Fable

Product Information

Rovnako ako mnohí z vás aj ja som si Fable pri zmienke o vydaní pridala do svojho wishlistu, vďaka téme mora, námorníkov a dobrodružstva! No po dočítaní nemám úplne ten správny pocit, či toto bolo to presne to, čo som očakávala. You weren’t made for this world,” 17-year-old Fable’s father told her. She never fully understood what he meant by that. She simply took it as a strange explanation for what he eventually did to her. And all that he’s forced her to endure over the last four years. 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. The crew and others drink a rye-derived beverage on occasion. And in some cases, they get quite tipsy from it. A disappointed Fable drinks to excess one night and gets drunk to the point of passing out. She pays the painful physical price the next day. West’s crew consists of Willa (who we later find out is West’s sister), Hamish, Paj, and Auster. At first, no one trusts her, but she pulls her weight onboard the ship, and they slowly begin to trust her more.

Fable - Plugged In Fable - Plugged In

Raised to be a warrior, seventeen-year-old Eelyn fights alongside her Aska clansmen in an ancient, rivalry against the Riki clan. Her life is brutal but simple: fight and survive. Until the day she sees the impossible on the battlefield―her brother, fighting with the enemy―the brother she watched die five years ago.There’s use of the word “b–tard,” but nothing else that might be considered typically “sailor worthy.” A dark maritime fantasy...immersive...and rich in sensory details. For readers who can’t get enough of strong female protagonists..." - Kirkus I looked over his head to the barrier islands, where the masts of trading ships tipped and swayed in the rough wind. The Marigold wasn’t there yet, but by sunrise, she would be. I pulled the coin from my purse and, with gritted teeth, dropped it into Koy’s palm. By now, he’d made so much copper off me that I’d practically paid for half of his skiff.

They take their fortune to Dern to trade for coppers. They do this carefully to try to avoid notice. Willa confides in Fable that she plans to leave the Marigoldand go home to Ceros. Myslím si, že celý príbeh by som si užila omnoho viac, ak by som bola mladšia, kvôli atmosfére a charakterom. Fable som si predstavovala kúsok inak, aj keď netvrdím, že sa mi niektoré pasáže nepáčili a nedocenila som ich. Avšak autorke musím vytknúť pomenej priamej reči a opisy, v ktorých čírou náhodou akurát pripomenula nejakú vlastnosť respektíve schopnosť hlavnej hrdinky, ktoré mohli byť pokojne spomenuté na začiatku. Taktiež na tento zoznam musím pridať aj vzťah medzi Fable a Westom, ktorý bol zvláštne unáhlený a nenadchol ma. The wind whipped around me as I stood, pulling strands of my dark auburn hair around my face. I took hold of the mast and leaned over the side, my eyes mapping the water as it raced beneath us. West tells Fable that he named his ship Marigoldafter his and Willa’s sister, who died when she was four years old. How did Fable end?She has enjoyed writing since elementary school and had some awesome teachers that encouraged her at it. It was in the fourth grade that she stared at a book in the library and imagined that it was her name on it. It was not until she was about 24 years old that she tried doing something about that dream, which is one she never really let go of. Publication was not even something she dared to try until some years later; a time that she worked on many projects, and got rejected a lot before selling a book. As an author, Young’s strength is in her ability to craft both strong female protagonists and worlds that are filled with realistic details." - Culturess Zola hears about the sails and sends men to burn the Marigold. It barely makes it away from the shores of Ceros unscathed.

Adrienne loves all kinds of books, some of which include: “Harry Potter”, “Six of Crows”, “Little Women”, and “The Glass Castle”.Those may seem harsh lessons from a parent. But those are the things that have kept Fable alive for the last four years. She’s learned to make her way as a dredger: a diver who digs semi-valuable stones and abalone from the reef and exchanges them for a few coppers. And she’s learned to hide away what little treasure she may gain in the hope of someday putting this island of torment behind her. Besides those last fateful words, Saint had also given Fable, however, five rules to live by: rules she had been reciting from the time she was big enough to climb into the masts with her mother.
