Welcome to a world made dangerous by the sea and by those who wish to profit from it. Where a young girl must find her place and her family while trying to survive in a world built for men.

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.

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.

MY THOUGHTS & REVIEW

Although I’m not a regular YA fantasy reader, I like to stretch my wings now and then and give books I usually wouldn’t pick up a chance. Because you never know.

This time it was FABLE and I’m really glad I decided to go for it, because I ended up really enjoying it. And I’m actually exited about the sequel.

I think the parts I enjoyed the most about this book was the pirate vibe, the well written story, and the intriguing characters, especially Fable and West.

Fable was such a strong heroine. A survivalist, skilled and smart. Her backstory was really interesting, equally fascinating and dark. And I admired her for following her goal. The way she found a spot on West’s crew says a lot about her personality – she was tough and determined.

Speaking about the crew, which was small, but fierce, I’m looking forward to reading more about them. They were loyal, almost like family, and they kept secrets when needed.

The story was wonderfully original, with the Sea as backdrop. There was so much to love – action, deadly rivalry, a father who doesn’t seem to care about Fable, a new crew to fit in, treasures, and maybe even a love story.

If I had the chance of jumping into Namesake (the sequel and final book in this duology) I would have!! I was literally hooked, and can’t wait to find out what will happen next.
