The first book in a seafaring fantasy trilogy that George R. R. Martin has described as โeven better than the Farseer TrilogyโI didnโt think that was possible.โ
Bingtown is a hub of exotic trade and home to a merchant nobility famed for its liveshipsโrare vessels carved from wizardwood, which ripens magically into sentient awareness. Now the fortunes of one of Bingtownโs oldest families rest on the newly awakened liveship Vivacia.
For Althea Vestrit, the ship is her rightful legacy. For Altheaโs young nephew, wrenched from his religious studies and forced to serve aboard the Vivacia, the ship is a life sentence. But the fate of the shipโand the Vestritsโmay ultimately lie in the hands of an outsider: the ruthless buccaneer captain Kennit, who plans to seize power over the Pirate Isles by capturing a liveship and bending it to his will.
Donโt miss the magic of the Liveship Traders Trilogy:
SHIP OF MAGIC โข MAD SHIP โขย SHIP OF DESTINY
