But when a dangerous tide threatens Ys, the queen instead tasks Nolwenn with collecting rare seasilk - enough to shield the city from the deadly sea monsters that threaten it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDetermined to fulfil her task, Nolwenn searches for the seasilk, only to be attacked by the very sea monsters the queen warned her about. She's saved by Morvan, a sea-dwelling korrigez with the torso of a human and the tail of a fish, who drags her deep beneath the sea to the coral palace of Ys-below. Although terrified and homesick, Nolwenn can't deny that Ys-below is strange and beautiful - and so is Morvan. And the more time Nolwenn spends below the surface, the less she is sure she wants to leave . . .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs danger draws ever nearer and Ys remains precariously unprotected, Nolwenn must decide between her heart and her home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eAs lush as it is lyrical, this is an atmospheric retelling of the legendary lost city Ys, following two lovers and their connection between two different worlds - one on land and one beneath the waves.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lauren Wiesebron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47201227473074,"sku":"9781399723220","price":356.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9191\/8002\/files\/9781399723220.jpg?v=1776695054","url":"https:\/\/www.wordsworth.co.za\/products\/the-palace-beneath-the-sea-trade-paperback","provider":"Wordsworth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
