Good morning everyone! As I might have mentioned once or twice (ok a lot) I’m a huge of Greek Mythology re-tellings so when I heard of this fantastic sounding book I knew I had to get a copy of it. My picture doesn’t do it justice as the cover is really beautiful with lots of gold foil on it which contrasts so well with the dark blue spredges. I’m hoping to read this really soon.
What was the last special edition you bought?
Book Synopsis:
In the cursed kingdom of Ithaca, each spring brings the hanging of twelve maidens, a gift to the vengeful Poseidon. But when Leto awakens from her death on the shore of a long-forgotten island, its enigmatic keeper Melantho tells her that there’s only one way the curse can be broken. Leto must kill the last prince of Ithaca . . .
In Lies We Sing to the Sea, debut author Sarah Underwood delivers a thrilling and breathtaking tale that will enthral readers from the very first page as they are transported to the cursed shores of Ithaca.
A reclamation of a story from thousands of years ago, Lies We Sing to the Sea is about love and fate, grief and sacrifice, and, ultimately, the power we must find within.
