Publisher Description

In a world of sea monsters, mermaids and lost islands, ghost ships, leviathans and weather witches, only the impetuous, the brave or the mad seek adventure at sea.

After generations of friction, the leaders of two lands meet in the holy city of Ishalem to bring an end to the bloodshed and to divide the world between them.

Sadly, this new spirit of fellowship is shortlived. A single tragic accident destroys, in minutes, the peace that took years to build. The world is once more cast into the fires of war - and this time the flames may burn until nothing remains. From the highest lord to the lowest servant, no man or woman will be unchanged by the conflict.

But while war rages across both continents, a great quest will defy storms and sea serpents to venture beyond the horizon, where no maps exist - to search for a land out of legend. It is a perilous undertaking, but there will always be the impetuous, the brave and the mad who are willing to leave their homes to explore the unknown.

Even unto the edge of the world . . .

"Very interesting concept. A high seas adventure combined with a crusade is an idea that hasn't really been explored in the fantasy genre. I'm interested to see where he takes this."

    " I was blessed with the opportunity to get an ARC of this book. I am currently working on a full review. "

  • Overall Performance: 2 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 5

    " Decent enough. Full of religious nut-cases and horrific war crimes all in aid of a pointless war - which is sadly how people really do behave. I'm not sure that I will follow up the rest of the series, purely based on the feelings of futility it inspires. "

    " I dropped this book after reading 75pp. (All of part one). As intrigued as I am about sea serpents and naval adventuring I just was not in the mood to spend three books' worth of time on this. "

    " Weighty, like all his books! Interesting setting; not loving it, but enjoying it enough to request the other two in the series from the library. "

    " Decent story in a light fantasy (monsters and some extinct creatures exist, limited magic, no modern technology) setting. I was expecting something with a bit more sci-fi from this author but I'll pick up the rest of the trilogy when it comes out. "

    " Mr. Andersen character and world building is outstanding. I enjoyed the real world story elements, i.e. not everything is rosey and works out, but is instead gritty and dirty. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " Too many stories for just one book. And the worst part is, they dont all tie in at the end. Will have more to report after I read the next one. "
