The People of the Sea
Author: Scott Marcano
Infinity Publishing
ISBN: 0-7414-2730-3
The following review was contributed by: Tami Brady: CLICK TO VIEW Tami Brady's Reviews Prophecy states that someday the People will once again live on dry land.
Forced onto the sea generations ago by savage enemies, the People have built
floating island homes that resemble their homeland in every way from the
grass and trees that stood on the land to the houses and businesses that
once flourished there. Despite their success, the People have always
believed the prophecy to be true and deeply hoped that one day they would
make their homes on land once again.
Though the prophecy does give hope that this event might some day come to
pass, it also hints that a great battle must be fought. The end result of
which lies in the hands of Ursa, a young Sha-woman just coming into her
powers, and her best friend Tumarak, a young man trying to live up to the
image of his famous father.
The People of the Sea is fantasy filled with lots of imaginative human-like
species, magic, and adventurous battles. I particularly liked how destiny
keeps leading these individuals along, bringing them together, and
separating them at just the most opportune/inopportune times to raise the
level of action.
