Four years ago, Fable was abandoned on the skeevy island of Jeval by her father. In order to survive she learned to keep to her self and master the skill of dredging she learned from her mother. With enough money saved up, she bargains with West, the captain of the Marigold for passage to Ceros where she hoped to earn her place on her father's ship. On her journey across the narrows Fable realises that West and his crew are keeping secrets and that the world of traders and merchants is more corrupt than she thought.
I absolutely loved this! I've not read a lot of books about pirates so that whole aspect was a lot of fun. I loved all the descriptions of life at sea - it was so atmospheric and I genuinely felt like I was there on the Marigold with them. The corruption and darkness that unfolded through the book was so interesting and I was so invested in what was happening. I really liked Fable as a character and how determined she was to survive in this world. West and the Marigold crew added a lot to the story and we're all unique and interesting characters. The romance is definitely a very small part of this book but I really liked how everything happened so gradually.
Picking up the sequel immediately because I cannot with that cliff hanger...

Alright this was such a good read , I would said I enjoy the plot a lot. West and Fable interactions as well. It has been a while since I read it , so my review would not be long. But definitely a series to read.

This book is extremely fun following the adventures of a girl named Fable as she tries to navigate a harsh community and life as a pirate. Strong female lead with lovable found family. Great young adult fantasy.

Strong female character. Wasn’t sure where this book was going, but interesting. Figured out quite a bit about half way through. Does every book written in 2020 need to contain a gay couple? Interesting set of problems to solve.
