Description

In the summer of 1807, the Explorer, a ship from Her Majesty's Navy recovers a young shipwreck off the coast of Siam, Abel, who can only remember his name. He soon becomes friends with the first officer, acting as a captain because the commander of the ship has apparently absconded with the ship’s treasure. Abel returns to England with the Explorer and finds accommodation at the inn run by the three fugitive captain's daughters. Well before he can recover his memory, however, he will discover something deeply disturbing about himself, and he will understand the true nature of some of the people who helped him. A haunting and intense book that digs into the soul of the protagonists as well as the reader, with a generous helping of good ol' fashioned salty adventure along with many a shanty sung and a sprinkling of magic dust. Presented in a handsome old style, with a worn-looking hardcover, as if taken from a ship captain’s library. An uplifting, enthralling escape.

Thank you, Netgalley, for a complementary copy in exchange for an honest opinion!!

Wow, what did I just read!!!! My emotions are all over the place. This is the first graphic novel that made me cry. The story is heartwarming, the characters are amazing, I love the illustrations (all in pencil)!!! If I could I would give this one 10 Goodreads stars!!! I hope this couple will be able to launch more of their graphic novels on the English-speaking market. This story would also make a great illustrated prose novel.
