Fable

Product Information

I looked over his head to the barrier islands, where the masts of trading ships tipped and swayed in the rough wind. The Marigold wasn’t there yet, but by sunrise, she would be. I pulled the coin from my purse and, with gritted teeth, dropped it into Koy’s palm. By now, he’d made so much copper off me that I’d practically paid for half of his skiff. The crew and others drink a rye-derived beverage on occasion. And in some cases, they get quite tipsy from it. A disappointed Fable drinks to excess one night and gets drunk to the point of passing out. She pays the painful physical price the next day. Adrienne loves all kinds of books, some of which include: “Harry Potter”, “Six of Crows”, “Little Women”, and “The Glass Castle”. They survive and arrive in Ceros. Fable goes to Saint’s office and waits for him there. While there, she takes her mother’s sea dragon pendant. When Saint arrives, he refuses to allow Fable to crew for him. He says it was a mistake to let her mother on board his ship, and he won’t allow Fable to either. Fable learns that Clove is dead. Adrienne’s best ideas come to her while she is driving. The idea for her first novel, “Sky in the Deep” came while she was driving during a rain storm while she drove on a country road and Laurel’s “Into the Hills” was playing. Adrienne pulled the car over to the road, scribbled some notes on a torn envelope, and drove home. She called up her critique partner, and that was all it took.

Fable Quotes by Adrienne Young - Goodreads Fable Quotes by Adrienne Young - Goodreads

She has enjoyed writing since elementary school and had some awesome teachers that encouraged her at it. It was in the fourth grade that she stared at a book in the library and imagined that it was her name on it. It was not until she was about 24 years old that she tried doing something about that dream, which is one she never really let go of. Publication was not even something she dared to try until some years later; a time that she worked on many projects, and got rejected a lot before selling a book. I’d made more coin off the traders on the Marigold in the last three months with this stash than I had in the last two years altogether. Another few weeks and I’d never have to dive these reefs again. 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.Koncom vlaňajška obletela kniha Fable slovenský bookstagram.

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. Fable has found a large vein of gemstone in the sea, and the other castaways become suspicious and plan to steal it. 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. 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.

Fable (Adrienne Young) | Martinus Kniha: Fable (Adrienne Young) | Martinus

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. 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. The world of the Narrows is a dark and violent place. People are slashed or stabbed by small knives. A man is bound and put in a trunk, then thrown overboard to drown. We hear of someone hanging himself and of a woman having her face scarred by a red-hot knife blade. And there’s a constant sense of threat and danger that hangs in the air around the various seaports. 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.

Besides those last fateful words, Saint had also given Fable, however, five rules to live by: rules she had been reciting from the time she was big enough to climb into the masts with her mother. Fable runs into Zola in a tavern, and he tries to talk her into joining his crew. She refuses, and he hints that West won’t be sailing much longer.
