The Quiet has such a nice, magical feel throughout. In many places it perfectly encapsulates the eerieness of dark water, and has a haunting yet oddly comforting vibe. If you like Celtic and pagan mythos and the stillness of the sea in the morning, definitely pick this one up.
Patience Stewart, Author of Chromatia
Ilia has never feared the sea.
But when her sister vanishes on a clear night under a river of stars known as the Quiet, Ilia is the only person in her village who believes Adana is still alive. To find the truth, Ilia will wade into the ancient lore of her people armed only with her childhood journal, her wits, and a trio of enchanted relics that have lost their magic. Adana is out there somewhere—but so are the mythical, fearsome beings who dwell in the deep.
A second-world fairy tale about believing in magic after we’ve grown up and about healing the old wounds that haunt us with the help of love we find along the way.
