A cozy, richly imagined fantasy where a young selkie girl must save her family from a vengeful king.
Brigit knows all the old fisherman songs and legends by heart- sea goddess, warriors, and people who are not quite human. But Brigit also knows the truth. It's evident in the webbing between her fingers-webbing that must be cut. She's the daughter of a selkie. A truth she must keep secret from everyone.
But there is another secret growing in the village. A terrible one that will invite the wrath of the Great Selkie, bringing storm, sickness, and death. To protect those she loves, Brigit must find a way to Sule Skerrie, the land of selkies, to confront the Great Selkie and bring the truth-all of it-into the light.
Like sitting by a warm fireplace, The Selkie's Daughter is an imaginative fantasy, steeped in Celtic mythology and set in Nova Scotia. Debut Linda Crotta Brennan has crafted a magical portrait of a brave girl coming into her own. Perfect for fans of mermaids and Studio Ghibli-esque stories.
