The Mermaid, the Witch and the Sea (Paperback)

Bloody, poetic, rich with pirate politics, captured mermaids and a witch who wields the magic of stories, Tokuda-Hall's debut is original, satisfying and romantic - a swashbuckler with great imagination and emotional depth. * The Guardian *
"The Mermaid, the Witch, and the Sea will take you on the journey of a lifetime. Maggie Tokuda-Hall has created characters I've never seen before, then put them in an adventure that feels more real than real life and twice as unpredictable. I wanted to live in the world of this book forever, and I can't stop obsessing about the rich tapestry of pirates, mermaids, witches, and conniving nobles who inhabit it. The Mermaid, the Witch, and the Sea might just remind you of why you fell in love with adventure in the first place and change how you think about the genre forever. I envy anyone who's getting to experience this incredible book for the first time." * Charlie Jane Anders, author of the Nebula Award-winning novel All the Birds in the Sky *
"An utterly romantic and breathless adventure that wouldn't let me sleep until I'd devoured every last word. It's a journey of love, magic, and self-discovery unlike any I've ever read." * Dahlia Adler, author of Under the Lights and editor of His Hideous Heart *
One of the best YA books I've read this year -- Katherine Webber
[...] this was a fast paced, enjoyable read with some thoughtful and relevant issues raised. A book which will most appeal to teenage girls into adventure/fantasy/ romance around Year 9 and above. * The School Librarian *
