Far Beyond the Sea
A new literary fantasy set in the world of Lady of the Deep
FAR BEYOND THE SEA is another proto-Celtic pre-telling, tracing medieval sunken city narratives like Ys from Breton legend and Lyonesse from Arthurian/Cornish legend, back to an imagined bronze age origin contemporary with other world flood myths. This historical cli-fi novel follows a revered druidess through the late bronze age collapse as she navigates the volcanic winter and other apocalyptic phenomena that portend the end of her world, and the inevitable sinking of her beloved city into the depths of the Otherworldly sea.
FAR BEYOND THE SEA thrusts the formidable female spiritual leader of Lauren Groff's Matrix into the cataclysm of N. K. Jemison's The Fifth Season, in a Celtic world akin to that of The Morrigan by Kim Curran.
