And a teaser from the prologue:
The People of
the Rocks live above the sea in the rocks from which they get their name—a
collection of bone-white shards of hulking stone that protrude from the
jewel-green water like the teeth of a rotting jawbone, sea-stained and
crumbling even in their glory. The village is carved into these rocks, carved
deep like the tunnels of ants into the earth, and the effect is that of thousands
of pin-pricks of light when it is night and the sea and sky are dark. Travelers
say it looks as though someone has folded the sky around the rocks like a
blanket, and all the stars are on fire.
The melody of
the waves lulls the babies to sleep at night in their seaweed-fiber cradles,
and the rush of the tide makes them wake in the morning. The People of the
Rocks sing love songs about the sea, and they play in its shallows as children,
but as men they grow to fear its power and its secrets.
If only we’d
known how many secrets the sea held.
