MERMAID MOON - SUSANN COKAL KARTONIERT (TB)

An award-winning author tells of a mermaid who leaves the sea in search of her landish mother
in a captivating tale spun with beautiful prose  lush descriptions  empathy  and keen wit.
Blood calls to blood  charm calls to charm. It is the way of the world. Come close and tell us
your dreams. Sanna is a mermaid ¿ but she is only half seavish. The night of her birth  a
sea-witch cast a spell that made Sannäs people  including her landish mother  forget how and
where she was born. Now Sanna is sixteen and an outsider in the seavish matriarchy  and she is
determined to find her mother and learn who she is. She apprentices herself to the witch to
learn the magic of making and unmaking  and with a new pair of legs and a quest to complete for
her teacher  she follows a clue that leads her ashore on the Thirty-Seven Dark Islands. There 
as her fellow mermaids wait in the sea  Sanna stumbles into a wall of white roses thirsty for
blood  a hardscrabble people hungry for miracles  and a baroness who will do anything to live
forever. From the author of the Michael L. Printz Honor Book The Kingdom of Little Wounds comes
a gorgeously told tale of belonging  sacrifice  fear  hope  and mortality.
