Growing up alone in a world of rising seas, Elixane dreams of finding out what happened to her long, lost sisters. When she receives a message from one of them, begging to be rescued from the King of Misery, Elixane cannot ignore her plea.
In the company of her guardians, the Marques of Luck and Marquesa of Misfortune, Elixane sets out on an adventure that will take her to other magical realms. There, she must face the King of the Air and the King of the Sea, break curses, survive impossible trials, and most of all, reunite her sisters while discovering herself—and her own magical powers.

Recenzii
“Tierney’s first full-length novel brings new material to the fairy-tale retelling table but has the feel of a classic. With tender family reunions and a sweet queer romance, this fable won’t leave anyone feeling miserable.” —Library Journal
“Tierney’s debut is written in the cadence of a fairy tale, with everything cast in threes, everything coated in the rich, beautiful imagery of pearls, feathers, and fool’s gold. Fans of Naomi Novik and other sensuous, emotional, and wry fantasy stories wrapped in the trappings of classic folklore will fall hard for this story about the power of love, sisterly and romantic, that’s based on a classic Portuguese fairy tale.” —Booklist, starred review

Descriere
When Elixane was too young to remember, her elder sisters each picked a flower and were whisked away: Borboleta to marry the King of the Air, Adelina to marry the King of the Sea, and her favourite sister Dores to marry the King of Misery. One day Elixane receives a message asking for help, so she sets out to rescue her sisters. She’ll have to break several unbreakable curses—and, perhaps, find a magical love of her own.
