“Centuries ago, the First Warlord of Seiki had signed the Great Edict and closed the island to all but the Lacustrine and the Mentish, to protect its people from the Draconic plague.” He wants to tell the Warlord of Seiiki to send the dragons to help Queen Sabran.

Sulyard claims Virtudom is in trouble – the world is in trouble. Niclays learns the outsider is Triam Sulyard, a squire for the Queen of Inys, the same Queen who banished Niclays to the Province of Seiiki. When a friend shows up at his door asking him to hide an outsider he promises to keep the man hidden for one night in return for silver, which will allow him the funds he needs to get the necessary ingredients to make the elixir of life. “No woman should be made to fear that she was not enough.” The outsider can’t be allowed to roam in case he has the red sickness, so Tané finds a way to sneak him onto the artificial island called Orisima. Finding a way to hide him until after Choosing Day is the best option. At the sea, Tané finds an outsider, but can’t tell authorities or they’ll know she left seclusion. Twelve of the Sea Guardians will become dragon riders. On Choosing Day she’ll have two options: a life of learning and prayer on Feather Island or defending Seiiki from sickness and invasion as a High Sea Guard. Believed to be a sign from the gods, Tané was chosen to train the High Sea Guard. She survived because she chased a butterfly to the sea. Her parents and entire village died in a fire when she was a child. › Tané wanted to go into the sea one more time before Choosing Day. “The stranger came out of the sea like a water ghost, barefoot and wearing the scars of his journey.”

I definitely want to own a physical copy. › First, can we talk about this cover?! I mean…wow…breath-taking. Published: February 2019 by Bloomsbury Publishing
