As the daughter of the most powerful trader in the Narrows, the sea is the only home seventeen-year-old Fable has ever known. It’s been four years since the night she watched her mother drown during an unforgiving storm. The next day her father abandoned her on a legendary island filled with thieves and little food. To survive she must keep to herself, learn to trust no one and rely on the unique skills her mother taught her. The only thing that keeps her going is the goal of getting off the island, finding her father and demanding her rightful place beside him and his crew. To do so Fable enlists the help of a young trader named West to get her off the island and across the Narrows to her father. 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. Welcome to a world made dangerous by the sea and by those who wish to profit from it. Where a young girl must find her place and her family while trying to survive in a world built for men.

This book has earned a permanent home among my shelves. If you enjoy pirate adventure books with fantasy vibes, then you must read Fable!
Separated from her family and alone on a dangerous island, she quickly learns how master her trading skills in order to survive. A few years later, she begins her quest to find her family and experiences some close-calls, shady encounters, and lots of adventure along the way.
Not only is Fable a fantastic protagonist with her admirable strength and determination, but the narration of the story is superb too. The author successfully brings Fable to life while creating a world that is both intriguing, as well as dynamic. The result is a beautifully written story that will linger long after you finish.
*Fable is the first book in Adrienne Young’s newest duology. The second book (Namesake) is set to release in March 2021.
