold of the mast and leaned over the side, my eyes mapping the water as it raced beneath us. She finds writing to be a kind of sanctuary for a soul that is solitary, as it is a chance to leave this life here and tell someone else’s story. Whether it is fact or fiction. She finds that she is transfixed while she creates a fantasy world’s walls and the heroes that make up the world with her laptop’s keys.

She was born and raised in the state of Texas and became a California girl. She lives with her four kids and her husband (who makes documentary films, and together, they all take in the rays of the California sun).

But her father s rivalries and the dangers of his trading enterprise have only multiplied since she last saw him and Fable soon finds that West isn't who he seems. Together, they will have to survive more than the treacherous storms that haunt the Narrows if they're going to stay alive. Rovnako ako mnohí z vás aj ja som si Fable pri zmienke o vydaní pridala do svojho wishlistu, vďaka téme mora, námorníkov a dobrodružstva! No po dočítaní nemám úplne ten správny pocit, či toto bolo to presne to, čo som očakávala. A dark maritime fantasy...immersive...and rich in sensory details. For readers who can’t get enough of strong female protagonists..." - Kirkus Now, he’s mere days away from getting everything his father ever dreamed for him: a ship of his own, a crew, and a license that names him as one of the first Narrows-born traders. But when a young dredger from the Unnamed Sea with more than one secret crosses his path, Elias’ faith will be tested like never before. The greater the pull he feels toward her, the farther he drifts from the things he’s spent the last three years working for.

La liste des tomes

West confesses his love for Fable and says the only thing he’s truly afraid of is something happening to her. That was all he had to offer. And in the four hard years since, Fable has struggled to fulfill his words in a nasty world where every good thing you gain is stolen from you, and every precious morsel of food must be protected or hidden. Fable tells the others that she will be searching for Saint on Ceros, but she doesn’t tell them that he is her father. They don’t believe he will take her on. Fable eventually discovers that the Merigoldis a shadow ship that belongs to Saint. West is deep in debt to the man. The crew performs side jobs to try to raise money. As an author, Young’s strength is in her ability to craft both strong female protagonists and worlds that are filled with realistic details." - Culturess There’s use of the word “b–tard,” but nothing else that might be considered typically “sailor worthy.”
